Juniper Cafe and Bistro - Edmonton, Alberta

Pretty good Avocado Eggs Benedict. Busy place where I had to make a Reservation. Just disappointed that Alberta On The Plate festival wasn't available as it was only Lunch meals and on Sundays they served breakfast all day. I inquired when making the reservation on the phone if it would ... still be available and the server on the phone confirmed yes. I wished that was more clear when booking. Edit: Went back today and had a reservation. Short-staffed and busy. Getting seated took over 20 mins even with a reservation. Food took some time, but the meal came out before drinks. They did end up not charging for the drinks which I thought was appropriate. Had the scone for the first time and it was alright. It tasted like it was made with whole wheat, which was not advertised or mentioned. Hopefully, the next visit will be better for the timing of everything. Read more

Super cute and locally owned! Our server Sabrina was fabulous and helped us with our indecisiveness. The restaurant is super clean and even has a child play area (with a gate!). Note: This strip mall is being torn down in August so go well you can!!!!

Decided to try this cozy brunch spot close to Bonnie Doon and we were in love with it! Ordered their hot chocolate with whipped cream and it was YUM! We got the Juniper's baby benny and a vegetarian version of it(substitute with mushroom). When the dishes arrive we thought the ... portion looked smaller than expected but it was just perfect! To top it off we also got the warm house made scone with honey lavender butter as a starter. They usually have their scone of the day be it blueberry or raspberry scone. Since I'm not really a fan of berries they suggested the cheese and dill scone! Which was delicious! All in all the ambience, food and the staff service was superb! Thanks to Kenny for making our visit memorable! Also Juniper tends to get busier during brunch hours so we suggest you make a reservation before heading there Read more

Had the opportunity to try Jupiter this weekend and it certainly was an experience – I have heard good things, and my co-brunchists have frequented previously. Overall the experience was fine, the food was fine, I had the steak hash which was OK but nothing to write home about. The ... over all ambiance was, fine – the one standout, and not in the best way – was the server, he was defiantly carrying himself like he owned the place (apparently he doesn’t which raises more questions about his super casual attitude and outfit) and was… rather disinterestedly arrogant – he spent more time quizzing each person ordering a coffee if they wanted a small, medium, or large than he ever did topping off said coffee later during our meal.

Quaint, cozy, they keep shawls on the chairs for those cold days. Good menu, well priced. Coffee is well done, mixed. They took a large coffee and split between two, instead of scheming and charging for two. WiFi available (please, be courteous, no streaming!!). Loved it.
