warm.and friendly atmosphere and staff... food was amazing and fresh also. highly recomended.
The range of vegan options is huge and the food was delicious. We had a grain salad, the everything bagel with vegan cream cheese and a chickpea salad. We also ate at Tiny Pony whilst we were in town and it was no way near as good as this, portions were tiny and way less flavour. Highly recommend Frontier Cafe if you're vegan, and you can eat in or take away
It's a very cozy place to hang when you need a bite. The absolute best BLT in the high desert, believe me, I've tried them all!!! Doesn't matter what day or month I come, it's consistent, mouthwatering, and satisfying. That herb mayo hits the spot and they use the very best ingredients, like juicy heirloom tomatoes, soft sourdough, a healthy mix of greens, and the bacon is crispy and plentiful. 🤤 Staff is friendly, bathrooms available for customers.

Frontier Café is a beloved spot in Joshua Tree, known for its delicious food, excellent coffee, and exceptional staff. The café offers a spacious and laid-back atmosphere, both inside and out, making it perfect for casual gatherings or solo activities like reading a book. Customers say it is a very cozy place to hang when you need a bite, and a perfect pit stop before a tromp through the high desert. Vegan and vegetarian options are plentiful, including the highly praised vegan BLT and the tempeh BLT, both of which have received positive remarks from customers. Reviewers call the vegan BLT the best BLT in the high desert, praising its juicy heirloom tomatoes, soft sourdough, and crispy bacon. The everything bagel with vegan cream cheese, the grain salad, and the chickpea salad are also popular choices. The iced americano is a favorite for relaxing on the comfy seating. The condiment and utensil station is a thoughtful touch. Prices are very affordable, with the vegan BLT priced at $15, contributing to the café's reputation as a great value. The service is fast and friendly, with staff noted as being very kind and attentive. Bathrooms are available for customers. However, the dog policy can be unclear, leading to conflicting messages and confusion. Additionally, some customers have expressed confusion over the use of throw-away containers and cups, regardless of whether dining in or taking away. Despite these minor issues, Frontier Café remains a popular and comforting spot for visitors and locals alike.
