Cathedral City, CA
Popular Coachella Valley coffee company Koffi is adding a new chapter to its story with the future opening of its first-ever drive-through location. The new café will be located at 67260 Ramon Road, Cathedral City, CA 92234, right on the border of Palm Springs, making it easily accessible to both residents and commuters.
Koffi currently operates four popular cafés in the region: Palm Springs North, Palm Springs Central, Palm Springs South, and Rancho Mirage. Known for its locally roasted, high-quality coffees and signature blends, the company has long been a staple for both desert locals and visitors seeking a taste of the “Desert Vibe.”
The new drive-through marks an exciting expansion for Koffi, which has built its reputation on more than just coffee. Customers enjoy a full menu of freshly prepared beverages and food while taking in the desert sunshine, scenic mountain views, and the energy of the diverse Palm Springs community. With the Cathedral City location, fans of Koffi will now be able to experience the same offerings with the added convenience of staying on the go.
In addition to enjoying coffee in-store or at the drive-through, customers can also bring home Koffi’s signature blends with whole beans available for purchase at all locations and online.
The Cathedral City opening cements Koffi’s commitment to serving the Coachella Valley while evolving to meet the needs of its loyal customers.

The team behind the acclaimed Workshop Kitchen + Bar has officially launched Noble Yeast, a new venture dedicated to wood-fired sourdough pizza that’s already making waves across the Coachella Valley.
The project began just over a year ago, when the team took their mobile oven on the road, serving hand-stretched pies at farmers markets and bars throughout the high and low desert. The positive community response inspired the development of a full-fledged brand, one rooted in the same culinary passion and craft that has defined Workshop Kitchen.
At the center of Noble Yeast is Chef Michael’s wild yeast starter, affectionately named Hugo, first cultivated in 2020. Today, every pie starts with that same living culture. The dough—made simply with organic “00” flour, water, salt, and starter—is cold-fermented for up to four days to produce exceptional flavor and texture.
Drawing on Chef Michael’s heritage in France, Germany, and Switzerland, the menu follows a “Cal-Ital” philosophy: seasonal, ingredient-driven, and accented with house-made ferments and salumi. Pizzas like the Calabrese (spicy Calabrian salami, fresh peach, red onion, crème fraîche, smoked mozzarella, parmesan, and arugula) and the Pepperoni (topped with Sicilian oregano and spicy local honey) showcase the inventive yet approachable style.
Guests can catch the Noble Yeast food truck throughout the Coachella Valley, including frequent stops at Truss & Twine in Palm Springs and regional farmers markets in Rancho Mirage, Indian Wells, and Yucaipa. Upcoming dates include:
The fall schedule expands to include regular appearances at Rancho Mirage and Indian Wells Certified Farmers Markets.
For the owners, Noble Yeast represents more than just pizza—it’s about community. “It’s been a rewarding way of cooking and engaging with our community beyond the walls of the restaurant,” the team shared. “Every pie is a piece of that journey.”

Downtown Palm Springs has a new destination for coffee lovers with the opening of Coffeeism Co., a family-run café blending Scandinavian design with precision brewing. Located at 110 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way, the shop officially opens full-time this week after a successful soft launch over the weekend.
Founded by Guillaume, Melissa, and Bodhi, Coffeeism Co. reflects decades of hospitality experience, a passion for travel, and a commitment to detail. “We didn’t just open a coffee shop,” the owners shared. “We built a place we wanted to exist.”
Inside, the café’s Scandinavian-minimalist bar features concrete accents, light wood, and clean lines that create a serene backdrop for the buzz of espresso and the aroma of fresh pastries. Intelligentsia espresso anchors the menu, alongside a rotating single-origin drip program and seasonal iced creations “that feel like the desert in a glass.”
Guests will also find shelves stocked with French macarons, Italian pastries, cold-pressed juices, curated retail, and playful branded merchandise. On the walls, a “muse” serves as a reminder that coffee, here, is both ritual and art.
Coffeeism Co. invites patrons to experience Palm Springs in their own way—whether sipping a cortado at the window counter, people-watching from the patio, or engaging in conversation with the baristas about beans, travel, or croissants.
“Every choice is deliberate,” the team explained, noting that even the drink sizes reflect their philosophy: medium and large only, never small.
The soft opening drew visitors from across the Coachella Valley, with the team expressing gratitude for the turnout. “The energy from this community gave us the best possible start,” they wrote on social media. “From Coachella to Thermal, Indio, Palm Desert, Desert Hot Springs, and of course Palm Springs, we felt the love from the entire valley.”
Coffeeism Co. is now open daily from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., offering locals and visitors alike a new space to sip slow, hustle hard, and stay caffeinated.
