Originally located next to the Plaza theater in downtown Palm Springs back in the 50s, Louise's pantry relocated to La Quinta after the original location closed in the 1990s. Louise's pantry is probably the most popular breakfast spot around so there may be a wait. If it's too busy you can check out chula next door which is also excellent.
