OK, I just had the pastry that's like a swirl with almond and raisins. There's no way in the world you could make that better. Crisp on the outside moist and fresh on the inside amazing. read more

Ordered the bouche de Noel for Christmas Eve. What a disappointment! It was dry and the cream filling was tasteless. I noticed my guest took a few bites and no one finished. I threw the rest out. It was 60.00. Never have I felt being ripped off. Never again. read more

You'd never expect to find a reasonably authentic French cafe in a strip mall in Palm Desert but alas, it exists. We had breakfast the other day. Service was attentive and efficient. We had eggs Benedict, spinach quiche and corned beef hash. All tasty and served hot. I'd like to try the baguette and croissant...next time. Would definitely return. read more

Someone on Next Door mentioned French Corner Cafe so since we like French food we tried it and loved it. We loved the food and the ambiance is quite nice. French food is never inexpensive but the prices here a fair enough. The staff is very attentive but they do get busy but we were patient because the meals are very delicious. We've been back 3 times and plan to come many more times. We found out from someone in the next booth that they are open year round which we were glad to hear. read more

Loved everything about this establishment specifically the food, service and ambiance. Their patio is dog friendly which is great!! read more

Cute French restaurant food was great. Service was excellent. A little French accent didn't hurt. along with some great French pastries.

Went today for lunch .., was amazed a chicken sandwich with fries was $24... will not return ...btw iced tea $4.50 ...sandwich was good and so was the tea but there should be an investigation at those prices...would love to hear from management justifying those prices read more

This place is very nice. It's in the middle of a shopping center, but the ambience inside is very nice. Maybe it is the fact that most of the service staff is French, but you really feel like you're in a French coffee shop in Paris. When it comes to the food, I would say that it is okay. I had a seafood crepe with shrimp and scallops and it was goo. It had a very heavy cream which was tasty, but it was both inside the crêpe and on top. I think that was a little too much for me. My husband had a French dip sandwich and he said it was good. All together, the food was good. but I think it could be improved. However that can be easily overlooked by the ambience of the place. They have a table in the middle of the restaurant with French tablecloths and napkins for customers to purchase, which I thought that was really nice. The place is only open for breakfast and lunch so the menu is relatively limited. They also have a very nice bakery and you can buy nice desserts or bread. We purchased a chocolate caramel cake call the Louvre and it was really good. Altogether I would recommend this place if you're looking for some easy French food. This is not a dinner place, so do not expect escargot, Cuq au vin, or any ither traditionalFrench dinner dishes. Again, this is a breakfast and lunch place so the menu is mostly composed of salads, sandwiches, and crêpes. I must say that I was a little disappointed on the French style hot cocoa I ordered. Haven had hot cocoa in Paris, it was very thick and rich, and the one I got here was not very different from any hot cocoa you can find anywhere else in the States. Other than that everything was very tasty, very good. Service was excellent and I would definitely return to this place. I recommend you eat here if you have a chance. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Au revoir. read more

I left Palm Springs in 2010. It was always a pleasure to go back often to visit & a trip to this restaurant was always on the itinery. Alas, no more! We had our dogs with us so sat down on the outside patio. & sat we did, for 15 minutes! Other tables were served but not us. So what was the issue, well it could have been one or two reasons. 1. I was carrying a fluffy Union Jack bag & my Husband was wearing a Union Jack tee. 2. My Husband is black. Whichever of the 2 it was (& it definitely was) I walked inside & spoke to the Manager at the counter who acted like I was possibly deluded when I demanded to know why we had been ignored. A terse conversation in French changed nothing. (He was shocked when I answered him in own language). So if you have a skin color or carry something saying you`re English, don`t go here. My Dad said years ago that the French have always hated us because Hitler never reached our shores. Kinda think he might have been right! The next day we were across the street at the French Rotisserie Restaurant. OMG what a difference! read more

Good God. The food, the cappuccino, the pastries... EVERYTHING was amazing. BEYOND amazing. When my bf and I walked in here and heard the staff speak French, I KNEW this place was legit Food takes some time, but it's WORTH the wait. Everything was WOW. We will definitely pass through this town just to visit this restaurant again. read more

