Hey Jupiter - Adelaide

Excellent!! Based on some web reviews and a good feeling when we walked past JUNIPER we booked and enjoyed a lovely meal here Great menu with plenty of options Impressive wine list and decent wine by the glass Warm friendly service and they noted our tight timetable to get to the airport Well worth more visits Highly recommended

Cassoulet was a great way to start the day. Ham hock, duck confit and pulled pork lovingly baked together and topped with goats curd. Rich and wonderful. My breakfast Bloody Mary was fresh and pungent, one of the best I've had. It was served in a chick carafe with a side glass of ice. Eat the house bread, eat the butter. Fresh and warm, welcoming on a winters morning. Rustic French. C'est baguette!

It seems so tiny and yet it packs 'em in. We sat outside on a pleasant day. Tiny there, too, if one is talking the size of table. But it seemed to work. The service was cheerful and snappy and the passing life in Ebenezer Place was lively, lots of people seeming to know each other. There was a lot of meeting and greeting around the tiny restaurant entrance. Waiters politely dodged the impediments. Our snails came with proper escargot tongs in the most exquisite garlic and herb butter. The toasty French bread was a bit too crisp to soak up the butter but it was just as well. My friend had Croque Monsieur which was rich and wicked, bechamel sauce and cheese and a fried egg on top . He simply wolfed it down. My boned and butterflied trout with green beans took longer to eat and every morsel was a joy. The trout was nicely charcoal-seared on the skin side and very lightly cooked on top. The tastes and textures sang together in a light buttery sauce from the beans which were not too firm but just right. It was best trout I have ever had and I am still purring with pleasure.

Wow!! What an amazing cafe!!! The space is a little small, but once seated it does not feel cramped. Has a slight hipster feel, yet the wait staff were very attentive, not over bearing. The coffee was the best I had in Adelaide (although I only had a few in Adelaide) but the Bloody Mary was the best I've had (excluding the ones I make, obviously). The balancing of flavours was something you'd expect in a high end cocktail bar, not a cafe. Well done guys! I had the baked eggs (they take about 15 min as the menu states, so if you're in a hurry, try something else). I chose the pancetta instead of the smoked salmon. Again, the balancing of flavours was superb. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars (and this is personal preference) is my eggs were cooked all the way through. I would have loved to stick my fork in and have that running goodness of the yolks filter down throughout the dish. I tried some of my mates cassoulet, and it too was amazing. If this was my local, I'd be there every weekend.

A bit overrated. Nice for a quick bite, good breakfast options and gourmet style sandwiches which you can have as salads if you fancy. Indoor and outdoor seating. Service was a bit disinterested... Maybe as it was the end of the day. Would come back but only for a quick coffee stop.
