Very delicious foods from bakery items to menu! Not a vegetarian burger type of lady, but the vortex burger is quite delicious! Best vegetarian burger I’ve eaten! Great friendly staff and amazing atmosphere this place gives you in and all around!

Love this spot for brunch and lunch. So relaxing and peaceful. I love eating outside. The food is always super fresh & made with pride (though I prefer more variety on the menu). The staff is friendly. Nice to walk around property to see art installations after eating!

Always a great way to start your day. Healthy breakfast at Food for Thought Cafe inside the Joshua Tree Retreat Center. Did you know this place is open to the public and has the best breakfast in town. Stop by and say hi to Kathy, Chef Dave and the rest of the staff and enjoy. – at Joshua Tree Retreat Center

Confusing entrance. Pretty cool ambience. Tasty and healthy food. Quick service. Server with an attitude. Phinicky restroom door.

Haven’t been able to eat here as we have showed up on days it’s closed lol but I love the old school building and the area has all this cool art like a pyramid and sculptures and a meditation room (not sure if you can actually go in it but it has calming voices coming out of it) it’s just a cool place, we will be back to try the food soon lol

Traveled to the food for thought cafe and arrived at 12 in the afternoon on Sunday, and the entire place was shut down. I called, but no one answered. Pretty disappointed.

We came in for lunch. The staff was very nice. The food is cafeteria food that tastes like it’s just been reheated and but it’s priced like a restaurant. The setting is pleasant but the building feels run down like it hasn’t been updated since 1970. It could use a new coat of paint at the very least.
