Cheeky’s

Cool nearly 24-hour coffee shop in Palm springs. Great anytime-of-the-day coffee spot and meal arena. Genuinely liked their coffee bacon, even though it was my first time. Everything was nice, although they could get more hands to meet up with the demands of their large clientele. 

The food was really tasty and neither too sweet nor too bland, nor was it too spicy, it was just the perfect fit for me. An excellent coffee spot.
