First time here! I reserved seating on waitlist which when I arrived only took 5 mins to be seated. This place has amazing food, portions, prices, and the servers and hostess gave top tier hospitality and customer service. They even sell merchandise and chow-chow, signature hot sauces, and preserves. I will be returning again. read more

Great service, great food and I loved the place. We ate out on the patio, on a picnic table, my kind of place. With the amount of people I was surprised how fast our food came out. Get the biscuits, they were outstanding. Thank You we will be back when we are in town. read more

The food is excellent every time I come. The service is always great as well. I love how quaint the place looks too.

Good was terrible the only thing that taste decent was the coffee. My sister came to town and wanted to try this place. It was a disaster. I don't recommend read more

Top notch. This place does not miss. The coffee is hot, fresh and never bitter. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food is top tier breakfast fare. If you come on the weekend, prepare to stand outside for awhile. Try to get it on a weekday so you can sit and enjoy it. read more

Consistently great food and coffee. This breakfast place is one of my favorite places to dine. I met some friends for breakfast. I ordered a Florentine opened face omelette made with a bed of pesto, topped w/ sautéed spinach, tomatoes & green onions, w/ turkey sausage & mozzarella cheese. Very good and flavorful. Came with cheese grits and a buttermilk biscuit. Love their biscuits! The coffee is very strong and flavorful. Always quite tasty! I had three cups. Can't wait to come back to eat more delicious food at Bro Junipers! read more

Brother Juniper's - San Diegan - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Consistently tasty, high quality, made-from-scratch breakfast or brunch here. Highly recommend the Greek omelet, biscuits, and their coffee.

This is without a doubt the best breakfast food I've ever had. I had the San Deigan with loaded cheese grits and a biscuit with gravy. Absolutely delicious. The only thing I'd have enjoyed more is a softer biscuit. Their's are kinda crunchy which seems to be a trend. I've had a couple that way recently. The guy with me had the pancake special with country ham. The pancake was massive. Came on its own platter which was larger than the other one. He took some of the ham home for his wife but the rest had magically disappeared. I'll be going back when I'm in the area. read more

This was my first Brother Juniper's in far too long. When I was a student at the University of Memphis, this place was of course in the breakfast/brunch rotation. Since moving away, it's been one of the Memphis restaurants I miss the most. As a very indecisive foodie, I was just as overwhelmed by all the delicious items on the menu as I remember being 10+ years ago (or however long it's been). After scouring over the menu, I settled on the Desperado open-faced omelet. The bed of three fluffy eggs was paired with a tasty avocado spread which added a creamy texture to each bite. The mountain of toppings included Tangy sautéed tomatoes, green onions, black beans, salsa, mozzarella cheese and sour cream. I added a little habanero hot sauce which elevated the dish to a spicier level (I like the heat). Each bite was packed with flavors that all played well together. I'm so glad I chose this one, although I know there are many other tasty items I'd try next time I go back. The cheese grits were just as delicious as I remember. The garlicky and cheesy notes make all other sides of grits seem inferior. The large, fluffy biscuit added a nice supplement of carbs. I highly recommend using Yelp's waitlist ahead of time to reduce your wait once. We had a relatively large party and only had to wait 15 minutes once we checked in. The service was great and the ambiance inside was just as cozy as I remember. I can't wait to go back -- hopefully soon. read more

Delicious food, friendly service. Had the San Diego open face omelette and one cinnamon roll pancake. Both were amazing, hot and quick.

Got the 2 piece French toast with a side of home fries, bacon, and an egg! Home fries were amazing along with the coffee and bacon. Wasn't too fond of the French toast; however, it did come with a cute personalized maple syrup container. Came in around 8:30 on a Wednesday morning, and it was very quiet! Started really picking up around 9am. Bought a cute souvenir mug, but for $25 dollars....... Overall service was great, just really lacks the ambiance. read more

Brother junipers is the best breakfast joint in Memphis. Food is always hot and delicious. Their selection is outstanding. I've been going here for probably 20+ years. read more

Our expectations were exceeded exponentially at our first visit to Brother Junipers. The lattes, coffee, and cinnamon pancakes were second to none where appetizers are concerned. The pancakes felt like a warm hug on a crisp fall morning. We completed our experience with a mouth watering fireman open face omelette. Fuego is an understatement. It was definitively divine. The service was top tier. Without naming specific names, the gentleman at the breakfast bar provided directions for site seeing Cooper-Young which also proved to be top tier. The best breakfast we have ever consumed. read more

Friendly staff, great service, attentive, but not over bearing, cute little mom and pop, brunch spot. My son and I enjoyed orange juice and a side of biscuits and gravy. He ordered the chorizo burrito and I had the desperado. Everything was out in a timely manner, and it was hot. Just how I like it!! My son said the chorizo burrito was really good. The desperado was good too. Could've used a little more salt but that's personal preference. I'd go back when visiting Memphis to try something else on the menu. read more

Yummy breakfast spot that is "no fuss." This place is like a humble diner but with a fun menu that boasts creative takes on classics. What we ordered that I recommend: Smoked Salmon Benedict, Kate's Fancy Fries, Bacon What we ordered that I don't recommend: Cinnamon Roll Pancakes (too sour), Juniper Latte (too too too sweet, no coffee flavor). The service was great. We had an attentive server who was super friendly. I don't know if we'll be back next time we're in town. But I wouldn't be mad if we were! read more

