Of course needed to get a coffee for the road before leaving the area at the end of 4th of July weekend. I saw Koffi a couple times throughout the weekend & didnt realize its pretty much the big local coffee chain. So made sense to try it out & happy I did.ITEMS ORDERED:I just decided to go with an Iced Americano. I like how there were two options for espresso, of which I of course chose the dark roast.The gf ordered an Matcha St. Tropez Green Latte (soy milk, less sweet).TASTE:I often get an Iced Americano at local coffee shops, especially when they have dark roast because I feel its one of the best ways to actually taste the coffee. The one I had here is definitely one Id like to get again. From the first sip it does have a very pleasant deeper dark roast flavor, pretty clean & refreshing. Well as much as a coffee can be refreshing.The Matcha St. Tropez Green Latte (soy milk, less sweet) had a pretty interesting profile I dont often taste in this drink the gf usually orders. After reviewing in the menu Im pretty sure its from the steamed sweet vanilla cream because I detected a vanilla flavor right away. The matcha flavor was a little weak but she likes an overly strong matcha so I imagine most people would be fine with it.SERVICE, LOCATION & PARKING:Service was very nice & friendly which is pretty much what Id expect from a local coffee shop.This Koffi is located on E Palm Canyon Dr, corner of S Camino Real, pretty much adjacent to the Ace Hotel.Its a fairly good sized coffee shop with a nice amount of both inside & outside seating. & The high ceilings make it seem even bigger which I like. Design looked very clean & organized inside. You get the vibe this place is the local, dominant coffee chain with the displays of Koffi merch & bag coffee for home brewing.I see myself coming back here when Im in the area since I really like my Iced Americano & the service was great. Might even have to try a baked good since the muffins looked really appealing. Also, I see you can mobile order & they have 4 locations (as of July 2021) which makes it even more convenient.
Solid coffee selections, tasty dark roast. Muffins super delicious. Nothing spectacular, just good java
Seriously good coffee and food! The shop is clean and run very efficiently by a friendly and accommodating staff. Best coffee in PS!
The staff seems overwhelmed, its a busy place in the morning. Not a relaxing environment and you are crushed together with others waiting for your order, which has been frequently wrong. Once you get your order, the patio is nice and enjoyable.
Made a really big online order with 8 different drinks and 8 food items. Order was ready exactly when my email confirmation said it would be, with friendly service and a smile. Everything was correct with my order, everything was hot and everyone was happy. I fully expected at least a hiccup or two with how busy this place gets on the weekend, but felt compelled to write a review and say thank you for the perfect experience. Oh yeah, everything was delicious!
Locals love Koffi because it is local, 3 locations. Visitor love it because the staff is friendly and there is a great desert vibe. Depending upon the weather, the outdoors patios are lively for sipping, chatting, and people watching. Well behaved dogs are most welcome outside.
Like Starbucks for rich people. $710 for an egg mcmuffin. My Carmel vanilla latte was good tho.
Ive been in Palm Springs for a year now but this was the first time I have had Koffi. I walked over to get a visiting friend and myself something to drink and check out the pastry offerings. When I got to the entrance, the was a line about 15 people deep waiting to order. I almost turned around and left and Im glad that I waited!The line moved quickly with two people taking orders. I probably stood in line for a max of 10 min before placing my order, which gave me time to stare at the case with all the incredible looking muffins, breakfast sandwiches and scones.I ordered a drip coffee, ice tea, and four pastries. The people in front of me to order were now all waiting for their espresso drinks so I was happy to see they did have employees who were dedicated to making the other beverages as well. I waited less than 5 min for my two drinks and was out the door!The coffee was excellent and friend said the ice tea was good as well. The coffee cake muffins were awesome and the croissants just as good. I def will be back and sorry it took me so long to try!
Just had my first visit. Can I say I’m impressed!!! Autumn helped me with my order and recommended a iced lavender latte!!! Let’s just say I have a new addiction now!!! So delicious!!! Autumn was friendly, professional and personable!!! She’s a keeper! I’ll definitely be back!
