About

About Juniper

Juniper opened on Clairmont Avenue South in Birmingham's Avondale neighborhood as one of Alabama's most gin-focused dining destinations. The bar's name nods to the juniper berry — the defining botanical of gin — and the concept is built around an ever-rotating selection of artisan and international gins served in the classic Spanish Gin Tonica style: two ounces of quality gin in a chilled goblet, paired with a curated tonic and garnished with matching botanicals and spices.

Beyond the bar program, Juniper's kitchen turns out a menu that spans continents without losing coherence. Dishes like the Curry Chicken Roll with yogurt marinade and pistachio chili salsa, the Bodega Burger loaded with pickled peppers and mac sauce, and the Steak & Potatoes with honey-and-juniper cured NY Strip reflect a kitchen that draws from global pantries while staying grounded in quality local sourcing. Vegetarian and vegan diners are well served, with options like the Hearts of Palm croquettes, the edamame hummus, and the vegan Juniper Burger.

Weekend brunch has become a neighborhood institution, with saffron loaf anchoring both the Bombay Toast and the Avocado Toast, alongside crowd-pleasing plates like the B.E.C. Sammy and Steak & Eggs. The brunch cocktail menu mirrors the dinner program's inventiveness, offering originals like the Rosemary Reviver and the Clairmont Iced Coffee alongside a $5 mimosa that remains one of Birmingham's best brunch bargains.
