This was the watering hole back in my undergrad days, so coming back with a fellow alum hit me right in the nostalgia. Jupiter's been a Berkeley staple for 30 years and it's easy to see why. The two-level beer garden with the firepit and string lights is the whole vibe, and the church-pew-and-tin interior (it's an old livery stable) gives it character you can't fake. Came on a busy night, which is Jupiter's default state, and the service was still great. Ordered a personal pizza. Their wood-fired stuff is solid, not life-changing, but exactly what you want next to a house brew. Decent food, great beer, unbeatable atmosphere. It's a two-second walk from the Downtown Berkeley BART, so there's really no excuse. Student, alum, or just passing through, post up in the beer garden and stay a while. Some things don't need to change, and this is one of them. read more

We haven't been here in sometime. We decided to give it a try and I'm glad we did. There's a large selection of pizzas and sandwiches. Also, there's a ton of beers to choose from as well. We split a pizza and a salad and it was a lot of food. Sitting on the back patio is the best. Even better if you can sit close to the fountain on the shade side! Very chill, very lovely area to chat and eat. Our server was great. he was very friendly and open to any questions we had. Totally BARTable as well. If you plan to BART in, the closest stop is Downtown Berkeley. There's also plenty of garage parking nearby. read more

For starters the staff there were very kind which is always great! They also had great prices and such a beautiful environment the outdoor seating was so scenic and a lot bigger than I thought!! The pizza combo I got was only $8 but had a HUGE slice that tasted great and came with soda and chips!! My friend got the avocado toast the avocado was creamy and buttery which contrasted the crispness of the bread so it was just amazing!! I would recommend coming here if you're in the area!! If you want a longer review for the pizza you can watch my review TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8gwqhWc/ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXvQ2pev3Be/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== read more

Always a great time here. When I find myself in Berkeley I find myself ordering a cold craft brew and enjoying a pie or two. Great space, great staff, solid wood burning oven producing some good pizza and the beer list is solid. No better spot when it's sunny outside to hang in the outdoor patio. read more

Jupiters will always be the ideal 'let's go eat outdoors' spot in Berkeley for me. If going on a weekend when there's live music, even better. This restaurant is filled with so much nostalgia and memories over the years, I'm always just happy with the opportunity to share a meal in the space with friends. Quick and friendly service, the Xanthia as my forever go-to (sliced potatoes, bacon, garlic, ricotta, mozzarella, rosemary, and thyme), and a fresh list of beers on-tap, a sure-fire win. The ranch also, no notes. They serve personal pizza sizes which I actually just learned too, which is nice touch. Outside of pizza, they also serve salads, shareable apps, sandwiches, dessert, and NA options. Great for a group, date night, or solo excursion. Parking can be tough, but not impossible, with a covered garage close-by. read more

Today, I ate here for the first time. I stumbled upon it and surprisingly there was no wait. I absolutely loved the pizza! The service was quick. You can order by QR code or by in person server. The quality really stands out. One of my favorite things is that they offer half-and-half pizzas. It's a great way to try different flavors with the best portion sizes. Highly recommend if you're looking for great pizza and a chill dining experience. read more

Although Jupiter has been a staple of downtown Berkeley for over 30 years and we are Bay Area natives, we had our first visit today. We walked in around 12:30 pm and loved that we could seat ourselves. There were several outdoor tables and we sat at one by the fountain. They have QR and paper copies of the menu. Ordering can be done online or with a server. We shared the spinach and artichoke dip and the Callisto pizza. Though the dip was tasty, we were a little surprised that there was more bread than dip. Also, we thought the focaccia didn't have enough herbs/flavor that distinguished itself as focaccia. The Callisto pizza has tomatoes, delicata squash, beets, roasted carrots and kale. We liked the color combination of the veggies and taste. Service was good but it did take a little while to get the check. I'd come back but would get a pizza and skip the spinach & artichoke dip. read more

