Docs.google.com works great on iOS 13 Safari Desktop Version, but drive.google.com still kicks me out to the app I’m loving the ability to use the browser version of Google Docs, Slides and Sheets in the iOS 13 Safari Desktop mode. The only thing I’ve noticed is that if you try to open a file from Google Drive instead of docs.google.com, it force opens the file in the app. Has anyone figured out or does anyone have any ideas about how to get the files in drive.google.com in Safari?

Uninstall the Docs app. Unless there’s a setting inside the docs app… Or you could try copying and pasting the links into Safari.
