Any thoughts?

      The Joshua Tree house we rented is owned by a discerning, hip (obviously but we don't know her) lady in L.A. who includes a list of local dining options with her comments. I wish I'd copied down the all suggestions, since we only ate out once or twice. (We cooked in. Husband is a chef.) But the places we did try, were great!

      Crossroads Cafe - decent homemade breakfast, lunch
      Teacakes Bakery - maybe best bakery of my life. great bread, cookies, pastries, sweets
      http://teacakes.biz
      Ricochet - a sort of market with upscale cheeses (Cowgirl Creamery!), wine, sandwiches, and to go options http://www.ricochetjoshuatree.com/
      Pappy and Harriet's - meat and music in Pioneertown http://www.pappyandharriets.com/

        I really liked Crossroads Cafe. The Grilled Coyote sandwich (chicken breast, bacon, mushrooms, cheese) was delicious and the staff is really nice -- one of them came over with a smoothie for my crying toddler. Also, the Ginger Miso salad dressing is one of the best dressings I've ever tasted.

        Yes there are a couple of places but nothing famous for great food
