    This is the gem of Joshua Tree (besides the National Park, of course). Fresh. Plant-based. Goodness. If it wasn't for the giant "vegan" sign I spotted from the main road while headed to the park, I would have totally driven by without noticing this place. It's in a building that looks like it belongs in Pioneertown and not where you'd expect to find a vegan cafe. Grabbed a couple of smoothies on our way back from visiting the park right before they closed for the day and they were both terrific. If you can't decide - go with the Chocolate Sun Butter with added brownie bits (recommended to me by the friendly gal behind the walk-up window). It's definitely one of the best smoothies I've EVER had! I look forward to stopping in again (hopefully post-covid) and experiencing their vegan brunch menu.

    Can't miss sign!

    I made a pit stop here while visiting Joshua tree and heading back home to LA. I didn't realize at first it was a vegan place but food looked amazing in pictures and decided to take a chance. So happy that I did because as expected it was so tasty and the wrap I ordered with side salad was soooo yummy. Also had their smoothie and that was different but not terrible or anything. The staff was helpful and food came out quick and fresh. I hope to be back to this place soon.

    View across boulevard is nice.

    E for Exceptional! Earned more than 5-stars! The menu is quite large, I mean it actually measures about 8' x 6' ... maybe even bigger. If you need some direction or suggestions, meet April . . . the warm and kind human that takes your order and brings it to your outdoor table. April walked me through a couple of menu items that appealed to me and I ended up having (devouring) the 50/50 wrap with eggplant, pesto and avocado. It came topped with a beautiful bunch of dressed greens. The photos don't do it justice. The wrap is a large, soft pita. I ate every bite! For something sweet and cool, April recommended a mixed berry with banana smoothie. It was perfect! There are plenty of outdoor tables. And even though I was solo the setting was perfect and neat and casual and comfortable. Parking lot is decent and the bathroom was clean with ample supplies.

    Pesto cado

    Such a unique menu that's healthy and filling for post-Joshua tree hiking. The Pestocado was something that'll make you want to recreate it at home! The hummus wrap has nothing but a smooth tasty hummus with fresh vegetables adding amazing texture to the meal. Saffron rose rice pudding caught our attention so we ordered it and although we were extremely full, we were glad to have experienced the floral dessert! the coco rosie was delicious! I wish the cup was bigger. A small gravel parking lot is available to pull into. When we arrived it was around 10:30a and there were no crowds.

    Fantastic delicious food and special, super sweet customer service! We were a tad confused at the order outside system, unsure if they were open, but the kind employee popped out to give us the scoop. Cute western looking building and a great restroom. You order at the window and they bring out to your car. The food was fresh and crazy delicious. The seasonings on the salad were magical!!! We inhaled it. The kid in our party loved the warm pita bread :) the stuffed avocados, hummus, coffee, rose water saffron rice pudding, and eggplant toast were 10 stars. Seriously so good. While we were eating outside in the sunshine on their hay bales, they employee came out to bring us two free vegan GF chocolate cupcakes as a treat, how nice!! Thanks for a great experience.

    My go to spot for allergen-free yummies after a trip to Joshua Tree. This is a family owned operation & everything is so thoughtfully made every time I come here. Ask for the sea moss face mask for a rejuvenating skin treat. :)

    We were visiting Yucca Valley, and decided to stop by the place on day 1 of our stay. We liked the place so much, that we visited it every single day of our trip. If you are vegan, then don't look any further, this is the spot! The location is right next to the main highway 62, so very convenient if you are on the way to Joshua Tree or Palm Springs. There is enough parking (so it wasn't an issue). Note that they are open only Fri-Sun. They are offering only takeout, but there are some tables outside, so you can sit and enjoy. Over the 3 days, we tried several items from their menu: Earl grey lavender iced tea, Hibiscus rose iced tea, chocolate sunbutter smoothie, chickpea salad wrap (entree), stuffed avocado- tried both pesto as well as chickpea (entree), eggplant toast (entree), chocolate cake, saffron rice pudding. Everything we tried was delicious. There were definitely some repeat orders as well in the 3 consecutive day visits. They serve pretty fast, you order at the booth, wait in your car and they bring it to your car. On one of the occasion, they even added some gluten-free chips on the house, such a sweet gesture. If you are vegan or meat eater, visiting the area or passing by, definitely give it a try. Highly recommend it.