This is everything a good coffee shop should be. Great product served with world class customer service. Love to shop and eat local as much as posdible.
Really good coffee tastes so clean and smooth never bitter every time I come to visit my brother have to stop here thank you for the excellent quality and service
Nice staff, quick service.Pastries are definitely on the higher end but that just may be the new norm at coffee shops.
Saw the name of the store Koffi and had to try it. Reminded me of my favorite restaurant in New York, The Tyger. If the tyger can become my favorite restaurant of all time, Koffi can be my favorite place to get coffee. Staff is real nice, there is a ton of seating and there is an abundance of parking in the area. Will come back the next time im in Palm Springs.
Good service but after I left with drink, to far to return. Cream on drink had turned..had to throw drink out. Disappointing on a $6.00 drink.
Place was cool. Price equivalent to Starbucks, but coffee a much higher quality. Plus they had a sugar free mocha which was SUPER good and not too fake sweet. My husband got the hot chocolate which he said was very tasty. We are from out of the area, but would come again if in palm springs again.
Extremely friendly crew... Fast and efficient... They even had a line of customers
Friendly staff, even when crowed, they moved the line very efficiently (beat Starbucks); their bold coffee was excellent & the 4 berry smoothie was delicious!
Excellent coffee, menu options and super friendly staff. Ill definitely go back. Comfortable seating outside.
Friendly guys, best customer service.
She made my hair look so good. Exactly what I like, she always listens to me, and I am super happy and pleased with the outcome. Throughout the entire service, she entertains me and never hesitates to answer any of my questions to my full satisfaction. Keep up with it. Severely recommended!
Essential destination in Coachella valley. Legend has it this started as a bakery with coffee. Well the muffins are proof of that & the coffee is first class. Not just a place for coffee but a true meeting spot where locals meet hipsters meet snowbirds.
Pleasant employees, VERY expensive and mediocre pastries! Koffi better than Starbucks! Try to go when you can find a place c e to sit!
Omg best place eeever! Timothy was fantastic and extremely sociable he is an asset. Everything was heavenly. I am definitely coming back. This place is warm and fuzzy.lol love it
Both the cold brew and iced coffee are really good. Good service considering how busy it is, with a nice online order system.
Absolutely hands down the best cortado Ive ever had. This place is so good!
My latte took longer than expected. No big deal but when the singing barista set my drink on the stand he did not call my name. Waited a sec and asked if the one there was mine? Didn’t touch it in case it wasn’t. He checked and said what it was and stated it was mine. Then he replied “we called that”. He did not. I know my name and I was waiting 3 feet from him. Bottom line is he should have acknowledged my drink and just let me go. Instead he was arrogant and argumentative. Won’t be back at any location.
Superior baristas..plrasant, say welcome when I enter, create my order, Cortado, with a design!
We stopped by for coffee and cake and were very impressed by their helpful staff, great atmosphere, and affordable prices. It is a great place where you could go to watch the people and read the signs on the wall or step out back to an exhibit. The atmosphere is everything here, and the coffee is good!
I love the aromas, and the food was great. It doesn’t matter whether you have breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and you will enjoy it! The servings are enormous, and everything is always very fresh. The venue has a cool vibe with college kids working in study groups and tourists stopping in for a bite.
Muffins are amazing, next time will buy 6 or more take home.
Wonderful place to have a cup of coffee
We were walking by this place, and we decided to recharge. It looks like a typical college town place for coffee very laid back and comfortable. Turns out that the coffee is excellent. We will definitely come back and recommend the coffee shop to my friends and family.
Great ristretto. Sleek and practically curated.
I am visiting from MN.I walked down to Kotti.It was worth waiting in line.Really excellent coffee, quiche & muffins. Fresh & delicious.
