    Cold brew with cream top
    Sara P.

    The space is gorgeous, the merch is cute, the music was actually hitting, and the baristas are so cool and hella Gen Z. Walked in and immediately felt like I needed to up my whole vibe. Cold brew with cream had ZERO acidity. Zero! Smoothest cold brew I've ever had and it carried me through LA traffic on the way home like a champ. The banana bread was also sending me. They're in the desert and I'm in LA and I am already plotting a whole trip back. That's how good it was. Someone get them an LA outpost please and thank you.

    Desert kid coffee is really elevating the cafe culture in coachella valley! From the creatively-curated interior design, the state-of-the-art equipment, and the friendly atmosphere the staff maintains, there are so many reasons to make DKC the go-to for coffee or matcha. The Hailey's matcha was fantastic (and lovingly named after their manager, who has great taste). I also was super intrigued by them roasting beans on site. They have windows to watch into the "lab" and it's awesome seeing them care so much

    Vanilla chai latte

    Very cool atmosphere as this is a great aesthetic spot to chill at! Every employee was so nice and welcoming. The line was pretty long considering we went on festival weekend, but we were still treated with very quick service. I got a vanilla chai latte, which was very good!! I wish they had other milk options to add inside the coffee such as half & half. Not pictured is a matcha we got that was very very delicious!

    The pastries here are so delicious and yummy! We ordered the Sandy's Raspberry Rose pop-tart & the spinach and artichoke croissant. Both were very flavorful and savory. We also ordered a custom iced matcha latte & iced matcha sprummer that has a lemon grass and coconut kick. The service here was super friendly and kind! We were greeted while we waited in line. They don't even charge for oatmilk or alternatives milks which is a plus! The ambiance is beautiful and spacious as well with good music! Plenty of seating inside and outside. Love the garage door open concept reminds me of similar matcha spots in SD. I would definitely return here! Thank you :)

    We tried to beat the crowd and made it right around 7:45AM. The line was short, the service was great and the place is beautiful! The coffee shop has a great open space and it's just so welcoming! My only note, and it's not even a big deal, is that the music was a little too loud as we were trying to have a conversation. But, the coffee was yummy and the pastries are delicious! 10/10!!!!!

    Delicious coffee and great space .. not to mention great looking drinks .. came quickly and with great service as well

    Desert Rose Latte and Latte with Foam Top and house made honey lavender syrup
    Daniela J.

    We went on Saturday and anticipated a line due to the grand opening and festival crowds. The line moved quickly and efficiently, service was great, and loved the vibes. We were excited to hear the syrups are house made as well as the pastries. We tried the Iced Desert Rose Latte (Delicious) and a Ham and Gruyere croissant. My husband had a iced latte with a creme top and honey lavender syrup. The owners and workers were friendly and patient. We loved the fact you could taste all the coffee notes and it was not overly sweet. It was so good we had to go back the next day. This'll be one of our go to places and good coffee shops in the valley are long overdue. Cant wait to try the mobile order pickup next!

    Latte, coffee & bag
    Teresa D.

    Love the coffee, the community and the details. Had both a iced sugar-free vanilla latte ( my standard) and an iced mocha latte with a cream top. You can tell they make their own syrups, which are so much better than any mass produced you get most places. The cream top is a decadent treat and of course the coffee is top notch. I picked up two different coffees to take home to enjoy later. The service is friendly and they are very open to feedback. The vibes, music and welcome to linger make it more than just a place to grab a coffee.

    My new favorite place in the desert, hands down! Not only is the space beautifully and thoughtfully designed, but the drinks and pastries are out of this world. Everything I've tried so far was excellent. Love that the coffee is roasted in house and you can even see part of the process through the glass. Friendly for all generations, a real community GEM. If I could give a million stars, I would. Thank you, Desert Kid! We will be back soon, probably tomorrow :)

    Amazing coffees, not your typical charbucks knockoff. Great atmosphere, roasting onsite. Highly reccomend the pour over.

    Large iced vanilla matcha and large iced vanilla latte with cream top
    Cory C.