    Literally my favorite place to eat. Anywhere. I love the freshness and it's simplicity. Yummy yummy in my tummy. But don't tell too many people ... it is a hidden gem Everything is amazing. Eggplant toast , the stuffed avocados , smoothies , desserts , you cannot go wrong Did I mention it's all vegan ?

    Half and half (eggplant & hummus dip)

    Came here for a healthy breakfast, indoor dining wasn't an option but it sure was nice outside so that was okay. Loved to see all the healthy options on the menu, would love to come back to try more!

    Delicious everything! 100% recommend to stop by whenever this little place is open. Never disappointed love the rose hot chocolate.

    Very good vegan spot in Joshua Tree and reasonably priced. We went for brunch and got: 1. Pesto-Cado which came with a whole avocado+pesto, salad and pita bread. 2. Hummus wrap: the garlic in hummus is light and not overpowering, 3. Saffron Rose Rice Pudding: reminds me chai latte in pudding form, 4. Coco Rosie: hot chocolate + rose water, very floral, 5. Dirty Rosie: coco rosie + coffee. Everything is good and I love the healthy options! Outdoor seating only

    cutest exterior ever!
    Himani Y.

    tldr: the cutest little spot ever! we had to stop by when we saw "vegan cafe" on the way to joshua tree in february. healthy, yummy, and all made and served by the sweetest people ever! *** food: we got the 50/50 wrap (flavorful, we really liked it), the hummus wrap (fresh-feeling but still filled me up), and the hummus box, which came with a great side salad. the hummus was super garlicky -- good thing we all LOVE garlic! drinks: we got the mango immunity smoothie, and it was SO good. i didn't expect it to be, because honestly, it's an immunity smoothie! it honestly got better with every sip! service: order at the window and your food is brought out to your car/table on trays! bonus points: cute, unexpectedly clean little bathroom.

    Jiaqi M.

    As a non vegan, the entrees, smoothies, and desserts are so delicious! We came here every day in Joshua Tree, and the servers/chefs were also so welcoming and friendly. My favorites are their large salad (honestly one of the best salads I have ever had), mango or mixed berry smoothie, rice pudding (all desserts)--but honestly everything was well balanced and unique!

I bought a home in the desert two years ago and now live here full time. I came in solo on September 10th for a cocktail and a burger to go. I was feeling particularly down around 9/11, being from NYC and having been in the area when it happened, and just wanted to sit somewhere familiar and comfortable for a bit. I ordered a cocktail to stay and a cheeseburger to go, and the bartender immediately said, "The kitchen is busy, I don't think we can do a to-go order." I explained that I'm a local and have ordered food to go here many times and asked him to please check. Eventually he took the order, but the cocktail wasn't good and when I got home, the burger I specifically ordered well done was medium to medium rare. The point of hospitality is to be hospitable. I've been coming here for years, and I'm genuinely confused as to why ordering a burger to go became such a difficult and unwelcoming experience.

Overall, I'd say it's a good choice for a pizza made from scratch. My only real negative was the customer service. The lady at the counter seemed uninterested and somewhat oblivious to basic customer service. I called my order in ahead of time, paid when I arrived, and was told it would be another 10 minutes. I came back just nine minutes later, and she had already forgotten my name and that I had paid. Place was empty as well, not busy. No offer of parmesan cheese or hot chili flakes. Finally, the caesar salad we ordered was large and came with a tiny, I mean super tiny plastic thimble of dressing barely enough to cover a leaf of lettuce. The pizza was definitely worth trying, but a little more attention to the customer experience would make the visit much better... and maybe more salad dressing?
