Influx Cafe

Located in Little Italy

People Watching Score: 9 out of 10

While visiting San Diego recently I was looking for a quick cafe to enjoy a cup of coffee and a muffin before going skydiving. Little Italy is one of my favorite neighborhoods in SD so of course I took a stroll.

Many of the eateries in Little Italy are a little too touristy for me; so I was happy to find Influx Cafe. It is just what you'd expect: a simple, clean, hopping cafe! And the muffins were great too!

The cafe is relatively small, but it has outdoor seating right on the sidewalk, and additional seating in a covered nook.

Its interior is spartan and bright, with a hint toward the mod.

Check it out.

If you're looking for the perfect people watching perch, then Joe's is the place to do it.


I can't say enough about Joe's Coffee and Cafe. First of all, what a great place to grab your second cup of coffee in Ptown on your way to the gym! Really. This past summer my morning routine was getting up super early, walking through town and grabbing my second cup of joe at Joe's. The town was so peaceful in the mornings.

You can arrive just as Joe's is opening and savor the rush of caffeine as other townspeople slowly open shops and walk their dogs.  I had some great conversations during those mornings. Warning: it can get very crowded in the late mornings and afternoons. So if you're like me and enjoy getting 'there' early and watching the crowd unfold before you, be warned.

Did I mention the bathroom? Well, I'm not a freak, but I do enjoy an attractive urinal every now and again. Joe's has one of the best urinals in town. Weird, huh? Understandably so, after drinking mega cups of coffee, one needs to use the bathroom. So now you know, Joe's can provide a charming urinal experience.

 
 

Koffi
Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Springs, CA 92262

Enjoying a coffee at Koffi with friends.

Guest Contributor, Huck, enjoys his daily tea! Oh how British!

Check out Koffi, a wonderful place to enjoy coffee, tea, frozen drinks or even food. I enjoy their salads. They also have great pastries. Try their low fat raspberry muffins......so good.


They are located in the Corridor plaza. Once inside the plaza there is an amazing courtyard to sit and enjoy the unobstructed views of Mt. San Jacinto, a 10,000 foot tall mountain right in the heart of Palm Springs.

A very gay friendly spot for a drink. Also, it is gay owned. Stop by. I'll see you there.

I really enjoyed this PS book. Check it out!

Hello There, I just returned from a wonderful visit to Palm Springs' newest cafe/coffee shop; Espresso Cielo. How wonderful on so many different levels. First of all, and most importantly...the owner and employees are great and so very inviting. We met the owner, named Michael . In addition to wonderful people, the coffee was terrific, served in, yes, too cute for words, blue cups and saucers...very oh so French...in my opinion. 

We sat outside with a dear friend and talked for nearly an hour or so. We ran in to so many interesting people too. The patio overlooks Palm Canyon (the main street in town). So it was fun to watch people walk by. 

Check it out. It has a wonderful atmosphere and like I said, the staff/employees are fabulous. 

Enjoy