We came to Jupiter on a Saturday night to meet up with some friends, and thankfully we had a reservation because the place was popping! There was a live band playing out on the back patio, which is open seating and had such a fun, lively vibe. We were seated inside. Ordering is done through a QR code, but there are still staff walking around to help. A waiter brought us water and checked in regularly, and there's even a cute little button on the menu you can press if you need assistance, which I thought was a nice touch. Jupiter brews their own beer, but they also offer wine and other beverages. I especially loved that they have smaller pours in addition to pints--perfect if you want to try a variety of their beers. We mainly came for the pizza because they offer gluten-free crust (a huge plus for us). My wife ordered the Gaia and really enjoyed it. I went with the Eutopia, which has meat galore, and it was absolutely delicious. We also saw wings and cookies coming out to other tables that looked amazing. We ended up hanging out and chatting for about two hours because we were having such a great time. Jupiter is a fantastic spot to relax, enjoy some drinks, and grab some really good pizza. 10/10 recommend! read more

The food has gone way downhill!! Spinach artichoke dip was so dry and chalky as to be almost inedible. It was served with stale focaccia. The pizza smelled and tasted cheap, with a crust far inferior to our previous pizzas here. They didn't bring out Parmesan and we couldn't flag down the waitress to get it. The service was (as ever) inconsistent and the waitress was clearly untrained--she constantly made single trips in and out of the dining room without carrying items each way or checking on nearby tables, and her inch-long fingernails were inappropriate and unhygienic. I honestly don't know what management is even doing here. read more

First things first the food here is good, the pizza is made well and it's fresh, I also had the beet salad which was also made well, with mixed greens, shaved fennel,carrots, orange, goat cheese and walnuts. I personally had the Gaia pizza, which came with roasted chicken, spinach, mushrooms, ricotta and mozzarella. It was baked well and the crust was nice and crispy outside. My issue with this place was the customer service. Pretty non existent and we had a party of 8, the Asian lady with blonde hair seemed bothered by something the moment we sat down, I wasn't the only one in the group that noticed this. I ordered black coffee and water that took forever to come out even though all drinks from the bar and sodas came out quickly, she had to be reminded and then brought me a cold coffee and still forgot my bottled water. She didn't come by to check on us and every time we had to call her over she just seemed bothered and uninterested. It was my first time here and probably my last, there are plenty of options for pizza around the bay area that are very welcoming. We still tipped her very well but we won't be coming back. As a small business owner myself customer service is everything and this place missed the mark for me unfortunately. Great outdoor seating by the way. read more

- interior: lovely. cute and aesthetic, not what i expected! - food: i really enjoyed the bacon potato pizza. lowkey, the pizza needed more salt for flavor though... especially the white ricotta chicken pizza. - service: initially greeted warmly. however our server was not the friendliest. maybe it just wasn't her day. we were here to celebrate a birthday, she seemed irritated to help get a lighter/ a knife to cut the cookies. I was here to visit the bay - if i were back i'd prolly try somewhere else. if you're visiting, sure, try it out. read more

Came here with my wife and dog early into lunch service and was delighted to know that dogs are welcomed! We ended up getting a half-xanthio and half-juno pizza and had a hard time picking which one was our favorite as they were both great! We also had the beet salad with a side of chicken for our dog to munch which I'm sure she was very happy about. Side note: the chicken was prepared in advanced so it does have pepper on it so if your dog is uncomfortable with spices you might want to order something else for them. Our waitress noticed that our dog was eating but didn't have a drink so without even asking she came with a cup of water for her to drink out of. Unfortunately I wasn't able to catch the name of the waitress but I hope this is enough to share that the staff is very considerate and cares for our fur-families. Being outdoors, it was peaceful and clean which I'm sure would eventually become more lively once more people come in. With good food, comes good company :) read more

Deliciously chewy wood-fired pizza, with a beautiful patio area (with a fireplace and warmers throughout!), and expansive selection of house and guest beers: truly what more can you ask for?

