I’ve read that the following are good breakfast places, I’m hoping someone who’s been can confirm:
Rick's on palm canyon
Elmer's Pancake House
Don & Sweet Sue's Café
Louise's Pantry

Well, we had two breakfasts in the Palm Springs area.
One was at Don and Sweet Sue’s Café in Cathedral City.
I had the chorizo, eggs and cheese burritos, while the wife had poached eggs over corned beef hash.
First the positive, the staff is one of the most friendly I’ve seen and there were many regulars dining here when we went who the staff all knew on a first name basis. The bacon was cooked fresh, not the typical reheated kind at most breakfast joints.
Now for the negative news, corned beef hash was from a can and therefore was the normal salty junk, the salsa served w/my burritos was Heinz brand and was served in the plastic individual serving container like the jellies are and finally, the guacamole was the guacamole from a tube (that weird green color and the strange flavor that tastes nothing like real guac).
This certainly makes for an overall negative dining experience IMO.

The second place we dined was at Elmer’s. Elmer’s is a chain that originated in OR if I’m not mistaken.
Wife had an incredible breakfast of potato pancakes. These were not the latkes that your mother made! These were VERY light pancakes that contained potato and onion, quite a delight. Wife and I devoured them and almost ordered a second helping.
I had the Prime time skillet. A breakfast skillet of prime rib, onions, potatoes, red pepper with cheddar scrambled eggs on top. A nice breakfast strictly because of the prime rib but I’ve had better skillets.
Service was very attentive.
There are multiple locations of Elmer’s in the Palm Spring / Palm Desert area. We dined at the 1030 E. Palm Canyon location. Phone 760.327.8419
