Shop at the crossroads of swap |
1937 Ashby Avenue Berkeley, CA 94703 United States +1 510 644 0744 |
Known throughout the Bay Area by swap meet aficionados as perhaps the best, most colorful, and most diverse of the local flea markets, the Ashby Flea is not to be missed by seekers of the great buy, the gently used, and the just plain unusual. Like most fleas, items run the gamut from clothing, furniture, toys, and bricabrac. But you will also find handmade local crafts, artwork, organic produce, and imports from around the world especially if the African mask people are there. Admission and parking are free, the atmosphere is laid-back, friendly, and very Berkeley. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Huge selection |
2020 Oregon Street Berkeley, CA 94703 United States +1 510 843 6929 http://www.berkeleybowl.com/ |
Once a small and funky co-op store where you could find locally grown and organic produce, this store moved into a former Safeway building and expanded its offerings to appeal to everyone from the granola to the yuppie. You will still find bushels of fresh and organic produce, a wine selection to rival most specialty wine shops, and a complete bakery, butcher and fish market. It specializes in organic items, but there are many national and conventional brands as well. Bulk buying for grains and nuts and pasta is second to none, and the cheese section is first-rate.

East Bay Gourmet |
1782 4th Street Berkeley, CA 94710 United States +1 510 525 1440 http://www.caferouge.net |
Cafe Rouge, located in the heart of Berkeley's hoppin' 4th Street shopping district, is an East Bay institution. Foodies flock from far and wide for treats as simple as a cheeseburger and as complex as a Mediterranean-style lamb shank entree. Menu items are rotated in and out of circulation every couple weeks, so expect to see new and exciting things every time you visit. Shellfish fans marvel at the massive oyster selection (officially celebrated at the weekly Oyster Wednesday party). Cafe Rouge is also well known for the quality of its meats, all of which come from the finest local and regional producers, and many of which are available for takeaway at the on-site Meat Market (where you'll also find all manner of cured meats, pates, terrines and sausages). See website for menus, wine lists and more. Review © 2007, Wcities |
