PHILZ OPENS LARGE NEW LOCATION ON CASTRO STREET
Beloved coffee shop, Philz has moved from its small 18th Street location to a larger storefront on Castro St, roughly twice the size of its former locale. The new Philz, which opens Thursday, October 8, will have four baristas making coffee at a time, instead of two, and offer much more outdoor seating to enjoy your Mint Mojito iced coffee. // 549 Castro Street, philzcoffee.com