Loved the croissants. Both the original and the almond croissant were delicious. I wanted to like the quiche a lot more, but it was just okay. Service was just okay. Long wait to take our order. They actually forgot about bringing the croissants at all until we asked halfway through our meal. Next time I'd come here and order the croissants to go. read more

Lovely café with delicious food and a cute little shop too. They do an excellent Nicóise salad (def upgrade to the ahi tuna for not much extra $) and their croissants are fabulous and big. So many of the decadent-looking desserts tempt me every time but I can never say no to the croissant. Someday! read more

We used to love this Cafe and came often. They raised the price a lot and unfortunately the quality is not as good as before. In addition, we noticed the portions are much smaller than previously. Almost $10 for a pastry or for a piece of cake? Give me a break! The prices are quite outrageous. The food is only ok. My quiche was not even fresh. The rest is nothing special. Hugely disappointed!! read more

Still wonderful ! Breakfast Monte Cristo is wonderful , Croque croissant also wonderful ! But the lemon meringue tart ! Fantastic ! read more

We have been to breakfast here several times a few years back and I was never disappointed, But today they were not on their "A"game. In the past The quality of the food, presentation and the staff are all exceptional. Today not so much, staff was very friendly but the food wasn't that great. Their were three of us, we had to ask for a setup and more napkins, the table was set for 2. We each had a breakfast croissant, their with bacon mine with ham. read more

French Corner Cafe - Breakfast - Bakeries Near Me - Palm Desert, California

We drove down to Rancho Mirage to spend some time with my younger brother-in-law for a few days during our stay in Los Angeles. My brother-in-law and his spouse suggested eating a casual brunch or lunch at the French Corner Café in the Desert Crossing Shopping Center. They raved about the croissants, pastries, and breakfast and lunch menu items since they've enjoyed mid-morning meals here many times before. Since this café is located in a shopping center, there are lots of parking spaces around, but on this particular morning, all of the nearby parking spaces were taken, and there was a small crowd at the door, so my brother-in-law dropped us off to put our name onto the waitlist. Fortunately, we didn't have to wait long because the group ahead wanted to be seated outdoors, and they were willing to wait longer for an available table. Upon entry, we passed in front of their bakery, and my eyes caught sight of the almond croissants, fresh fruit tarts, and macarons. Oh, and then I saw their display of hand-forged steel Laguiole steak knife sets and pocket knives. The Laguiole knives are hand-forged, and their handles feature exotic horns or woods. I just had to stop to admire the craftsmanship and artistry of the blades as I've owned a set of Laguiole horn bolstered steak knives since the late '80s. Oops, sorry for my digression as I quickly looked away from the displays to see my husband, brother-in-law, and spouse seated at a table. No sooner than I sat down, a harried female server stopped by with menus and took our beverage order. While she went off to bring us our coffees and water, we noticed that she and one other server were working the tables of indoor and outdoor tables. It did take her a while to return with our beverages, but we weren't in a rush and could see many customers getting upset... We didn't want to add to her stress, so we just sat sipping on our beverages since she did take our breakfast orders but had to tend to the other tables. So, for today, the service was slow and understaffed. My brother-in-law apologized for the delay and said they've not usually had to wait so long. We chalked it up to saying "it is what it is" and just relaxed, sipping our coffees until the server could return with our meals. FOOD:- - Crêpe Maison: I expected a perfect crêpe from the French Corner, and I got one! This crêpe was filled with ham and Swiss cheese and topped with a fried egg, over-easy. I requested to have a green salad with Thousand Island dressing. I was pleased with my lunch as it was tasty and filling. $13.95 - Brie Bacon Hamburger: My husband and his younger brother ordered this huge and flavorful burger. Besides, isn't everything better with bacon?? The French Corner Café did not skimp on their bacon, Brie cheese, fresh lettuce, onion, and tomato toppings. $14.95 - Omelette Basquaise: this omelette was generously studded with ham, bell peppers, tomato, onions, garlic, and Swiss cheese. As I watched my brother's-in-law spouse cut into the omelette, I could see the melting strings of cheese stream down from his fork to plate. The only complaints were the somewhat limp French fries, and the server forgot his toast (which she delivered halfway through his meal). Other than, that he was happy with the flavors, portion size, and value of his lunch. $14.95 French Corner Café is a tasty and welcoming spot for breakfast and lunch in this shopping mall. We'd be happy to return. We did get breakfast croissants before we left Rancho Mirage to return to Los Angeles. read more

