Coffee Here

There are more coffee joints than breweries in the Coachella Valley and Palm Springs Life has reviewed some of its local purveyors in The Joy of Coffee

I was surprised when I read that the beans used at Ernest Coffee were from a roaster in Oregon. Cafe La Jefe's beans come from Colorado.  But most of our local cafes get their beans from local roasters.

I created the following list using the information from the Palm Springs Life article to keep track of where these places are. You know, just in case I'm out and about and a need a coffee. (I have personally sampled the places noted in red.)

There are other notable coffee places about town that were not included in the Palm Springs Life article:
According to the Desert Sun, we will soon have a new coffee roaster (and tap house!) in downtown Coachella at Coachella General

Coffee and beer at the same location? We could not be more pleased.

Take note the next time you're vacationing in the desert: There's plenty of local coffee houses to try. And, while the local beers here are very good, there aren't nearly enough breweries. 

Cheers!