You definitely need to hit this place up when you are in the area! I had an omelette with chorizo, cheese, black beans, salsa and sour cream and it was delicious and that biscuit omg was amazing! My youngest got the kids plate and it came with a frisbee size pancake and there syrup was insanely good and came in these little mason jars. My eldest had there cinnamon roll pancakes those were the best. read more

Delicious place for breakfast! My husband and I both got open face omelets, that came with cheesy grits and a biscuit. I had the Pacific Northwest and it was so good...I would definitely get it again. Our almost two year old had a pancake and the cook came and talked to us and even brought him some blueberries! We were worried about a wait based on other reviews, but didn't have to wait at all! We arrived around 8:15 on a Wednesday. read more

Brother Juniper's was nothing short of an amazing breakfast! The full espresso bar was so cool, and the drinks were really yummy! I got the Juniper Latte with almond milk. The raspberry mocha was delicious too! The menu had a great selection of options. Our food came out so fast it surprised me, and our server was helpful and friendly. I'd never had grits before and she recommended their cheese grits, which were amazing! I highly recommend the cinnamon roll pancake. It was SO GOOD. Definitely check out this restaurant - you won't regret it! read more

The food (like the owner/management's attitude) is nasty. They dont treat black people fairly. Don't go. Very old looking inside.

The blueberry pancakes are one of the best items on there menu. Customer service never disappoints along with food never disappoints read more

Really enjoyed breakfast. Nice stop for those of you flying in at the airport. Parking in back is limited but we got a space. Nice porch area and green space out front. The servers were so nice. Food was fantastic. We got the juniper Benedict and gravy Benedict (both with cheese grits), and the loaded biscuits and chorizo sausage with wheat bread. They got their own hot pepper sauces and black pepper. Nice decor. My only gripe is that we were seated next to the swinging kitchen door when there seemed to be plenty of other seating in the restaurant. I didn't say anything but it actually was distracting and also you could feel the temperature difference when it swung open too. So I swapped seats and had my kid sit next to the door instead of me. Heh heh. Coffee comes in mugs with different shapes and logos. read more

$50 for breakfast? WORTH EVERY PENNY! We had the Monte Cristo with a side of cheese grits and Mellow Portabello omelette. Quality ingredients that were expertly prepared - living in Texas, for some reason, grits are hit or miss because they are either over or undercooked. They were PERFECT here. I guess that makes sense with a Memphis restaurant. The latte was good although the chai latte was a little too cinnamony but still overall the food and care and service were 5 star. Also - very generous portion sizes. Come hungry! This place must be insane on the weekends! read more

This is another hidden gem in Memphis. Locally run, well-managed, just off the University of Memphis campus (next to the Tiger bookstore). There is often a wait for seating, but so worth it. Today's feast included the open-faced Florentine omelet (homemade pesto, fresh shredded mozzarella, spinach, tomatoes), cheese grits and one of the City's best Southern biscuits. Service was prompt and friendly. Will be back! read more

I've literally been coming here since 2013. Consistent service, consistent quality, great food, great people. It's a quaint place with an intimate atmosphere for two or a family. There's really nothing more to say. You have to try it for yourself! read more

Visited on Thursday morning 3 ppl (2 adults and teen) I have been hearing about this place since I moved back home and was excited to try it out. Came with hubby and son and neither one of us was impressed at all. I think the hype is better than the pancakes. Very mediocre. read more

If you are tired of the status quo, and want well made food this is your spot. The customer service is always great. We order to go, and do not have to worry about our order being wrong. You get a lot of food for the prices. My favorite is the Potato with Gyro meat. I always order my egg over easy and add an extra. Nirvana. They are always busy, but always professional. I only wish they were open longer and on Mondays, but I'll take what I can. read more

Got off a plane at 9:00 a.m. starved and decided to try out this breakfast restaurant for the first time that had received over 1k great reviews. What a disappointment! We waited forever bc someone screwed up and called others before us. That aside, we ordered a Sandiegan omelette and the pancake special with blueberry pancake, bacon, potatoes and no egg. My food arrived with just bacon and potatoes on the plate. The bacon was hard and the potatoes were cold and old! Instant case of indigestion! They finally brought 1 large pancake filled with blueberry compote. I was looking forward to fresh blueberries baked in. The pancake was sugary and I was looking forward to breakfast not dessert. It came with a dollop of maple syrup in a jar and if we wanted more to cover the large pancake, that's an extra 1.75. Also a turnoff. My husband said his omelette was okay. All the female staff were dressed like future handmaids. Ugh! When I asked our friendly waiter Kyle about the restaurant theme/history he proudly explained that it started in California based on Brother Juniper feeding the hungry for less and then was sold in early 2000's and is still owned by the same family. I think they lost the concept of feeding for less bc I thought it was overpriced. I'm glad for their success but I don't know why this restaurant has received such great reviews. I should have just waited until I got home bc I would have had a delicious and healthy breakfast for less! read more

Went to this location while visiting Memphis. Looking online, this is one of the top rated spots to grab breakfast in Memphis. My party had to wait about 30 minutes as they were busy, but we just walked around and visited shops in the meantime, so it went by quickly. The staff is prompt and friendly. The portion sizes are large, so you will not leave hungry! The prices are fair for the amount of food you get. They have coffee, as well! read more
