Essentials

Is this the best place to buy produce on the planet? Great cafe too. People may call this a supermarket, but there's a long history to the 'Bowl'. It all started in a Bowling Alley.

Classic breakfast place. Go early, less waiting. Go later, on a weekend and be ready for a long wait. Sadly, the owner Bette died recently--but the place is run by her loving staff and continues to put out great food. A classic West Berkeley locale.

The classic. People come to Berkeley just to eat here. Many a restaurant around the East Bay has had a chef spend time here. This is truly a dining experience.

Parks & Nature

Want some fresh breeze? Salty air? Head across Highway 80 toward the bay. There's walking paths, lots of grass, and good kite flying. Near the bay--bring a windbreaker or layers. See the Golden Gate. If the Berkeley pier is open, that's worth a look see, just on the other side of the Berkeley Marina.

Lot's of trails in Tilden. The merry go round is a good one if you have young children or if you just like merry go rounds. If you want to hike--try Wildcat Gorge or get on the Sea View trail for spectacular views of the entire Bay Area.
