The Importance of Being... Ernest
Before he was Don the Beachcomber, the architect of tiki escapism, he was Ernest Gantt.
A world traveler, a rum smuggler (allegedly), and a man who believed every drink should feel like a vacation.
This very space once housed one of his original Don the Beachcomber locations, which opened here in 1953 and the tiki torches still burning on the roof are the very same ones that lit Palm Springs nights all those years ago.
Today, Ernest Coffee | Market keeps his name buzzing by day…and Bootlegger Tiki, the bar tucked just behind us, keeps his spirit pouring after dark.
Come for the coffee. Stay for the cocktails.
(Ernest would’ve approved.)
