    Veggie omelette made with egg whites. I asked for the hashbrowns to be extra crispy.
    Anita M.

    From the moment we walked in, we could tell that the place is extremely clean. The western decor is also lots of fun. But, most importantly, the breakfast we ordered was delicious! I had a veggie omelette, substituted egg whites, and my husband had the classic eggs, pancake, and bacon. The coffee was filled regularly and was good and strong. Our server, Jenny, was extremely kind and attentive. Such great, fast, and friendly service.

    Frutty frutty and western burger

    We got the western burger and the frutty frutty pancakes, food was 10/10. The burger was stacked, good portions. We also ordered the mocha iced coffee but it wasn't all that great, it tasted like chocolate water. Service was great the waitress was attentive and efficient. The decor is nice, takes you back to old yucca. Looking forward to coming for dinner!

    Chili Relleno Omelette
    Mark B.

    Chili Relleno omelette is one of the best I have ever had. The ranch ranchero is so delicious. A prefect amount of spicy with balanced flavors. A must if you're here. Service was great. Definitely coming back when we are in the area.

    Thought I'd give everyone an updated menu. The staff is super nice and helped me choose between two omelettes. This is more of a local chill place and it's was perfectly lively on the Sunday morning we went. We got: Wet breakfast burrito -- average breakfast burrito but the ranchero sauce made it above average. Breakfast burger -- came out piping hot, very good texture, tasted good. The great omelette -- really great, the feta was a nice touch and it came with potatoes and toast and generous with the vegetables. Machaca and eggs -- replaced potatoes/hashbrowns with fruit. "It was good. Fruit was really good. Well fried tortillas - highlight of the dish." Someone else mentioned the women's bathroom missing a seat on one of the toilets and it's still missing... thought I would mention this. Overall great restaurant, prices were reasonable and would come back if I were a local.

    Country fried steak, country potatoes

    Great breakfast spot! We've been here a few times and the service is consistently great. Usually on a Saturday or Sunday morning when they're a little busier. But the waitresses are always friendly, and attentive. Our favorite is the country fried steak! The only reason for 4 stars is the inconsistent portions. However, the food is always fresh and delicious. The inside is always clean. 90s country playing for a good vibe.

    Super rude waitress, was only nice to us when she gave us the check!!
    Cat A.

    This rude waitress who serviced us BURNT toast with no apology. 1 hour and a half wait for our food. Waitress in pic knew the toast was burnt and still put it in front of me. When I asked her if I can have toast that's not burnt she said yes and she didn't even bother to go back and tell the kitchen like hey guys this toast is hella burnt!! Besides this waitress the other employees were friendly and kind but come on would you really give that to a hungry customer?

    TNT burger, pancakes, meat lovers bowl
    Garrett K.

    Breakfast
    Brenda A.

    Worth a visit! Came here after a weekend nearby & we were so happy! Food was SO good and SOO affordable. We were so full and happy afterwards! Our server was very polite and let us take our time. The ambiance is definitely "old cowboy" style and cute. Looks like many locals come here to read the newspaper and have coffee!!! Felt like such a cute small time diner. We will definitely come again!!!! Has everything from breakfast, burgers, teas, milkshakes, salads, soups, and burritos!

    French toast with eggs and bacon added on
    Josh D.

    Visited Joshua Tree for the weekend, saw this place on Google Maps. Was not disappointed with it at all! Amazing food. I got the orange juice which is freshly squeezed, YUM!! Their menu has lots of options to choose from, I ended up getting the French toast with eggs and bacon. It smelled so good and tasted great! Right off the bat, service was amazing. The waiters were quick to attend and very friendly. For it being called the Western Diner, the inside was filled with western decorations and drawings, even had old western cowboy movies playing. Definitely a must visit when in the area, will come back for sure!!

    Turkey eggs Benedict

    I went on Thanksgiving last year and had turkey Eggs Benedict . They had four different choices all with turkey. I like the wine there too. Service was great too!

    Frontier Cafe is one of those rare high desert spots that sits right in the middle of one of the…read morebest little shopping stretches in Yucca Valley and still feels easy and local. 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.

We missed our reservation time but decided to try a walk in because it was the whole reason we came into town in the first place. We were greeted by two really nice hosts who assured us there was room for us sooner than later and we were seated with our dog on the patio pretty quickly. They were so nice to us and doubly nice to our dog! We ordered fried eggplant, gazpacho, ceviche, a lamb burger, and got a lamb burger patty for the dog (we're not order food for the dog people but she was going through it too with the Walmart stuff so why not). We added a couple glasses of wine and their beer shandy and finished with a strawberry shortcake. Every bite was perfect but we rated them- Gazpacho, Lamb Burger, Eggplant, Ceviche. The gazpacho was a hit with the perfect amount of fresh/sweet cantaloupe and spicy-ness. This place was well worth the trip from Big Bear. My wife noted that everyone there that helped us legit looked happy to be there. There was also a medical emergency and the staff was so kind and helpful throughout and checked in on all the tables in the area afterwards. It kind of showed that they are invested in the people that visit.

The turkey, while good, wasn't freshly carved, which took a little away from the "special" feel. And while the breakfast sando was light and all alone on the plate, the way the mayo fused the flavors together was delicious. But I do wish the beverage fridge had prices listed so I wasn't surprised at the register. The restaurant, while it's a bit tricky to find on the side of a building, inside is a modern space. It's spotless and very clean. The aesthetic is minimalist and if it were just you, it could feel a bit cold, if not for the steady buzz of activity behind the counter. There were three staff members who moved swiftly. As I watched I was impressed with their efficiency as the kept things running smoothly. When we entered an hour before closing, we made the mistake to sit and pause to look over the menu. It was a mistake because it seemed like the front door kept swinging open as wave after wave of hungry visitors poured in. My guess is these folks were all returning from Joshua Tree National Park. In fact, it felt like nearly everyone there had just come from the park. The business concept appears thoughtfully geared toward travelers, particularly those with a bit of disposable income and a discerning palate. Overall, this is a certified foodie stop: quality over quantity: taste over filling up.
