Crema's Take
“Juniper is a San Francisco gem where award-winning croissants are baked fresh in-house daily, from classics to creative savory varieties like the Cubano with pork and kimchi bacon danish that keep regulars coming back. The espresso drinks are thoughtfully crafted with a focus on quality, and the bright, welcoming atmosphere makes it equally perfect for a solo coffee moment or lingering with family and friends. Whether you're hunting for that perfect flaky pastry or settling in with a well-made latte, this spot has earned its devoted following for doing both with genuine care.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.
