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 recommendedHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jun 12, 2016
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!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Samela H.Norwood, Australia1022718Nov 10, 2017
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.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mat O.Australia261226100Jun 18, 2016
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.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Gurpreet S.Adelaide, Adelaide, Australia2012488Mar 21, 2016
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.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - S A.Adelaide, Australia03Jul 15, 2021
Love the theme; looks and feels like a traditional French family restaurant. Seating is a little tight (just like Paris!). Had very good breakfast and excellent service.

What the hell just happened?
Croque monsieur was ham, cheese, bit of tomato relish on toasted Turkish bread...
Chai was bland, no water on the table, and the staff were rather impolite.
I had such a good experience when I was in Adelaide 7 months ago, that I was coming back as soon as I could. Disappointed with today's experience.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Mar 3, 2015Previous reviewReviews on here led me to Hey Jupiter and i can see why.
Staff were very friendly and quick and there's a comfortable atmosphere unlike a lot of cafes.
I ordered the pork belly as it seemed to be their specialty. It was pretty good. Coffee was good but needed a bit more adjustment.
Defiantly coming back next time I'm in Adelaide so i can sample more of their menu. - Laurice D.Morphett Vale, Australia202534Aug 22, 2014
Hey Jupiter is defiantly not like any other breakfast, brunch and lunch café.
Firstly, the owner is French. Such a lovely accent.
* Design and presentation of the café is so different in a unique way, perfect for Adelaide. With bright coloured seats outside and mirrors with gold framing covering the left side of the wall as you walk in. Gives the café a vintage look but then again a unique look in an Adelaide way.
* Serving alcohol in drinks and food for breakfast, brunch and lunch. Interesting!
* Large selection of meals to choose from.
* Large portion size, there should be a sign of guarantee that you will not leave with an empty stomach!
* Service was fast & sweet.
And sandwiches are AMAZING!
I mean when I think about ordering a sandwich outside of home, I think well what's the point really? But arriving at Hey Jupiter and reading the reviews about their sandwiches, made me grab one anyway. I grabbed the Poached Free Range Chicken Breast which should have gave myself some time to breath whilst stuffing it down my mouth! A great combination of flavours and amazing sauces, was impress with the outcome and portion size.
I've visited Hey Jupiter twice already and I can only think I'm going to be visiting much more. Thank you for a delicious sandwich experience Jupiter, see you soon!Helpful 6Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Juliana K.Perth, Australia166112599033May 9, 2014
This sweet cafe really makes you feel like you're on holiday in Paris.
I had the continental breakfast which is perfect for indecisive people who cant decide between a sweet or savoury breakfast. It consisted of two slices of bread, one boiled egg, ham, cheese and a croissant and jams.
Everyone else at my table got sandwiches, and were all very happy with their choices.
The wait on food was a little long, but they are a small cafe.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Chloe R.Adelaide, Australia9094872091Aug 31, 2012First to Review
SWOON - anyone who asks you in a French accent "what you would like today," or "can I get you a croissant?" has me made. I may not have even been hungry when I went into Hey Jupiter but by the end I couldn't resist the accent and just had to eat!
This place is a far cry from Tori Amos' depressing song lyrics and it will leave you buzzing on a high from their 5 Senses coffee while giving you a warm soothed belly from their foodgasmic menu of Au Matin Calmé pastries and homemade, fresh ciabatta sandwiches.
Do not walk down Ebenezer Place without stopping into this green little hole in the wall. It has been perfectly decked out with a vintage counter and pastry cabinet, big blackboard menus full of delicious treats from breakfast and lunch items and a wall full of mirrors that makes you feel like you've walked into an Alice and Wonderland world.
My highlight of the morning was trying their Pumpkin Falafel and Spinach Ciabatta with Goats Cheese - lightly toasted. Who knew falafels came in Pumpkin flavour - have I found the holy grail?Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0