The food is INCREDIBLE, the breakfast sandwich is my favorite. Theres also great customer service. I was greeted by the staff and was super sweet. One of the owners, too, was on the list and very hospitable.
Such a great coffee shop and very COVID-safe. The staff was friendly, the menu is great, and the coffee is good. Wish we could see this place when there wasn’t a pandemic. It is clear that the community would gather here.
Basic upscale coffe shop. Had decent sandwhichs, and the espresso was flavorful. They do have light and dark roast for their espresso, better for those who cant stand the burnt taste of dark espresso.
Took 45 mins to get a coffee this morning. Lots of other people also waiting a long time for orders.
I finally found a coffee shop in my area. Nice, and strong full-flavored, and not as expensive as some of the others Ive tried before. They have a good coffee and friendly service throughout. The ambiance is so good, and the internet connection is fast. I would strongly recommend this coffee shop to everyone who loves coffee.
Easy in and out. Great Koffi choices!
It must be great because the line to get a cup of coffee was out the door and down the sidewalk, too long for me to wait during the work day.
This shop was truly the best than any other! The coffee and foods were delicious and very good. Besides, the waiters/waitresses that were working there were all very friendly and nice to the customers.
It’s good to be at this beautiful and classic shop that I have ever seen. Keep up the great job. Till next time!
I patiently waited with all the other upset customers waiting for their drinks. I was in a good mood and I saw they seemed busy. A women next to me said she had been waiting 30 mins, “no big deal” I thought. I could wait 30 mins over the time my drink was supposed to be ready. people that complained were getting their drinks way before me, but I didn’t want to be rude so I kept waiting... over 50 mins I asked to make sure they even had my drink at all. Rudely told they were working on all orders. Then someone finally looked for my name and started making my drink. Left feeling horrible and they didnt even make my drink right. Worst experience I’ve ever had at a coffee shop. I live down the street and will NEVER go back. Don’t waste your time or your money on $6 drinks that take an hour to make.
The pineapple black ice tea was delicious 😋
Cori the Baker is the reason I will never come here. Once people are past middle age, theyre old. ... Of course, calling someone old is generally not considered polite. CORI referred to my mom as old and my mom is better looking than her at 79 years old!
The coffee freeze drink was great, but the breakfast sandwich was not good at all. The cinnamon roll was ok and maybe would have been better if they gave the option to heat it up. Definitely won’t be back for food, but maybe for a sweet coffee drink. Also, was a bit expensive for what it was.
I highly recommend Koffi South Palm Springs! they are so accomodating and courteous at the same time. Sadly its take out but still it was fine!
The best local coffee shop in the desert. They have a few locations. I love the pineapple coconut muffin. The coffee freezes are really good and can be made with soy milk.
Service and coffee are excellent!
Great coffee just be ready to wait a good 10 minutes for it! Super nice staff just super disorganized.
Great coffee, excellent blackberry muffin, friendly service. Perfect experience. No complaints.
I tasted your coffee last Friday afternoon and I was very so shocked because the taste was very delicious and I just want to order it again and again.
Wow! What a great place... you get a warm reception from the crew and the service is really good!! Not to forget... their coffee rocks!!
Terrific coffee. Always good.
A great alternative to Starbucks. Though Starbucks is just fine too.
Great coffee! Strong full flavor!
Cheers to more customers in the future. Such an amazing service! I will surely come back!
The mocha freeze is AMAZING!!
Love this place..great service, always good coffee
The cold brew was extremely good. Also they have pinapple coconut muffin which was very tasty. I had matcha frozen, didnt like it as much as their coffee. Staff were very friendly and helpful 🙂
Oh Koffi. How I love you. You are the perfect execution, what the universe intended the cafe to be. You make me wish I lived here again, and youve only gotten better over time. Thank you for employing such kind people, having wonderful lattes, and for giving us such amazing pastries. I ate and drank everything before I had time to take photos to share.It would be very cool for you all to develop a concept with a more intimate setting with big comfortable chairs and lounge vibes: coffee in the morning and wine in the day and evening. Koffi & Vine coming to a place near us?
