Good pizza. Friendly and fast service. Nothing better than grabbing a slice sitting outside and gazing at the mountains. I Borrego springs.

It's a small shop but they have a large variety of foods and drinks here. We tried their pizza (sausage, pepperoni, and onion) and it was very, very good. Lots of toppings, good buttery crust, good flavor all around. I would say, just a tad more sauce would have put it over the top. We also tried some of their cookies which looked and tasted very homemade. There are very few restaurants in Borrego so it's nice to find ones that stand out. I would definitely return.

We found ourselves in Borrego Springs once again a year later! We ordered the same Large Supreme Pizza. We were not disappointed. This was enough to feed the four of us. We had to wait maybe 20 minutes, but it was worth it! A large group with many small children came in after us, the restaurant put on a cartoon on Netflix for them. The people who work there are so nice. I hope to be back again in a year or so!

Tasty Pizza but prices have doubled for the toppings.

Good food and good service in Borrego Springs, easy to get to, close to Christmas Circle. They have a couple nice patios and indoor seating.

Everything went well, it is farm to table so it takes a little extra time & so worth it…read more My husband had banana bread french toast with fresh ripe blueberries & strawberries! I had savory crepe with stir fried spinach & onions topped with black olives, the real kind, enjoyed it all.

I had saved Purple Owl Cafe in my collections for my first trip to Julian, and I really enjoyed it…read more The atmosphere and food were both impressive. I loved their interior decor; although there has been certain comments on it not giving "purple owl" vibes, I think everything looks well put together with several purple colored and owl decorations that respond to the name. There could always be more, but that seems like a nice fit to me, lol. Anyway, I loved my Fun Guy tartine with potatoes, and my matcha tasted just how I like it. Vegan whipped cream was on the menu, but they did not have it, so that was a bummer, but I'll call it blessing in disguise to avoid more calories. My friend and I wanted to try the Beyond Papas, but they were all out of beyond meat. She ended up ordering the Luca tartine and said it was okay but has had better. She loved her Purple Owl drink though! They had a clean restroom outside, which was a plus! I even returned to use it again before I hit the road back home because the porta potty lines were seriously unfavorable, and I'd rather go here (clean restroom over a porta potty) anytime I'm back in Julian.
