Crema's Take

This sprawling Palm Springs café wins hearts with its massive lounge area, mountain views, and genuinely welcoming vibe that makes you want to linger for hours with your laptop or your pup. The specialty drinks and locally-loved pastries pair beautifully with their attentive staff and cozy touches like a working fireplace, creating the kind of place where you feel equally at home for a quick caffeine hit or a long afternoon of catching up with friends. It's the rare coffee shop that nails both the coffee craft and the hospitality—making it feel less like a transaction and more like settling into someone's living room.

There are so many options out here but got this recommendation from a local. Dog friendly and lounge area is huge with a view of the mountains. I wasn't sure what to expect from a coffee shop and was thrilled with their food options. I ordered the breakfast burrito and I kid you not, the best I have had in years! Wait staff was ultra friendly, speedy when it came to getting my food, patrons were friendly and sociable.

I really wanted to like this place, especially with only one breakfast in The Palm Springs area. People rated about the biscuits, muffins and pastries. But I was disappointed. The biscuits were clearly made the day before, put in the fridge overnight and bland (i had the cinnamon ones). The blueberry muffin was marginal. Which is okay if I'm not paying over $6 for it. Okay, the coffee was great and the service, while a bit slow and chaotic, was good. And the place and location were great. I may try it again, but only if the biscuits are hot out of the oven.

We arrived at Airport in a torrential downpour. Quickly made our way on foot to Social Club, and arrived soaking wet. Wow, did we come to the right place. Fire in fireplace, great food, delightful service, and the proprietor even gifted us a glass of wine. Games are fun too. Friendly patrons. Looks like they have an amazing outdoors too!!!

I absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is always welcoming and has such a great vibe. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is an excellent value for the money. Their specialty drinks are a must-try—I can never resist them. Highly recommend!

This was a great cafe to hang out at while we waited for our flight with a less than 10 minute walk to the airport. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Food was reasonably priced, delicious, and a large portion size. I appreciate the homage to Harvest Moon with the vegetarian sandwich. :) Really great menu with a lot to choose from. Outdoor seating was especially lovely. Thank you for the wonderful morning at your establishment.
