Here are a few places in our neighborhood that we enjoy going to. They are all within walking distance.
Excellent German food! And no, that isn’t a contradiction. They use high quality ingredients and have a good selection of beers.

The coffee here is decent, the food options are more extensive than Highwire and it's open earlier. They sometimes have live music in the evenings and often show soccer games on the TVs.

Food scene

There are so many great places to get food in Berkeley! Here is a short list of a few of our favorites.
Cheeseboard pizza is amazing! They make one kind of vegetarian pizza every day and it changes daily. Check out their website to see the pizza of the day. They also have amazing buffalo milk soft serve and house made ginger cookies. There is outdoor seating and live music every day for both lunch and dinner. Don't be intimidated by the line. It moves quickly!

I think this is the best Indian food in Berkeley. It's a little more expensive and fancier than some of the other Indian restaurants, but worth it.

Many people in Berkeley feel that these are the best French pastries that they have ever had. The hours are limited and the line can be long, but it is definitely worth it. They do sometimes sell out of some items before they close so get there early for the best selection.

Sightseeing

Cesar Chavez Park is a large outdoor space that has beautiful views of the bay. It's a great place to go at sunrise or sunset!

旅行者へのアドバイス

交通アクセス

Take the ferry to San Francisco!

Driving to San Francisco can be stressful (traffic!) and can get very expensive with parking. BART is often crowded, always noisy, and runs underground (no views). Consider taking the ferry from Jack London Square instead of driving or taking BART. The parking at the ferry is free if you get it validated and it's fun to see San Francisco from the water as you approach the city. If you don't have a car, you can easily take the 72R bus.
