At La Provence Patisserie & Cafe, in Palm Desert my visit felt as though I was stepping into a…read morelittle Parisian daydream tucked beneath the desert sun. The whimsical atmosphere dances with charm, delicate pastries gleaming behind glass, the soft hum of conversation, and an elegance that somehow feels both refined and warmly inviting. The table service is nothing short of exceptional, with staff who make each guest feel like an honored friend lingering over brunch in a French countryside café. Every dish arrives beautifully crafted and bursting with flavor, from buttery pastries to savory delights that comfort the soul and delight the senses. And one delicious secret worth savoring; do not leave without trying the homemade raspberry confiture. Its rich, bright sweetness paired with fresh bread or pastries is pure magic the kind of taste that lingers long after the last bite and calls you back again soon.

I love this place. They set themselves a world apart…read more With outdoor temperatures already exceeding the century mark, the menu and patisserie selections enhance the exceptional escapist atmosphere of their la salles. They are almost always busy, but the multiple ways they make each guest feel invited and welcome are impressive. The maître d' is simply exceptional. She doesn't just seat and then retreat behind a stand - she is on top of every aspect of service. The complimentary infused water is always welcome. The counter staff is responsive almost to the point of being psychic. This next sentence may cause the owners pause, but I recommend over-doing it on the pastries - way overdo it! Buy you and your guests more than you can possibly finish. Get some for your neighbors and friends. (And if you are still craving those eggs - they have some surprisingly low priced options hidden in the menu. Great stop! Roger Medanich

We couldn't resist trying a couple of desserts, and both were fantastic. The lemon meringue tart struck the perfect balance of sweet and tart, while the espresso mousse was rich, creamy, and packed with coffee flavor.

I should mention that it is also a wine bar Pictures not posting will update when they upload

They have a pretty creative menu with a lot of unique syrups and drink concoctions so it made it hard for me to choose. I asked the worker for her recommendations and she kindly explained the menu to me. I was sold when I heard about the cafe de olla being made in-house and fresh at that -- she pointed to the vat right behind her. So, I got the iced cafe de olla latte and it was the perfect sweetness with hints of spice that added flavor to the coffee. I would order this again and wanted to come back here the same day. There was no line when I went but they was a line forming when I was leaving. There's no seating area so it's more of a grab-and-go place.

It was one of those mornings where you need caffeine before the world officially wakes up. I rolled…read moreinto the mall around 10:40 a.m., knowing the shops inside didn't open until 11. The funny thing? While the retail was still shuttered, the cafés and entertainment spots were already buzzing. That contrast -- empty storefronts on one side, the smell of fresh coffee on the other -- gave the whole place a quiet but inviting vibe. I walked into Xanti's and ordered two drinks: a strong macchiato (because sometimes you just need that punch) and a hot lavender matcha for balance. Total was $11.25, which felt more than fair. I tried paying with a $100 bill, but the barista politely explained they couldn't take it. No stress, no attitude -- just professional and smooth. Service really stood out here. The barista, a friendly guy with calm energy, not only took the order but noticed I'd settled into my phone at the table. A couple of minutes later, he personally brought both drinks over. That simple gesture made the experience feel way more personal than you'd expect from a mall coffee stop. As for the drinks? The macchiato was bold, clean, and exactly the kind of kick I needed. The lavender matcha surprised me -- creamy, floral, not too sweet, just enough to feel like a treat. Together, they struck a perfect balance: one to wake me up, one to slow me down. So yeah, it's technically "just" a coffee spot in a mall, but don't let that fool you. Between the timing, the vibe, and the barista's extra touch, it was one of those experiences that sticks.

And the desserts are wildly overpriced. Our lite lunch plus a dessert cost $160! They don't give you a printout, just a receipt with the total. When we figured out we'd been overcharged we tried to call them repeatedly--we live 40 minutes away--but no one ever answers the phone and their voicemail doesn't accept messages. The sandwiches were good--but not worth that price. And $24.95 for a cup of soup?! Too bad. I really wanted to like this place.

It was very hot and the wait was an hour. They had an electrolyte cart available for people in line. The space is large and open, but the wooden tables and seating weren't comfortable. The tables were also so big I had to yell to have a conversation with my friends. As for the drinks, they were creative and unique. The matcha leaned more on the bitter side, and in the strawberry matcha, I could barely taste the matcha itself. It was still yummy and refreshing. It's an interesting spot to try, but I think OC has better places for matcha.

The café is spotless, beautifully designed, and has such a relaxing atmosphere that you instantly want to stay a while instead of grabbing your drink and leaving. The baristas were incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming. They greeted everyone with a smile and made us feel like regulars, even though it was our first visit. You don't see that kind of hospitality very often anymore. The coffee was excellent, and the pastries were just as impressive. We tried the Honey Cake and the Bird's Milk cake, and both were fresh, rich, and absolutely delicious. You can tell they don't cut corners when it comes to quality. As an Armenian, I left with an even bigger smile knowing this place is Armenian-owned. It honestly made me proud to see a local business representing our culture with so much class, warmth, and professionalism. It's a beautiful reflection of Armenian hospitality. Cheers Coffee isn't just another coffee shop. It's the kind of place you look forward to coming back to. If I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would. Wishing the owners and the entire team nothing but continued success. You guys have built something truly special.

The women was shocked when she was told, after driving specifically to Wonder so she could try their food, that they had "closed down the grill early" so they could get their son to the orthodontist. The potential customer was very upset with the owners and when she saw us sitting at our table, she walked towards us and said, "I've never been kicked out of ANY establishment before and I'm in shock!" We honestly didn't really know what was going on, and just told her we were sorry for what was happening to her. She walked out the door and as she did, the Woman Owner came to us and said, "We have to get our son to the orthodontist. And then she said, "Life gets in the way, right?" We were shocked! I wanted to comment but why bother. You can't match wits with an unarmed person. The food wasn't even good. The cold brew I ordered was clearly NOT a cold brew. It was a cold coffee that was made earlier and they topped it off with oat milk. In the end, they did that other customer a favor, and showed us where their priority lies. We will NEVER go back.