The place was very busy but I would imagine with some organization, it could have been a much better experience for all. Arrived this morning with my granddaughter who was looking forward to breakfast, first we stood and waited for over 15 minutes to be seated, that should have been our first clue to leave but my granddaughter wanted to stay, so we did. After being seated we waited to order for another good 15 minutes. Fortunately, it did not take long to get our order which was fine but then after eating and asking for a couple of boxes twice, and never got them, we waited more then 25 minutes for the check and nothing. I finally went to the cashier and then had to wait an additional while. Needless to say, I was very frustrated and don't think I could go back any time soon. read more

Delightful, warm, and charming, just like in France. Food was exceptionally done to our exact desires. read more

The food was very good. Got seated right away. Staff was very friendly. I will go there again.

I was very disappointed as was my husband. We have eaten here in the past, but not for awhile. the quality of the food was just not good. I had the duck sandwich with cranberry sauce and goat cheese. There was very little cranberry sauce and almost no goat cheese. The duck was served cold on a baguette. The salad looked wilted. Most disappointing was the price; it was $23.95. This is very high compared to other eateries in the area. While I normally would not complain about price, I feel strongly that this was not good value for the money and I will not be returning. read more

Cutest little restaurant. Duck salad is a favorite. Great service and ambiance. Take home a delicious French pastry!

Quaint cafe in Palm Dessert. I had the Crepe eggs Benedict, which was delicious, but I still prefer the traditional bread for my Benedict. Serving are generous, service was excellent. We had a large party coming for breakfast, towards the end of the breakfast hour and they ere still able to accommodated us, which was. Plus for us. Macarons and desserts were delicious, don't forget to take some home. read more

The place has a very welcoming home atmosphere. Staff was very friendly and took good care of us. Food was good too, however I wasn't blown away by it. I ordered a crape with chicken and mushrooms and, in my opinion, it was way too runny. Maybe it's supposed to be that way, not sure. The ratatouille crape was much better. Their creme brule was delicious and nothing like I have tasted before. I would come back to this place, but would order something else. read more

5 stars for the food, but the service itself is really slow. I even ordered to go and waited 30 extra minutes when I had to catch a flight. That aside it's amazing extravaganza of deliciousness! If you aren't in a hurry I would definitely recommend! Suggestion: French Toast and eggs Benedict! read more

So glad we stopped in! I wish we had the opportunity to sit down and try their cafe menu but it was a quick pop in for pastries. The almond croissant (not pictured because it was devoured before the opportunity, whoops!) was flakey and buttery and baked to perfection. The creme brûlée was perfection - that caramelized top and sweet custard pairing was a hit for all parties. If you have the opportunity to stop in definitely take it and enjoy this adorable cafe. read more

Nice customer service,food was good ...presentation was nice too .Price wise ,a little pricey for my budget.

A must try place in Palm Springs! I bring my mom here for breakfast all the time and am always impressed with the quality of each dish. The service is always quick and sweet! They have a pretty large selection of dishes for breakfast and they are all incredible! Get a croissant on the side... it is like no other in the valley! They freshly squeeze the orange juice to-order and it's incredible. The warm cozy morning ambiance this place harbors is enough to get me through the door alone. The authentic French cuisine is felt with every single bite. Although it is a tad pricier than other breakfast locations, the quality speaks for itself. TL;DR - The food is absolutely incredible. Everything (including the Orange Juice) is made to-order by people who know a thing or two about French Cuisine. Can be a bit pricey depending on your party, but is very much worth the price! Must go! read more

I love all the meals at this restaurant, especially the wonderful baked goods. The service is good and there is almost a French atmosphere, even when it is not crowded. And to me they have the best hamburgers I have ever tasted. There are so many different meals for every time of day. One note, they need better pictures of their menus on line! read more