Fantastic atmosphere on a beautiful night! We loved the food, and the band made the meal even better. The house salad was flavorful, with a mix of greens, kale, seeds, and a balsamic apple vinaigrette. The Galileo pizza was the headliner with artichokes, tomato, mushrooms, spinach, fontina, garlic, Asiago, and a drizzle of olive oil. Both dishes came in large portions, making for a great meal all around. read more

We found a nice spot for a weekday early-afternoon al-fresco lunch, the 30-year-old Jupiter brewhouse (Oct 2025). It was a gorgeous day, with clear skies, a fair temperature, and a light variable breeze, and we basked st our umbrella-ed table. From their 30-or-so craft beers on tap, we had a lightly-sweet citrusy amber sour, and a velvet-textured nitro stout with espresso notes. We kept it lighter with substantial salads: a Mediterranean of romaine, rich soft artichokes, roasted red peppers and purple-y kalamatas smoldering with flavor, sprinkled with feta, herbed vinaigrette, and crunchy croutons. And a chunky-beet salad with wild-like greens and sweet fennel, orange pieces and carrot shreds, bright candied walnuts, and their vinaigrette. These both had so much flavor. Their hearty fresh sourdough made these into satisfying midday meals. read more

I was in Berkeley for an event set up. Lunch time came and Yelp said to go to Jupiter, so I did. Open seating, inside or out. I chose out. You can order via QR code or wait staff. I chose staff. I ordered (I forgot the name ) a sausage, red onion & fresh basil pizza and ice tea. Pizza was delish. Thin crust. Definitely not soggy. Ice tea was refreshing. I haven't been here in decades but glad yelp told me to get my booty over here! read more

TL;DR: great food, drinks, and vibes. Meh service. This Bay Area native took almost 3 decades before she went to the Greek Theatre. Better late than never, right? Going to Jupiter before contributed to that being an amazing night but almost made us late! I got off BART and was the first of our motley crew to get to Jupiter. We didn't have a reservation but there were open tables. They didn't seat us even when we were all there and people who came up to the desk after us kept getting seated. What gives? There was some miscommunication going on. Service continued to be slow and they didn't refill our waters. Free soda refills? Forget it! They didn't notice and barely came upstairs for us to say something. Besides that--drinks were flowing, pizza and salad and appetizers were large and good. My Mediterranean salad (small) was the perfect size and came with quite a bit of chicken. Everyone was happy! They have good pizzas (but I'd just had pizza the night before.) The outdoor space in the back is marvelous but busy. The upstairs area gave off steam punk vibes and was cozy. Clientele included families, college students, young people, and old! Something for everyone. read more

Came here on a Saturday night and it was easy to get seated! It wasn't too busy, and they had live music and fire pits going. It was a vibe!! The servers are super helpful with making recommendations, and the bartenders are friendly and chatty. Service was quick and executed well! The food was even better! I tried their jalapeno, pineapple, and pepperoni pizza and had a side of olives. I never had hot olives before, so it was a twist but they were delicious! The pizza was amazing, a little spicier than I expected, but worth it! The only downside was that since seating is outside, I am not sure how controllable their pests/rat situation is maintained. It definitely ruined my appetite seeing a large rat, bigger than my foot.. Hopefully they can get that situation under control! read more

My friend and I were looking for a nice mimosa place. After a quick yelp search, we found this place. They didn't have bottomless mimosas but they had mimosa carafe so we decided to give it a shot. As soon as we reached, the wait time was minimal and we were seated right away. They had both indoor and outdoor seating. However, we wanted some fresh air so decided to sit in the outdoor patio area - it was beautiful! We got the mimosa carafe and a split pizza - with a root vegetable topping on one side and chicken on the other side. Glad they did split pizzas! The mimosa was great - it comes with orange juice. We repeated the mimosa carafe and it was great. The pizza itself was big enough for the two of us. However, it was a bit bland for our liking, although super healthy. All in all, we still loved the mimosa carafe and enjoyed the ambiance. Definitely recommend this place for the drinks. read more

