Great. Great. Great. Spot. We usually go to Starbucks when we come to PS because we like to people watch there. Today we decided to venture out to a different coffee spot. The ambiance was amazing. The iced Americano was amazing. The service was amazing. Their outdoor patio was very chill and nice to hangout while drinking our coffee. Definitely recommend and we definitely will be coming back

This cafe is a pretty standard, trendy cafe located closer to the edge of Palm Springs downtown. The line was long. It was close to a 15 minute wait to get to the counter, but they made the drink quickly. The matcha was ceremonial grade and I personally enjoy them unsweetened so the default matcha latte with oat milk was good. There's lots of seating to enjoy your drink outside if it's not too hot out.

Warm welcomes, smiles, great coffee and small snacks. Great place to work with an indoor/outdoor atmosphere. I just love the retro vibe.

Atmosphere was incredible and super cute! Loved the outdoor seating and all the decor. I ordered the breakfast sandwich, and was very yummy with the chipotle aioli sauce. Breakfast potatoes were a great balance between crispiness and softness. Their chaga drink with mushrooms tasted amazing, even though I'm not too much of a coffee drinker. We also got their chocolate chip cookie, but was a bit too hard and sweet for my liking. All in all, would return if I'm in town again!Service, however, was a bit out of the norm for me. I was with 4 other people. I had kindly asked our waitress for some napkins, when none of us had napkins. Our waitress showed up with two napkins for me and not for the table, which I was not expecting. She also asked one of my friends if he wanted to grab utensils himself or if she should grab one for him...

Super cute environment. Looks like tons of inside and outside outlets for a work remote set up. Cute shops all around. Food menu looked delicious but we just came for coffee.

Found this little coffee shop on yelp and decided to visit. When I arrived, it looked like it's super popular. The line was really long but again it was Coachella weekend . The matcha was okay . Next time I go to Palm Springs will go back when it's less crowded . Took some pic to share

Adorable place perfect for a fun visit and a couple pics with the gang in their artistic vibes... But food was off and simple coffee order (nonfat iced latte) was made wrong (definitely was full fat milk). Breakfast potatoes were stone cold and barley cooked, but the eggs in the breakfast sandwich were nice and fluffy.Maybe the kitchen and barista just had an off moment... But if going back I'd personally just order a simple coffee and maybe get a pastry instead of a dish... But still take some fun pics of the cool environment.Vegetarian options: Can modify breakfast sandwiches to be veg (e.g. hold the bacon/sausage)
Great little place! Nice outdoor area! Friendly staff, very quick and efficient. Drinks were great. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Palm Springs

What Brooklyn is to New York, what Silverlake is to LA, is what La Jefa is to Palm Springs - THE hangout spot!!! La Jefa not only offers delicious coffee but also healthy food on top of the valley's best people watching. It's hip, it's cool, it's something Palm Springs needed - a spot for the "younger" generation. The service is always outstanding. Just like the coffee shop, the baristas are super hip! And I'm so excited that we now turn into a "dessert place" on the weekends!!

The service was good. The food came pretty fast. The presentation of the dish was pretty sad. The flavor nothing special to come back. I make better coffee, chai tea and food at home. There was a very long line to order a food that was not special. I won't go back.

As I strolled from The Fall Spa towards Cafe La Jefa, basking in Palm Springs' radiant atmosphere, I couldn't help but marvel at life's simple joys. The outdoor seating next to the airstream at Cafe La Jefa is simply divine, providing the perfect setting to soak in the beauty of these surroundings. It's a must-visit spot for any high-flying Los Angeles socialite en route to experience the best of the Coachella Valley. Don't forget to accessorize with a lovely hat and a beautiful tote bag to complete the desert chic look. And for those last-minute essentials, The Flannery Exchange is a gem, offering a great selection from its various shops. As I reflect on this day ( Saturday, April 6th, 2024 ) I'm filled with gratitude for the opportunity to savor life's pleasures in such a picturesque setting. God bless, and may your day ( and night ) be as beautiful as the one I've had.

Cutest spot with delicious food! The strawberry chia seed pudding tasted like a milkshake! My vanilla oat milk matcha was one of the best I’ve ever had (and I drink A LOT of matchas!). The food we tried was all delicious and the outdoor seating is so cute.
