IW Coffee - Indian Wells

Great spot for coffee (I had the tiger spice chai) and fresh pastries (I had a mixed berry scone). There was a bit of a line but it moved quickly and we were able to find seats outside on the patio.

Absolutely love this cozy little coffee shop! Sometimes it's pretty busy, but I believe it's worth the wait. The atmosphere is perfect for work or just catching up with friends. The staff is not only super fast, they are friendly and genuinely welcoming. You can tell they truly enjoy making a connection with everyone that comes through the door. The coffee is simply outstanding and treats are always so delicious, you have to get in there early for the best choices as they sell out quickly since they are so tasty! They have tons of gluten free and even a few vegan options. I can't recommend IW enough.

The drinks are good, but I come here again and again for their gluten free muffins. They have a SELECTION. If you get here early in the morning there's no less than about 6 different gluten free muffin flavors to choose from, and all of them are delicious. Moist, big, and flavorful in all the ways a muffin should be. These could easily fool the glutenous folks into thinking they're "normal." But they're not normal - they're delicious and gluten free and that is worth gold. Please note these aren't celiac friendly, as they are right next to the glutenous stuff. If you're just gluten sensitive, go for it!

We got there all the time when we attend the BNP Paribas Tennis Tournament. You can find may of the players there each morning. They serve Joshua Tree coffee, which we like a lot. There is a sparse selection of things to eat. Many of the baked goods are vegan. There is limited seating and this place is very popular with the locals - especially on weekends. Don't be surprised if there is a line.

Go there once a week on Friday and not sure why it took me this long to write them a review,,love their cold brewed ice coffee and wife gets their chai latte, we usually share a muffin but today got their chocolate scone and took the baristas advice and had it warmed up! Holy Moly Batman! What a transformation a little heat imparts on the scone, DO IT! They also make the pastry there in house sooo bonus points for that, love the cool atmosphere, you can still relax and enjoy a conversation like some other places USED TO BE, the deco is simple and elegant as well.
