Frontier Café
55844 29 Palms Hwy, Joshua Tree, CA
Crema's Take
“Frontier Café draws a young, design-conscious crowd who camp out here for all-day breakfast and genuinely solid sandwiches that feel homemade rather than corporate—expect a wait during peak times, but the spacious interior and charming outdoor seating make lingering worthwhile. The menu leans healthy without being precious, prices are fair for Joshua Tree, and the vibe is casual enough for a laptop session or catching up with friends, though you'll want to dial back the honey if you order anything sweet.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu.

Busy but spacious spot with filling food (4/5 Green Stars) I arrived at what was probably close to peak time – around 10 AM on Sunday. The line was quite long and the food took a good while to arrive. I would have been wondering if it was forgotten except that I could see that…
Loved this quaint little cafe! Recently stopped in with a group of friends (new to the area), and we were all very impressed with the menu options. Prices in California in general are higher than our Midwest norms, and this cafe was no exception- but it was worth every penny. I…
Sausage, Egg, and Cheddar: 4/5 This was a great deal. It tasted like a sandwich you could make at home in the best possible way. I really like veggie sausage patties, so brace for it since it’s the main protein. The mayo they use was tasty and did not overpower the sandwich. I…
Youthful crowd, healthy food. Very cute atmosphere inside outside paint's peeling a little great Windows. Outdoor seating seems to be popular with the younger crowd.
Love the vibe and menu. Ordered the yogurt parfait and found it a tad too sweet. They were generous with the honey.

Cool coffee shop and cafe right next to an amazing vintage store, The End. I had an iced oat milk latte with lavender and a vegan BLT. Both were amazing! They also sell Joshua Tree Roasters beans. Highly recommend.
