The Cottage Too restaurant
66230 Pierson Blvd, Palm Springs, CA
Crema's Take
“This beloved Desert Hot Springs institution serves up generous, honest breakfast and light fare in a wood-paneled dining room that feels frozen in the best kind of time capsule, where locals rotate through like it's their own kitchen. The staff treats you like family the moment you walk in, and whether you're grabbing coffee and a pastry quick or settling in for huevos rancheros and conversation, the portions are big, the prices are fair, and everything tastes like someone actually cares about feeding you well. It's the kind of place people return to monthly without thinking twice, where the real specialty is making everyone who walks through the door feel genuinely welcomed.”

Little gem. Many locals are dining there. Portions are big and tasty. Friendly service
The staff at Cottage Too are friendly and efficient, and the place has a cozy, and welcoming, but old-school, wood paneled country decor. The sausage patty was excellent — big, flavorful, and cooked just right along with eggs over medium — and the house-made salsa added a nice, fresh touch. Unfortunately, the rest of breakfast missed the mark. The “extra crispy” bacon was extra burnt, both of the English muffin pieces were absolutely flat, and the gravy smothered the tiny biscuit so much it should be called “2 dumplings and gravy soup!”(Sorry. I’m a southerner and while the gravy is up to par, slicing the biscuit in half is not how you serve this dish.) The pancake was slightly overdone, and the fruit cup wasn’t very fresh. Nice people, but the food we tried was just not up to par. There are too many fantastic options nearby to give it another chance. Really surprised by the high ratings.
Great service, Honest hot meal at a fair price. Great old school diner feel.
In Desert Hot Springs this is our regular breakfast spot once a month. Restaurant staff are courteous & welcoming from the moment you walk in, people are kind and mindful of everyone's personal space. Food is good for what you pay for, prices are hard to beat. A breakfast for two people may cost you about 25 dlls and you still will have a to go box with leftovers to take home. The place is cozy, warm vibes, it's been there for many many years (20yrs approximately) needs a little love if you ask me. But yet again it's what gives it that nice cozy vibe(although after 30 mins the flat wood booths with worn out cushions start to hurt) lol Coffee is a light roast, creamers are usually half and half. My personal favorite the ham&eggs with potatoes * Scalloped potatoes ( a bit charted) *Eggs *Toast (well buttered) A side bottle with fresh salsa Very mild 🔥 My lady had the Canadian bacon , avocado & cheese omelette with House fries, Bleu cheese on the side. Both had coffee, they refill you constantly. And greeting you when you first arrive with water 💦 & silverware🍴 You pay at the cash register, where you will find a variety of candies ,mints, Mexican candy overall (brands famously found in Mexico) and a thing or two more ..🍭 🍬
Not your finest restaurant but a extremely homey and cute small town vibes restaurant that serves classic breakfast. We had huevos rancheros, chilaquiles, breakfast sando and a classic plate for group breakfast before stagecoach. Everything was good portions and filling. Service was good, our server kept our coffee and waters filled. Hits the spot for breakfast. - Insta @ SpicyAivy
