Small, unfancy place. Great breakfast menu, sort of better than average standard. I had a bacon egg & cheese biscuit and loaded breakfast potatoes. All very good. Also had a juniper latte, which was basically a caramel latte with whipped cream and syrup swirl. Very tasty but it could have been hotter. I personally would request an extra shot of espresso next time. My friend ordered a plate of scrambled eggs, bacon. Potatoes, and French toast. All good. She ordered a cinnamon latte which was also very good. Good amount of good, good tasting, reasonable prices. What more can you ask for? I'd recommend this place.

I have never had anything but an exceptional experience here. I love it all. Great ambiance. Great service. Friendly staff. Exceptional food. I love the decor. I love the theme. I love the mismatched coffee cups. Large menu. Everything is great. They make most things fresh, in house. They have their own maple syrup, hot sauce, bread.... The only drawbacks are that it can be a little cramped and a little loud. I do not like cramped nor loud but it's not enough to keep me away from here.

P3. Potato with Chorizo Sausage

Very good breakfast place located on (right next to???) and he U of M campus. It's no great secret how good the place is so you're most likely gonna have some amount of wait, whether it's waiting for a table to open or just them working through the queue (that was the wordle the other day) of people also heading in for some tasty breakfast. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. The restaurant itself is made up of like 2nor 3 different rooms of tables. The bathrooms are (well the men's room anyway I can't speak to the ladies room) is a weird set up. I can't describe it but it does lend itself to logjams! Oh man bad comparison I didn't mean it like that. Food is excellent. Very very good! I had steak Benedict and grits. Other items ordered at our table were a chorizo burrito, pancakes, and a potato bowl. They have a couple different house branded hot sauces on the table and also their own branded syrup. They have a fun mix of coffee cups, everyone gets a different one. As it's mid December they've got the Christmas ones out.

Pancake Special w Cinnamon Roll pancake (+$1)

Brother Junipers is a well oiled machine. Expect a wait, especially on the weekends, but the service is fast & friendly. The food is cooked to order & always right. This time, I forgot to tell my waitress I wanted cheese grits so I was disappointed when my food arrived and they were plain... to my surprise, even the standard grits are great! (But the cheese grits are phenomenal). Not to mention, my entire meal was right at $20. You can't beat the price, the service, or the food quality here

We were moving my son to Mud Island to start medical school and this is the place everyone told us we had to go try! It did not disappoint! Very vintage, homey, and welcoming. Everybody very nice, accommodating, and attentive.... All the food was great, the potatoes hit it out of the park! First class ticket to Flavortown! If you are a buttermilk biscuit aficionado, you will be happy... Great smoky bacon that was crispy without ordering it crispy..... Even though we ordered full breakfasts, we wanted to try the pancake. As expected, because it was eight dollars for a single pancake, it was as big as the plate. Again, super flavorful, similar to Cracker Barrel... I love that they are fully cooked too.. see the photo... Overall, a great experience and we will return each time we visit my son ...

Pancake breakfast with cinnamon roll Pancake Special

This restaurant was so cute and the food was delicious. I had the cinnamon roll pancake platter and it was excellent.

2 Piece Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

My husband and I came here after the place we planned to go to wasn't accepting debit cards that morning. Best unexpected detour because this place was so good! It's a bit packed and was very busy when we went, but we were seated right away. Our food came out fast, our lattes finally came out after our food. The latte was okay. Nothing special. The omelette was very cheesy. Good flavor. The cinnamon roll pancake was huge and delicious! Really didn't even need syrup on it. I personally wasn't a fan of the cheese grits. So much cheese in them. We will definitely be back!

Veggie Delight Omelet
Ellie F.

For me, this was a fine breakfast place, but it wasn't anything special. I had the omelette which was good, not mind-blowing. My husband got the chorizo burrito and was very disappointed that it had about 2 oz of meat and was mostly made of cheese and sour cream. My favorite part of the meal was the crispy and well-seasoned home fries. I also enjoyed the iced latte that I got! The service was good and the ambiance was cozy. If I lived closer, this might be a convenient breakfast spot, but it didn't excite me.

Florentine with cheese grits and a biscuit
Courtney P.

Before hitting the road and heading out of Memphis for a day trip, we made our way to Brother Juniper's for breakfast. Located near the University of Memphis, this is definitely a staple breakfast spot. To start, I ordered the juniper latte with oat milk. It was subtly sweet and the perfect amount of caffeine. For my order, I ordered the Florentine, which was an open faced omelette with a side of cheese grits. The omelette was fresh and flavorful and absolutely filling! The cheese grits were creamy and decadent. And the biscuit was buttery, flaky perfection. Both my father and my husband enjoyed their respective dishes - biscuits and gravy and a spicy open faced omelette whose name I now forget.

