About us
Juniper is a love letter to Indian food — the flavours we grew up with, cooked with today's best produce and care.
How it began
Our chef grew up in her grandmother's kitchen in Kochi, learning that good food starts at the market and is finished with patience. After years cooking in restaurants in London and Singapore, she came home to open the kind of place she always wanted to eat in: warm, unpretentious and obsessed with flavour.
Today Juniper works directly with farmers, fishermen and spice growers across India. We cook over charcoal and wood, bake every bread to order and make our own pickles, chutneys and ice creams.
The Juniper family
Three ideas guide everything that leaves our kitchen.
We cook what is at its best right now, so the menu changes with the markets and the weather.
We know our farmers and fishermen by name and pay fairly for the very best they grow and catch.
Good food tastes better with good company. We want every guest to feel looked after.
“I want every plate to taste like a memory — familiar and comforting, but with a surprise or two along the way.”