    Love their coffee!!! I had their iced latte with vanilla syrup and the cream top and a vanilla matcha. It was packed but service was super efficient and I didn't have to wait long after I ordered. One of the owners (I think) seemed so sweet as she was going around all the customers and thanking them for coming. I will definitely be back and I can't wait for my husband to try it!

    Amazing coffee! Make sure to get the Sandy Pop Tart:) Lots of natural light and big windows to relax with your drink.

First off that BQL (banana Que Latte) was spot on *AMAZING*. The langka (jackfruit) and banana were all in there. Like you totally can taste it. It was balanced so well. Tho, I think it should be turon Latte (spring roll wrapped banana with jackfruit inside) not Banana que. But totally love this drink!! this alone make me want to go back again. its a small boutique but clean, and nice wall photos too.the moment we walked in the coffee aroma welcomed us. I love it!! Other than the BQL we ordered BSL (brown sugar) they do have milk alternative such as pistachio, oat, almond, etc. We didn't get to see other options for pastries since most were all gone by the time we got there. Overall, I would def recommend this place for anyone visiting PSP, Cath City, Palm Dessert, Indio or Coachella. Five starts would totally recommend and will becoming back in the near future. Thank you for bringing such good drinks to the Valley!

They have a pretty creative menu with a lot of unique syrups and drink concoctions so it made it hard for me to choose. I asked the worker for her recommendations and she kindly explained the menu to me. I was sold when I heard about the cafe de olla being made in-house and fresh at that -- she pointed to the vat right behind her. So, I got the iced cafe de olla latte and it was the perfect sweetness with hints of spice that added flavor to the coffee. I would order this again and wanted to come back here the same day. There was no line when I went but they was a line forming when I was leaving. There's no seating area so it's more of a grab-and-go place.

    It was one of those mornings where you need caffeine before the world officially wakes up. I rolled…read moreinto the mall around 10:40 a.m., knowing the shops inside didn't open until 11. The funny thing? While the retail was still shuttered, the cafés and entertainment spots were already buzzing. That contrast -- empty storefronts on one side, the smell of fresh coffee on the other -- gave the whole place a quiet but inviting vibe. I walked into Xanti's and ordered two drinks: a strong macchiato (because sometimes you just need that punch) and a hot lavender matcha for balance. Total was $11.25, which felt more than fair. I tried paying with a $100 bill, but the barista politely explained they couldn't take it. No stress, no attitude -- just professional and smooth. Service really stood out here. The barista, a friendly guy with calm energy, not only took the order but noticed I'd settled into my phone at the table. A couple of minutes later, he personally brought both drinks over. That simple gesture made the experience feel way more personal than you'd expect from a mall coffee stop. As for the drinks? The macchiato was bold, clean, and exactly the kind of kick I needed. The lavender matcha surprised me -- creamy, floral, not too sweet, just enough to feel like a treat. Together, they struck a perfect balance: one to wake me up, one to slow me down. So yeah, it's technically "just" a coffee spot in a mall, but don't let that fool you. Between the timing, the vibe, and the barista's extra touch, it was one of those experiences that sticks.

We arrived at 8 AM on Thursday and sat near the front of the restaurant. There were three other tables occupied at the time. I really enjoyed the Bees' Knees latte. My husband enjoyed his latte and my son had iced coffee. Beverages are served in unique and very pretty porcelain teacups. We ordered the Bananas Foster waffle with sausage patties, the half order of prosciutto avocado toast with eggs on the side, and my son had the chilaquiles. This is the kind of place where you can savor an old time atmosphere with many things to see as you enjoy conversation. This is not a fast food restaurant. The staff are warm and friendly. The half order of prosciutto avocado toast was really delicious. The bread was lovely and dense and could have been toasted a little bit lighter for ease in cutting through the vegetables. (This was easily the perfect size for a meal, and the whole order is equally beautiful and generous.) My husband is still swooning over his lovely waffle and sausage patties. He gave his dish a solid 4 stars and talked about it all the way home. My son had chosen the red chilaquiles which had just the right spice level. The place filled up steadily until we left about an hour and a half later. We have a patio outside, which is receiving a new sunshade and lights. Mona the owner explained to us that on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. They will be serving dinner. She was warmly greeted by people who are obviously regulars to the café.
