Always enjoy the Berkeley. I miss the old location but the new location will do just fine. Alex is always friendly and helpful. Bartenders were super busy as it was Hopscotch, but they still managed good service. Mostly usually there for music and drinks... so no food review, but the food always looks great and everybody says it's great. Good drink prices. Good selection of beer.

First visit. Stopped in for lunch. Had a burger and sweet potato fries. The burger was good, but the sweet potatoes fries were the BEST!!! Delightfully crunchy and delicious. I will return just for these fries. 😋

Cool laid back place for open mic, friendly staff and David was great open mic host. A good variety of performers.

Awesome little dive bar, very quaint atmosphere but wow the sandwiches were killer. Stellar local vibes, everyone was chill and friendly. Upset I've been living right next to it all this time without stopping by. Fried banana peppers ruled, way better than fried pickles

Great little hole in the wall place. Had been many years since last visit, and although there had been changes such as closing off the side room and bringing in the vintage bar from Sadlack's, the grill and overall feel has definitely aged well. Really enjoyed the 'back stage' covered patio area out back; the musical trio this evening were amazing. The cafe staff and patrons were friendly, food tasty with good portions and fair prices, and over all had a really enjoyable time. Highly recommend.
