Love the hot chocolate. The Italian sodas are also delicious, and come in all kinds of interesting flavors, like lavender and sage.
First of all, the staff is very welcoming and will answer any question. I've had the 7 star specialty brew with medium sugar and cream and it's simply perfect.
OMG. The breakfast (what it is called) is so good. All the dishes and sides pair so well.
Try the Morning Salad - Poached egg, diced pastrami on a bed of mixed greens. It's a nice low carb alternative to the Deli Hash.
Try the real Italian pastries; ask if you don't know what they are! You won't be sorry!
Arrive before the opening bell and chat up the friendly farmers for the best stuff. Year round, rain or shine.
Order the sliders "medium" - they taste better that way. If you're a medium, though, you already knew that!
Avo Kale on Collard Leaf - just the way my mother Adele made if back in The Bronx! Not quite a Madeleine, but you get the idea
This is one of the best lookout points in the Bay Area. Ask the elevator operator what goes on/went on on all the floors you are passing...you might find it fascinating!
A beautiful place to hang out and watch the sunset, or just people watch. It can be fun the walk or run (on University) from the University all the way down the pier.
Look out for cool kites! This is a great place for people watching, and has amazing views of SF and the Golden Gate Bridge.
After you're done at the Apple Store, turn right and visit Builders Booksource, one of my favorite Architectural Book stores on West Coast. Tell George Ira says hi and you learned about it on 4Square
in theatres 1 & 2 you can go up the stairs next to the auditorium doors and there are lovesac couches. sit in the 2nd row of couches for a good view and convenient leg rests
Our favorite Berkeley Mexican restaurant. Their mole poblano is the best we've had this side of Puebla, Mexico
Nachos are massive, way too much for 2 people. Really delicious though, I thought everything was super flavorful. I wished I had 2 stomaches so I could eat it all
The curved glass walls make the space bright and airy. They also reflect conversations from one table to another, so be sure to only say nice things. Read more.
Love the curry. And the Thai iced tea. Make sure to exchange your real money for coins before ordering!
Make sure you get their signature potato puffs! Outdoor and limited seating, so it's good for a group of at most five.
Pink peppercorn. If you ever get the chance. Also, affogato or their root beer float. Damn.
If you're younger than 30, your tickets are half off. Get them cheaper while you still can.
A downtown Berkeley fixture since the 1990s. While their house beers are good, try the guest beers or "beers of interest" – and be rewarded.
Get a baked potato with vegan chili for your starter or maybe just a snack.
I usually get apps here, I highly recommend the wings, pizza twists and nachos. Obviously the beer is excellent
One of the best beer places in the Bay Area. If you're looking for a drink. It's probably here.
