I…read morecalled them on the phone to see if they had defrosted shrimp for me to cook that night and she was amazing on the phone. Very friendly, gave me prices and sizes, and told me she would take care of me when I got there. I got there about an hour later, didn't tell her it was me on the phone, and STILL got great customer service. Welcomed me to the store, was quick to offer options, I even needed more shrimp than what they had and she went out of her way to go get more and thaw it for me. I went to grab a few extra things and by the time I came back she already had the extra shrimp bagged and tagged, ready to go. She was cleaning, helping, and being friendly, all by herself! Keep up the good work girl! I can tell she loves her job and I love her energy!

Where have all the flowers gone? You have to wonder how a grocery store sinks so low. Once upon a…read moretime, Vons had the most beautiful roses. They smelled sweet and the petals were the richest reds and pinks and yellows. Something happened. The fragrance started to decline and eventually they had no fragrance at all. The edges of the roses became dark and lifeless and the buds began to droop. Like so many in this community, we are angry to see you aren't tending the roses. You aren'tt teaching the younger workers how to take care of all the flowers that can bring such joy to the elderly in the community like me. You just throw them away and wait for the next batch to take their place. All the beauty is leaving this place and many are scared it won't come back again.

We got wraps last time we stopped in, today we ordered a couple BLT's +avocado #delish. We also got the Sabrina Smoothie which is the main reason I'm doing this review. Sooooooo good! The inside is clean with several tables to sit, including a large table for a bigger party. We sat on the small patio and enjoyed the nice May weather with a breeze. We're here for the weekend, so I'll probs be back for another smoothie treat!

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.

Located next to the JT visitor center west entrance and about 5 miles from the park entrance. We arrived to this small local place just as they were opening at 7:30 am and they had breakfast sandwiches being made, mostly with bacon, egg and cheese but they'll make you sausage or other variation as well. They also have a good selection of other breakfast items like hard boiled eggs, cheese, fruits, yogurt parfait, salad and deli lunch sandwiches. Additionally they sell various hot and cold drinks, organic JT coffee beans that they'll grind for you, salty and sweet snacks, California dates and roadrunner t-shirts. Prices are not cheap but comparable to other similar places and Starbucks. We appreciated the friendly staff. The breakfast sandwich was delicious, though it did take a bit to make.

The cookies were good however wish they had more flavors other than the two.

Every time I hop in, there's something new in the fridges, and the drink selection is fantastic. The space itself is super clean and modern, and they carry a better selection of backpacking meals than I've ever seen at any camping store. The owner, Macy, is incredibly friendly and provides excellent customer service, which makes the whole experience even better. They also host a vegan pop-up outside every other Sunday that's absolutely delicious. If you haven't checked out The Ginger Rabbit Market yet, you definitely should. It'll quickly become a regular stop in your errand routine.

They even carry some products I previously bought at the bigger natural food chains, but that were discontinued, forcing me to order online, so I was stoked to see that! If you don't know exactly what products you want, the staff will happily help with recommendations, but they will also never intrude when you're on a mission or just want to browse. They can also special order items at times, so be sure to ask if you don't find exactly what you want. They have a really solid variety of organic, all-natural, specialty diet, bulk bin dry goods, local products and international foods, and range from ingredients for making your food from scratch, as well as canned items, refrigerated products and boxed meals and mixes. They also sell 5 varieties of Joshua Tree Roasters coffee beans, which saves me an extra stop when I'm running errands! Sue's is a fantastic local gem and the Morongo Basin is lucky to have such a great shop!

Ethical products and organic bulk foods - most at reasonable prices (5/5 Green Stars)…read moreI arrived in Joshua Tree without sun block (D'oh!) so I took a trip to Joshua Tree Health Foods the day before visiting the park. Glad I did - the sun is strong even in December! Staff members were friendly and helpful - one person directed me to the sun block. I bought a tube from the Seaweed Bath Co., thinking that it seemed a bit pricey at around $20 but then checked online and saw that it's $19 direct from the manufacturer. I looked around the store and saw some interesting products that I'd never seen before, like mycelium-based bacon (MyBacon). Some items seem overpriced (olive oil) but others (Sappo Hill or Dr. Bronner's soap) are very reasonable. I'm giving Joshua Tree Health Foods 5/5 Green Stars for social and environmental impact, based on the following: * Large selection of bulk ingredients, from nuts and flour to herbs and spices. * Almost all of the items stocked in bulk were organic. * When I looked at specific products, like bar soap, the brands in stock were among the most ethical. * A large amount of vegan items on sale such as Nuts for Cheese and Violife dairy. * Inclusive business where all are welcome.

I found a raw vegan dressing for my husband who is eating a super specific healing diet and broccoli sprouts too!

They fit a lot of quality items in their shop! I recommend it!

TKB Bakery & Deli was an amazing experience from start to finish!…read more The owner, Brandon, greeted us with the warmest welcome and made us feel right at home. We ordered the smash burger and the Brooklyn smoked pastrami sandwich, and wow the pastrami sandwich wasn't just one of the best I've ever had, it was THE best I've ever had! The smash burger was also incredible. You can tell they use top-quality ingredients, starting with the meat, which was lean, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. To top off an already great visit, Brandon offered to cover our drinks and dessert and even took a picture with us. The food, service, and hospitality were all outstanding. Wonderful experience we will definitely be regulars!

The sandwiches were tasty with LOTS of meat. TKB does NOT skimp. Today we arrived and were seated…read moreoutside because we had our dogs. It was well after the lunch rush but it was pleasantly busy. Employees were friendly and checking on patrons, serving food and tending to empty tables. We had been waiting awhile, so I carried our number in with me and made note of the numbers they were delivering... which were higher numbers than ours, but also very random. I went to the cash register and asked the employee if they called the numbers in order. She answered politely that no they didn't. I then mentioned we were sitting outside and asked if I should wait inside for my order so they wouldn't have trouble finding us. We were not in a hurry and were trying to make it easy on the hardworking employees....and bonus that it was cool inside *At that point, a man who I perceived was a manager or maybe even the owner , turned to me from behind the counter, handed me a bag and said " Here Ma'am , GO!" Then turned back around to what he was doing. What? GO? I don't know what his intent was because I'm not a mind reader, but it felt rude and dismissive. His facial expression was as though he was busy and or annoyed. I was so surprised at his response in such an otherwise pleasant environment. I'm pretty tolerant of grumpy people (you know, sometimes there's a reason) but this just felt really icky -it was our intended destination after a hot drive from Phoenix and it did not sit well with us. We won't be returning. Food =10 Customer service = so disappointing 3