Brother Juniper's is good for breakfast, offering what is now the commonplace mix of healthy (avocado toast) with the less-so. Just on the basis of visiting Memphis for a couple of days, their "best breakfast" slogan seems accurate--to the extent that we ate there two days in a row. Biscuits were amazingly moist and flaky, the best I've had in a while. Just these are worth the stop. There are variety of egg/potato dishes available. I tried the San Diegan all out "open face omelet", but found that there were too many competing elements in the dish. Next time I would opt for one of the simpler potato dishes. Note for those with an aversion or allergy to egg: BJ's offers a range of potato-based dishes with nary a fleck of egg involved. Second time around I went for the Mushroom Portobello Mellow. This was a perfect creation with the exactly right ratio of egg to stuffs, the egg perfectly cooked in omelet fashion, and sides of potato and that aforementioned biscuit holding up their side of the plate. Coffee was hot and relatively strong (relative to the standards of my hometown down at the end of I-55). Service was prompt and friendly, with coffee and water refills coming around regularly.

Florentine omelette!
Karen P.

There is always a wait and they always get you in faster than expected! I always bring my out of town guests here because the cozy atmosphere, consistently good food and attentive service are a sure thing. I find the prices are worth it. So happy!

High Point Terrace

Michelin-Quality Food in the Most Unexpected Setting…read more **Rating: ** Bryant's Breakfast is a study in contrasts, and that's exactly what makes it extraordinary. Walk through the door and you'll find yourself in what can only be described as a high school cafeteria aesthetic--fluorescent lighting, simple tables, no-frills decor. But order your food, and you'll quickly realize you've stumbled onto something truly special. ## The Food: Breakfast Perfection The biscuits alone are worth the visit. These aren't your average biscuits--they're fluffy, buttery masterpieces that practically melt in your mouth. Each one arrives at your table with layers that pull apart perfectly, golden-brown on top, impossibly tender inside. The thick-cut bacon strikes that elusive balance between crispy and meaty, with just the right amount of char on the edges. The sausage is clearly made with care, well-seasoned and flavorful without being greasy. And the eggs? Cooked exactly as you order them, every single time. Whether you want them over-easy with that perfect runny yolk or scrambled to creamy perfection, they deliver. ## The Secret Sauce: Obsessive Consistency!! Here's what sets Bryant's apart from every other breakfast spot in town: their almost obsessive commitment to consistency. Visit on a Wed at 7 AM or a Saturday at 1PM, and you'll get the exact same quality. The bacon is always thick-cut to the same specification. The biscuits are always equally fluffy. The eggs are always cooked with the same precision. This isn't luck--this is a team that has perfected their craft and refuses to let standards slip. ## Service That Rivals Fine Dining Despite the cafeteria setting, the service operates at a level you'd expect from a five-star Michelin restaurant. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely seems to care about your experience. Orders arrive promptly. Coffee cups are refilled before you realize they're empty. Special requests are handled with grace and efficiency. ## The No-Friction Experience Everything about Bryants is designed to be effortless. Ordering is straightforward. Seating is quick. The menu is clear and well-organized. Payment is smooth. There are no unnecessary complications, no pretentious service rituals, no waiting around wondering if your server forgot about you. You walk in, you order phenomenal food, you eat, and you leave satisfied. Simple. ## Exceptional Value!!

Got there early enough, so did not have to stand outside in line too long. Order at the counter and…read moreif done in, you go find a table. There are usually 2 servers who will bring your order to you. If you get coffee, you pour your own upon entering the order line. Got the biscuits and gravy breakfast which includes 2 eggs cooked to order and a choice of meat. Wife got the scrambler. Overall good food. Service is good. Noise level is moderate but tolerable.

I like the location and I like the service, but I can't eat hardly anything there, the reason is…read morebecause I still use vegetable oil in the french fries and other products, vegetable oil causes heart attacks, it causes inflammation in your system, with holistic healing going rampant in America, most people really are starting to turn their heads away from eating vegetable oil, processed sugars and artificial ingredients not to mention preservatives. I don't think people really would mind paying a little bit more to be healthy, the money they would save not going to the doctor or having a heart attacks and paying hospital bills would be a blessing, why can't they make french fries with beef tallow, the only reason it's expensive is because it's healthy, isn't it time this game ends, I mean really we're in our end times everybody's going nuts on the planet, everybody is being told to divide and go against each other, but then when you listen to mainstream media, and politicians in Washington, that's what happens. Why can't you just eat healthy, I'm going to live as healthy as I can as well as my family and most of all my friends, everyone I know stop eating it places like this because of the bad food ingredients, everyone I know now even my family eat organic foods, grass-fed beef, real sugar, the point is if it's natural it's good for you if it's not, it fights you like a serious bad enemy. I love eating the BLTs but every time I order one, I only do it once a month, and Lord knows I never touch the french fries because they have seed oils in them. Isn't time for a change!