Loved it! Didn't love the wait for a table, but loved the service and the food. Just have to hang in there, a table will eventually free up. I highly recommend the non alcoholic pina colada as a drink, as well as the spinach and artichoke dip. We also got a pizza with half Cassiopeia and half Eutropia. Both sides were super good and that's why it's so crowded. Fun collegiate crowd with probably double the amount of parents since it was parent's weekend, but just a really good vibe. read more

Went to Jupiter in Berkeley and grabbed a seat outside. The patio was big and open, and I ended up in a little alcove under a red canopy (so all my pics came out with this red tint, haha). Ordering was super easy with the QR code on the table, and the food came out quick, which was great since I had just finished hitting balls at Tilden. I got a hazy IPA, the Petaluma wings with honey sriracha, and the Andromeda pizza. Beer was cold, hoppy, and really hit the spot on a warm afternoon. The pizza was super cheesy and satisfying -- definitely a good pick if you're into cheese. The wings were juicy, tender, and tossing them in honey sriracha was the move. All in all, solid place for good beer and food. I'll be back for sure. read more

If you haven't been to Jupiter, you're missing out! One of the older "hip" places on Shattuck to grab elevated bar fare with a very respectable beer and wine selection. The food is also fantastic; particularly their wood fired pizza, savory appetizers, sandwiches and salads. The experience gets even better with the atmosphere. The courtyard/beer garden is one of the best in the East Bay. The vibes are off the chart and they really have some of the best table service in town. (Word to the wise) Once you grab a table, hang on to it as the cleanup crew will quickly clear it and seat the next party in line!!! read more

Price was definitely not worth the food provided. We ordered the garlic bread, the ribs, and the Xanthia pizza, but it was not worth the price provided.... The ribs tasted too salty? Not sure why but they tasted similar to Chilis, the garlic bread was alright, and the xanthia pizza was a let down. There wasn't enough seasoning. Ambiance inside was loud, but outside it was quieter but really cold. I liked the ability to order online or in person. read more

Great service when we came by for lunch! Walk in and seat yourself, we sat outside on the patio. We were a party of 4. We ordered wings to share for an appetizer. They were tasty! Three of us had their house made lemonades, we also ordered one coffee. We split a large pizza half Triton, half Cassiopeia. For dessert we had their chocolate chip cookie served in a cast iron skillet topped a scoop of mascarpone! It was warm and very delicious. Our check totaled $117.74 with 20% tip and tax. read more

Really nice outdoor seating area. Very comfortable with a firepit although the space could use a good power wash. We started with the wings and the artichoke dip. The wings were amazing, super tender and really flavorful. The artichoke dip was solid as well. The caprese salad was very good with large pieces of mozzarella and fresh tomatoes. We ordered the Eutopia pizza and it was very good with a great crust. Service was good and I would come back to try more items from the menu. read more

Jupiter is unfortunately a very fitting name - you would think the waiters traveled to Jupiter to grab the food. I hate to rate a place with such delicious food so low but the service was awful. I really enjoyed the Eutropia pizza, the cheesy garlic bread, and bruschetta. The ranch was really light and had a perfect refreshing flavor! Jupiter also has a beautiful outdoor space. They have open seating and QR codes to order food directly to the table you choose. Super green and picturesque - perfect for pics! Sadly, my two recent visits were coupled with terrible service. My first time, we ordered three appetizers and a salad, all of which did not come out. Our main dish came out before our sides and appetizers. We were optimistic that the rest of our food would come out but ended up eating the pizza and waiting an additional 20 minutes before we had to flag down a different waitress (our original waitress was nowhere to be found the entire time we ate). When the second waitress finally brought out our appetizers, they were already cold. The original waitress did not check on us or offer refills until far into us eating our appetizers as dessert. My second Jupiter visit was notably worse. After searching for a table for some time and not finding one, the server sarcastically wished me "good luck" with finding one. When a table eventually opened up, my group ended up sitting there with their dirty dishes for an additional 20 minutes before anyone came to clear it. I'm sure you could guess what happened next.... We ended up waiting over an hour for our food to come out. If I had not checked in with my waitress, the food would have never come out. Apparently our order had not been put in and we were waiting for nothing. Aside from this, the servers and waiters just had a bit of a sassiness or attitude to them. If you are willing to overlook the poor service, you may be in for a delicious meal and chill outdoor vibe, but to me, it is not worth your time. read more

