Beautiful tour with the charming one and only real deal Sam Cobb, visionary farmer. Enjoyed…read morelearning about the dates, the trees, and how it all began! Tasting dates at the end was very good, such diverse textures and flavors, but just being there was a great experience as the trees are lovely with real presence. Shaded nicely on a hot day. They recommend close-toed shoes to be safe but if you're sure-footed sandals seem fine to me. Getting photos was also great fun! His wife is sweet also, happy to meet them both.

We were greeted by the lovely Maxine (Mrs Cobb) who was kind and welcoming. She showed us and let us sample a few of the different types of dates available, and even showed us how they grow and are picked from the palm trees. (They do offer tours that you can sign up for which we might have to go back for). Their property looks like a beautiful palm-filled oasis and is very worth visiting. We purchased 2 different types of dates that were both delicious and unique in their taste and texture. We will definitely go back and visit again soon. Thank you to the Cobb Family for a cool and educational experience.

A great shop for wine, cheese, beer, spirits, and deli lovers! This is an amazing spot to pick up…read moresnacks, sandwiches, or drinks. They carry so many fun, hyper‑local small‑business products, which I love -- way more exciting than grabbing the same old chips you see at any gas station. The staff is friendly and inviting, and the selection is huge. It's also a great place to grab a unique, intentional gift or travel souvenir if you want to bring someone something local from Palm Springs. The sandwiches looked incredible -- I didn't try one this time, but I absolutely would. A fantastic store right in the heart of downtown Palm Springs.

Wow! Only had a half a day in Palm Springs and needed to find a quick sandwich to take on the road…read more We tried the Wisconsin & the special NY Pastrami Melt. As I was leaving, the guys working told me to leave a review on the special and that they loved constructive criticism... so here is mine... if you don't add this to the permanent menu, you'd be insane. It was phenomenal- we loved both sandwiches but the pastrami was insane. Also, loved the faro salad and potato salad. Will make a stop back next time we are here without a doubt!

Bread and Flours is what I've been hunting for since I arrived in Palm Springs: real sourdough,…read morefour ingredients, and I asked before I bought. Most bread sold in this country is an engineering problem solved with a chemistry set. Twenty-odd ingredients, half of them unpronounceable, all in service of a loaf that can sit on a shelf for two weeks and still pass for food. I've been reading those labels since I got here, and putting most of them back. So I asked Kristin -- who owns the place with her husband Mark -- what goes into the sourdough. Four ingredients. That was the entire answer. You can watch the argument for it before you taste it. Mark works behind glass at the back of the shop, which means the bread isn't a product that arrives, it's a process you can stand and watch. Most of what's on the shelves is made there. The loaf earns a sales pitch it never bothers to make. The crust is hydrated and resists -- it doesn't shatter, doesn't crack apart, and never makes you work your jaw to get through a bite. Behind it, the crumb is tight and custardy, tears cleanly, and holds under work without saturating. The sour sits somewhere between lactic and acetic, neither overbearing nor understated. The bake is blond, the texture substantial -- chewy without ever becoming exhausting. If you come to sourdough chasing a crust that shatters and blisters, this one will disappoint you. It isn't built for that, and holding it against the loaf would be a mistake. A crust that splinters is a crust that quits the moment you ask it to carry something. That's the whole test, and most sourdough fails it in one direction or the other. Bread that's lovely with butter and jam collapses as soon as you build on it. Bread engineered for a sandwich is dull on its own. This does both without compromising for either -- plain with butter, or loaded up as a gourmet sandwich with everything inside, and it holds. Eleven dollars a loaf. Below what this level of craftsmanship could command. The Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookie is soft, with a properly caramelized exterior and just a hint of sourdough running underneath the sugar. The chocolate manages smooth and sharp at the same time. The Seasonal Strawberry Oat Crumble Bar is built rather than assembled. The oats are chewy and read as sweet oatmeal, not the dry feed most bars settle for; the strawberry is fresh, tart, and clearly deliberate, nothing like the thick gelatinous jam usually spooned into these things. The crumble is buttery and hydrated just enough that it doesn't lodge in every crevice of your mouth. It sits on a crust closer to a well-baked pie than a bar base, and nothing in it overpowers anything else. Both did the thing that separates real baking from the industrial version. You finish and you're happy, ready to get on with your day. Not heavy, not tired. Food is meant to energize you, not slow you down. Most of what gets sold as bread does the opposite.

Overall - The most amazing dates and date ranch tour one could hope for!…read more Taste - The dates they grow are of the highest quality. Although they sell different quality dates, even the lowest quality dates they donate tasted better than any dates I've gotten in the store. Their premium dates were amazing with such rich flavor and sweetness! We bought a box and will definitely be ordering more for ourselves and as gifts. Service - Saralyn Delk, the owner and operator of this amazing date ranch, gave us an amazing tour loaded with information. She greeted us at the gate and took us around the property on a gator. We learned about the different kinds of dates they grow (Barhi & Medjool), tasted the different dates in the various stages of harvesting, and saw some of the animals. We weren't rushed and she was really happy to give details about everything we wanted to know. She was funny and raw and you could tell that she really takes pride in keeping her ranch clean and growing the best dates ever! Facility - The ranch itself is kept very clean and free of brush. Additionally, their packaging facility is kept immaculate. Need to know - There are peacocks on the property! Would I come back - Yes Would I go out of my way - Yes Additional info - You can't see the property until you get to the end of the street. You will pass a bunch of other farms along the way, don't feel like you are missing out because this is a little further, it's TOTALLY worth it!