Great Koffi. Great service. Our favorite spot when we come to town.
Great place! Great location! Dirty Chai was a suggestion and now Im hooked... Kimberly and Brooklyn helped me out and were very friendly and helpful.
A nice shades & outdoor tables for yummy ice latte ...
This particular location just feels good! Friendly staff and a quaint outdoor patio option with shade trees and a fountain. Coffee isnt bad either 😏
Fabulous! Except the eternally long lines...
Fantastic coffee and tea. Delicious treats. Perfect to just sit and enjoy surroundings. Looking forward to our next visit.
Nice variety of large and tasty pastries. Drinks made to order. Friendly service. Even friendly folks waiting in line.
I usually love to support Koffi throughout palm Springs. But, this morning at Koffi ( across from Ace Hotel) the elderly ladie serving at the cashier this morning was more concerned about gossiping with co workers then the line out the door. I was disappointed at the lack of concern that she had for people waiting to support this establishment in these trying times. I dont usually right reviews, but...this WAS NOT GOOD.
Fantastic food & coffee. However, long line and only accepted cash. No sign outside stating this. People leaving disgruntled, ...put a sign outside!
Koffi locations are generally all great. I believe theres three in the Palm Springs area my favorite is the South store the one I frequent the most and it has the most space inside and outside.The vibe is always good the coffee is great and the other products scones, bagels, sandwiches there often great so its a mainstay when youre in Palm Springs.
Great selection of organic coffee, nice pastries, but a bit too sweet for my taste, although if a lot of sugar is not a deterrent, youll love all of them. This location has a very nice outdoor seating area. Its a small and very popular place, so it gets very crowded. Friendly and efficient employees. I appreciate the fact that the company focuses more on organic and sustainable products.
The staff were very friendly
The loveliest staff! I messed up my own order *forgot to ask for dairy-free* and they so graciously remade my drink! Such gems! Will def come back!P.s. the green tea freeze is delicious!!
Very solid coffee here but its the pineapple coconut muffins that bump this to a 5! Dint leave without one.
Great coffee, atmosphere and sweet treats. Decent size patio, large enough to feel safe right now
Good coffee. Great service. Pastries were horrible. Scone was as salty as the Salton Sea. If a French person sees that croissant it might start World war three.
Always Great service and spot on ....Love it
Great quality of beverages and food to choose from and a wonderful friendly staff. Needless to say then they are real busy in the mornings. Things can get a little crazy behind the counters which causes the flow to slow down. Better deployment perhaps? Maybe the management needs to have better training program for the new kids/hires. Regardless its a great place to come meet friends or to work on a project.
Oh their coffee is amazing! We were lucky enough to grab a couple bags of it before we left Palm Springs and have been savoring it since! The Eight4nine blend is really good as is this darker roast we also got. Looking forward to visiting again next time we are out that way :)
Visited on a holiday, so lines were long, but the staff handled them beautifully. Had an Americano and bought a pound of espresso roast. Enjoyed the coffee.
The cold brew was delicious and smooth. We had a couple of really amazing drinks here. The place had a bunch of people but managed the line really efficiently. Definitely will go back next time Im in town.
Ive been to a lot of coffee shop but this place hands down has the best iced coffee. I mean all their coffees and teas are great. Im a iced coffee guy so I love the way they make my iced coffee. They really listen to their customers. I visit this place often when visiting.
Good coffee!!!
Very friendly and helpful workers behind the counter. The place was full but everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves without it being cramped or disruptive. 🐶 Pet bowls available for the pooch as well. Me and my partner had a malted drink, one hot the other iced... Both worth trying again.
Very well located and thet open at 5.30am so you can be ready for hiking before the heat. Great selection of coffee and pastries. No the cheapest place in town but very convenient. Muffins are huge and delicious.