I've never been here before and my honey said let's stop here after our movie. We went in & it's a seat yourself. This place is huge. So we picked a spot outside near the band. We ordered the June 2025 pizza of the month & it was delicious! Plus we topped off the night with the peach bread pudding. Very good - needed more sauce & whip cream. Ice tea isn't cold or served with much ice. I think it's room temperature tea ha! Oddly the menu says sandwiches are only available until 4pm. Which was too bad - I wanted to try the meatball Sando During summer I really recommend sitting outside. Service was ok - our server was nice but we definitely had to request refills etc. PRO TIP There's a QR code that you can scan & order your food faster. Or you can wait for a server. We didn't see the QR code until well after ordering. I look forward to returning with my honey for more live music & food. read more

Stopped by Jupiter yesterday on a recommendation from a friend, and I'm glad I did. Even though I work at a pizza joint myself, I can say without hesitation--this place gets it right. I ordered the Mercury personal pizza (about 9 inches), and it was fire. The fresh basil, sliced tomatoes, and the balance of garlic, cheese, and sauce really brought it together. The flavors were on point--fresh, bold, and just the right amount of richness without being heavy. I paired it with one of their German-style pilsners, which was crisp and clean. A great match for the pizza. Even though I'm not usually a beer guy, this one hit smooth. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere--with its patio seating, string lights, and cozy vibe--makes it a perfect spot to chill solo or bring a few friends. You can tell they care about quality from the food to the service. I'm not a hardcore Yelper, but when a place delivers like this, it deserves the shoutout. Solid pizza, good beer, good people, good vibes. I'll be back. read more

I always love Jupiter and have always ordered their bruschetta and either Sauvignon blanc or hazy ipa on tap.

Came here for lunch with my lab. It was SO GOOD. We shared the hummus, the spinach dip, the wings, the beet salad, the Caesar salad, and 5 different pizzas. Loved all of the appetizers. As for the pizza, I especially liked the chicken and garlic one (it had whole garlic cloves on it!) but they were all fantastic. As for ambiance, it was my first time sitting on their patio and it was such a lovely day. The decor is so cute and the air smelled like pizza. read more

While walking and shopping along Shattuck last summer, I stumbled upon Jupiter. The place was packed and full of energy, but we couldn't wait for a table at the time. Fast forward to my wife's birthday--I knew what she really wanted was to spend quality time with our son, who had just started his freshman year at UC Berkeley as a Chemical Engineering major. Knowing his schedule was packed, I made reservations at Jupiter to keep things simple and close to campus. Our family loves pizza in all its forms--New York, Italian, even Indian-inspired--so we ordered four different pizzas to share and sample. My wife is an amazing cook, and my kids have grown up spoiled with homemade meals and adventurous flavors, so expectations were high. The bruschetta was different from what we're used to but still enjoyable. The BBQ pork riblets were good, though we all agreed: Mom's version still wins. That said, we had no complaints--everything was flavorful and thoughtfully prepared. We sat outside in the walled brick courtyard, which felt cozy thanks to the overhead heaters. Our table was on an elevated section near the acoustic band. The music added to the atmosphere without overpowering our conversation, which we appreciated. I enjoyed some excellent craft beer with my craft pizza, while the kids explored a fun variety of non-alcoholic drinks from the beverage menu. It all made for a relaxed, memorable evening. We're already looking forward to our next visit--to try more of the menu and sample more of their rotating beer selection. Jupiter is definitely on our list of go-to spots when visiting Berkeley. read more
