A really delicious breakfast spot. I've tried several things on their menu and it's all delicious. If you order potatoes, make sure to get the sour cream on the side....yum!

This isn't super close to my listing, but if I had just a few days in Berkeley/Oakland this would be a place I would visit. An entire restaurant devoted to the best mac and cheese you've ever tasted!

A Berkeley icon. They serve one type of pizza per day, so look up the menu online to see if it sounds good to you. Always delicious and reasonably priced. Located in the "Gourmet Ghetto" area.

One of my top recommendations. Pedro's favorite tri-tip sandwich is one of the best things I've ever tasted. Tri-tip, pineapple, cilantro sauce...so amazing.

Drinks & Nightlife

A nice dive-y type of bar within walking distance of the apartment. They have a lovely outdoor patio area and serve food outside. I highly recommend the grilled cheese!

Super fun venue! Speciality drink is the greyhound - vodka & grapefruit. They squeeze the grapefruit right in front of you! You'll have to take BART to 19th street station to get here from my place.

This place is a mad house, but the produce selection is awesome. I am also OBSESSED with their in-house made honey roasted peanut butter. Seriously. Try it.
