Reviewed By MarlySF - Concord, United States
We enjoyed browsing the small (but good) Sunday market very much, especially talking to some of the vendors. We had a few friendly conversations, especially with the representatives from the City of La Quinta (they had free stuff, like sunglasses in case you forgot yours) and the vendors from Nora's Empanada Factory, where we purchased some of their wares --- chicken and spinach/feta cheese. Excellent, on enjoying for dinner later. We were tourists --- visiting the area for a week and had a kitchen (and do most of our own cooking) but we'd just stocked up with plenty of veggies at a supermarket two days earlier so bought no produce, but all of the stands were very colorful and fresh looking, with local variety. If we lived there, we would have indulged. Because the market is more of a "boutique market" (small), do not expect a large, busy farmer's market (such as we have in our home town). COVID protocols were taken into account --- with a large MASKS REQUIRED sign as we entered. Also, people were social distancing, likely from habit at this point -- plus some of the vendors had tape across their area so that patrons could order what they wanted but not bunch up right by the produce. It was a reminder of "distancing." The vendors at the produce stands were very attentive to customers and helped them choose and bag. Other than produce and empanadas, there was an eclectic collection of other artisan foodstuffs, like honey and a sweet bread item whose name I can't remember and more. This little market was not packed with crowds, so it was easy and relaxing to browse and wander on a beautiful blue-sky Sunday morning. Parking is free and right down/across the street. We were glad we drove the dozen miles to the market the first Sunday in November. Old Town La Quinta is a beautiful area (not actually "old," but certainly traditional-looking) in California Mission style. Plenty of shops and restaurants are open also. We enjoyed our morning there so much that we spent more time at TQLAS restaurant, down the block from the market. We are returning to the Palm Springs area in the Spring and plan to shop at this market again.
10. La Quinta Brewing Co.
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 35 reviews
The Greater Palm Springs area, known around the world for its resorts and sunshine, is now home to great craft beer! La Quinta Brewing Co. opened its doors in the fall of 2013, and has quickly become a local favorite throughout the desert. Although relatively young, it’s already an award winning brewery. They took home a bronze medal in year one for their Indian Canyon IPA at the 2014 San Diego International Beer Competition. No small feat considering San Diego’s reputation as the “hop head” capital of the USA. Next up was a bronze medal for the One Eleven Pale Ale at the 2014 Los Angeles International Beer Competition. More recently, they won a Silver Medal for their Tan Line Brown Ale at the 2015 San Diego International Beer Competition. Fast forward a year and several more medals, in 2016 they took home the big one - a Gold at the World Beer Cup for their Bourbon Barrel Aged Koffi Porter. So far in 2017, they've won a Gold Medal for their Heatwave Amber Ale and a Silver for Tan Line Brown Ale at the Best of Craft Beer Awards in Bend, OR. Founded by a true desert native and former home brewer, La Quinta Brewing Co. is authentic to the laid back desert lifestyle. You can find LQBC to be proud supporters of local events throughout the desert. Whether it's hosting fundraisers at the taproom or sponsoring community events, they strive to bring locals and desert visitors superior craft beer with a fun, resort style vibe uniquely found here in the desert. Thirsty yet? Their beer can be found in over 150 bars and restaurants in the desert area. Two of their beer styles (Poolside Blonde and Even Par 7.2 IPA) are sold in 16oz cans and their Koffi Porter is sold in 22oz bottles - available at retailers throughout the desert. The brewery and onsite taproom is located just north of Interstate 10 and west of Washington Street in Palm Desert. The 4,500 square foot facility is home to a 15 barrel brewhouse capable of producing over 5,000 barrels annually (equivalent to 10,000 full sized kegs). Food is not served, but patrons are welcome to bring their own food in, or take advantage of local delivery from neighboring restaurants. With the addition of the Old Town Taproom in Old Town La Quinta, LQBC fans now have another location to enjoy the desert's best craft beer. In addition to LQBC offerings, take advantage of a great selection of guest taps as well as wine and cider. Come in and "Taste the Sunshine!"
