What a vibe!!…read more Visiting Joshua Tree and had to make a stop here! Options for coffee or a cocktail, what a cool concept. They have cool art work and merch. Staff are super friendly and had great customer service. We tried the Banana nut latte, salted caramel cold brew, Arnold Palmer and a cocktail El Compsnero. All were super tasty! I would add a little extra swetner when getting a tea, but we enjoyed our mid day pick me up! The photo booth was so much fun! We had a blast getting our pics. Just overall a dope place!

Overhyped and not worth it…read more The place looks really nice inside, but unfortunately, that's about the only positive thing I can say. I ordered the blueberry hibiscus, and it was terrible there was barely any flavor at all. It was so bad that I ended up throwing it away, which felt like a complete waste of money. My friend ordered the matcha latte, and that was just as disappointing. The matcha was extremely watered down and had very little flavor. To make things worse, the cashier was rude and had a standoffish attitude, which made the experience even less enjoyable. The AC also wasn't working, so it was uncomfortable inside. Overall, this place is way overhyped. The interior is cute, but the drinks and customer service were a huge letdown. Definitely not worth the money or the hype.

The barista was super helpful with recommendations, and we ended up trying the First Roast, which had such nice chocolatey notes, and the iced chai latte, which was the perfect balance of sweetness and cinnamon for me!

**Coffee fix adventures continue...(In Joshua Tree!)…read more Very cute and quaint coffee shop, with a clean interior. Some patio seating out back seems shared with the restaurant space next door. I enjoyed the drinks here, but just found it a bit odd that my half-caf latte was more bitter than my husband's regular latte? I think the espresso here is a bit strong, and their coffee is considered decent for what you can get in the area. Forgot to take pics of all our drinks, whoopsie! The line was too long the next day we wanted to get some for our drive home, so we only tried it once. Parking is out front or around the block, which got busy & full over the holiday weekend.

Everything ordered was delicious and reasonably priced. I would definitely stop by again whenever I'm back in the area! Side note: Make sure you try the sourdough, so yummmmm!

The Mike's Mess was bland and the pancakes were dry and bland as well. I enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant, it felt like a rustic diner. But the food could be improved.

The woman at the counter, whose name I didn't get but who had pink and white striped hair, refused to serve my boyfriend even though the website said the cafe was open, the door sign said the cafe was open, and people were in the cafe itself eating and drinking coffee at a few of the tables. She said the cafe was closed because she was too busy, even though there were only a few people around. When I asked if it was possible to get coffee, she said alright but we should order the drip coffee because she wasn't very good at making anything else. While we sat and drank our coffees, a group of about six women came up and she let them order food and coffee for the group. A man was next in line and she told him the same thing she told my boyfriend: that she was busy and the cafe was closed. This pattern continued. She served women in groups of any size, but men who asked were told that the cafe was closed. This is unacceptable and I will not be returning, however nice the setting.

I honestly don't think I've made a single desert trip without stopping in at least once. Part of it is the location. Acme 62 and Hoof + Horn are both literally right next door and both great for gifts that say "I went to the desert" without going full souvenir shop. Pioneer Crossing Antiques is also nearby and was sadly closed this Wednesday, but I normally stop in whenever it's open. The proprietors are awesome and I always find something unique to take home. Food-wise, the lox bagel was a standout. Great ratio of cream cheese, capers, dill, thin-shaved red onion, plus a little side salad of arugula and radish that actually tasted fresh instead of feeling like decoration. The yogurt parfait was small but mighty, layered with berries and granola and substantial enough to feel like breakfast. Easy seating, dog friendly, and plenty of sandwiches and salads if you're not in a bagel mood. Tasty, fresh, quick, and just enough "we did something" energy before heading back to the Airbnb to relax and beat the heat.

Located next to the JT visitor center west entrance and about 5 miles from the park entrance. We arrived to this small local place just as they were opening at 7:30 am and they had breakfast sandwiches being made, mostly with bacon, egg and cheese but they'll make you sausage or other variation as well. They also have a good selection of other breakfast items like hard boiled eggs, cheese, fruits, yogurt parfait, salad and deli lunch sandwiches. Additionally they sell various hot and cold drinks, organic JT coffee beans that they'll grind for you, salty and sweet snacks, California dates and roadrunner t-shirts. Prices are not cheap but comparable to other similar places and Starbucks. We appreciated the friendly staff. The breakfast sandwich was delicious, though it did take a bit to make.

The landscape around it is a hypnotizing blend of desert, mountains, high plains...with towering cacti and rocky terrain that seem to go on forever. It's the perfect setting for those seeking thrills and a taste of the unconventional. As I wandered around the restaurant, inside and outside, I couldn't help but notice the eclectic mix of people who gather here. There were the hardcore adrenaline junkies, decked out in full gear and ready to conquer the next climbing expedition in Joshua Tree. Then you have the nature lovers, clad in earthy tones who seem at peace with themselves and the world (OMMmmmmmmmmmmm.....) and then you have the free spirits (ME ME ME ! hahahaaa) with the interesting hair and carefree attitudes. Overall, Yucca Valley Outpost is a fantastic Food and People Watching destination for anyone looking to break free from the constraints of modern society and experience the world on the "other side"... and before I forget... the food is delicious !

I think you come in here willing to let the store tell you what it is you need. Just go in there to browse and see what you end up leaving with.
