9 Best Cafes in Palm Desert

“Love everything about this place! The pastries are decious and freshly baked every day, the ambiance is beautiful, well lit with a great view, the staff is friendly, the customers are friendly... OH and of course the coffee and chai! My go to is either black dark roast or a dirty tiger spice (with three shots of espresso). It's fun to hang out here with wife and/or kids, or even pull out the laptop and work a bit.“

“Possibly the best family-oriented mexican restaurant on the Palm Desert strip. A warm and understanding service staff, as well as terrific music in the evenings that allows the kids to dance and go a little crazy. You've got to hand it to Las Casuelas Cafe, they've kept the music going in Palm Desert. And their serving sizes should be considered large. With a roomy climate controlled porch, it's never uncomfortable. Yup, it can get busy. But I've watched the staff handle hungry chaotic crowds perfectly. That takes experience and a staff that has worked together many years. This certainly must be a tribute to the owner of the restaurant; who really is committed not only to his restaurant, but the community that it serves. But honestly, It comes down to the guacamole, doesn't it? Las Casuelas Cafe has the best!“

“Great service. Yummy food. Reasonable price.“

“Pancakes! First time I went i ordered one of their specials. I regret to forget the name but it was delicious. The carne asada was flavorful and tender. The hash browns crispy and perfect. After I finished I saw a plate of pancakes go past and I indulged some more and my only regret was my lung pressing against my at capacity stomach. Worth it. Try the pancakes. Yall do great work here. Laura I wanna say it was Laura or Linda definitely an L name is a great member of your staff. On the spot friendly and warm. Anyone can be fake friendly. Genuine warmth from somebody you can never emulate, duplicate, nor fake. I dont even like going to this section of Palm Desert due to entitled drivers, traffic, and other trivial nuisance however when I am and I'm in the mood for continental diner food I enjoy eating here. No Doubt.“

“Stopped by this place with my boyfriend on a roadtrip by chance and we really enjoyed our drinks there!! The chocolate peanut butter protein shake with added banana was very delicious—has the protein, was refreshing and had a great consistency!! Also we were welcomed and served by the warmest and kindest lady and were able to converse with her a bit—definitely a memorable experience for both my boyfriend and I as we really felt at home there due to the cozy and friendly environment. Thank you very much! -Hanbe and Daniel“

“Old school diner. We used to go here years ago when we lived in Palm Desert. Same food today. Taco salad is my fave. Burger isn't as good as we remember. Ranch dressing tastes home-made and is great! Tacos were yummy. Great stop with kids. Diner itself is older...but clean. Great location when you want a good stop close to I-10!“
