I was specifically looking for delicious croissants and they had an assortment of them just freshly made. I was also given a sample of their carrot cake to try, that was super flavorful! My dad loved his croissant and best he has had here in the desert. My whole family will be back to order more & support this gem of a spot! Also, great prices :).

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.

Stopped by to meet a friend for a coffee and treat on a Thursday. It was PACKED for lunch...I got…read morethere around 12:15pm. I opted for a dirty chai latte and a dark chocolate beignet. I found a table for two, and quickly received by chai and beignet, both of which were quite yummy. My friends hibiscus iced tea and macaron order took longer for some reason. But she liked both and they gave a free refill on the iced tea, which is great! Looking forward to trying some main dishes there soon. The French fries look great, the salad portions were large, and their French onion soup is vegetarian, which makes me so excited to try it...in the winter! It would be a super cute spot for a Mother's Day brunch or really any occasion, but is pretty laid back and casual. They do have outdoor seating as well...which I also looking forward to trying out in the winter, ha.

We had breakfast here and brought some pastries and breads back with us…read more The restaurant is very clean and the staff is very friendly. It is an authentic french restaurant with high quality food and service. The breakfast was very good and you can tell they put effort into making sure the food both tastes good and looks good.

Hi! I am staying in Rancho Mirage and went here cos a friend with me wanted a croissant. Turns out…read morethis place is a restaurant as well as a bakery, so we stayed and I had the croque madame and a super frothy cappucino. Friend said his hot chocolate and croissant were great. My sandwich was great. Told Marc the owner who served us, this is gonna be the best meal of my day. I got takeout with steak and eggs and the onion soup for my son (clearly I'm spoiling him). Both were really good and the steak was tender. All items recommended. I may have to go back over the next couple days before heading back to L.A.

The entire…read moreexperience was over the top but the "icing on the cake" (see what I did there?) was the awesome cake designed and beautifully executed by Exquisite Desserts! I want to thank them, not only for a wonderful product, but for their professionalism and patience as I decided what it was I wanted for this auspicious occasion. Thank you for helping make the evening even more special!!!

Yum! I got the 4-pack for about $19, and I have no regrets. My favorite was the coconut. The…read morevanilla frosting was so fluffy and perfectly not too sweet. The cake was amazing, it had some sort of coconutty filling that made it really moist, kind of like a tres leches cake. The toffee chocolate was my second favorite. The chocolate frosting was perfect and not too sweet. They also had some gluten-free and keto options. Service was great, and it looked like they put the cupcakes together on the spot, which took a few minutes to prepare. I'll definitely be back for the yummy coconut cupcakes.

Somewhere between sunstroke and sugar cravings in the desert, we found ourselves at Tiffany's Sweet…read moreSpot... and honestly, bless the heat for guiding us there!!! We went in "just to look" (famous last words) and walked out with 3 cupcakes: vanilla bean, red velvet, and salted caramel toffee... plus a mocha tres leches parfait because self-control is seasonal and clearly out of stock!! Every single bite was the kind of good that makes you close your eyes mid-chew and ignore whoever's talking to you. But let's discuss the real star: the frosting!!! I was fully prepared for standard whipped cream or buttercream vibes, and instead got this cloud-like, silky situation that tasted rich but somehow light enough to justify eating an entire cupcake without emotional consequences. Tiffany herself let me in on the secret.... it's Italian meringue buttercream. So basically, classy buttercream that went to finishing school. Tiffany is also an absolute gem... warm, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what she's baking up. You can taste the love (and the butter, but mostly the love)!!! If you're in the desert and your sweet tooth starts whispering reckless ideas, listen to it. And definitely support this family-owned local spot. We'll be back for "research purposes" and to satisfy our sweet tooth!!

My party all got their food and ai was just standing there like a little kid waiting with anticipation. 5/5 Food I am just thinking of how warm the sandwich was. Went with the special of the day. I can still savor it, makes my mouth water. The Smoked Pastrami was delicious! Pastrami was tender, the garlic buttered french roll added a nice flavor along with the French fries. 5/5 Ambiance Seating in or outdoors. Lots of space even when it's busy. 5/5 Parking Spots are as available as the chips along the line inside. 6/5 Likelihood to Return I can't wait for work to send me to Indio again so I can try another one and walk the line to order.

I opted for a breakfast burrito which was made with quality ingredients. The burrito tasted clean, non-greasy and filling. I totally understand why they closed the cafe with the cost of labor and overhead increasing. The new set up is self-service and they still offer a good size dining area and free wifi so you can enjoy a meal or beverage.

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.
