A Berkeley institution. The hot dogs are good and reasonably priced ($3 for a top dog, $3.25 for most others). Restaurant is full of libertarian musings. Just watching their grilling process is fun

This is a newly renovated (summer 2014) cafe with natural light, places to plug in your laptop or read the paper and hang out for a morning. The word "hipster" comes to mind. Espresso drinks are good
