August 29, 2020 Phylicia Berquist

Find out what Cafe restaurants to try in Berkeley. The counter-culture, flower power center of the 60s, bohemian Berkeley has evolved into a culinary and cultural travel scene. Shift into low gear and people-watch along quirky Telegraph Avenue while checking out the bookstores and cafes. After strolling through the UC Berkeley campus, the Berkeley Rose Garden and the Downtown Arts District, head into the hills for an outdoor adventure in Tilden Park or cruise down to the waterfront park, where the San Francisco skyline sparkles across the bay.

You can order everything vegan including burgers and burritos. The best time to visit this place is their happy hour. All appetizer half price. They serve in deliciously large portions. Honestly, we visited this place twice when we're in Berkeley and close to campus. One my best vegan experience. I highly recommend this vegan restaurant.

Friendly staff and excellent food mediocre service. This place is very kid friendly. I loved all those little signage they have welcoming all kind of people irrespective of origin and color. I May go back to this place during my next Berkeley visit. I'm not Very happy with their refill policy, guests must refill your own coffee and water cup. Food is good and price is at upper medium range.

We went here for brunch/lunch while visiting Berkeley. The food was good, and the outdoor patio was pet friendly. Definitely had to jockey for position on the patio to get a table and, more important, shade! Order food inside at the counter and then it is delivered to your table. The inside was empty - no surprise on a beautiful June Sunday. The drink options were yummy . . . try out one of the teas or lemonades.

Crepevine

Interesting place from the outside, and we both love crepes. But, they are not crepes, just thin pancakes with whatever filling is on the menu. While the crepe came warm, the filling was cold in places.Portions are big because they include fired potatoes and a (wilted) salad. But without the tastiness of a true crepe, it was just an ordinary meal.

This a great café serving breakfast and lunch. Breakfast entrees include a selection of egg benedict dishes, omelets, scramblers, pancakes and French toast. The Irish Benedict of fresh corned beef, bell peppers, onion and tomato was delicious. The lunch menu adds salads and sandwiches.. The restaurant is airy and bright and there are also a few tables outside. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. There are several parking lots nearby

So this evening, I get a notification from TripAdvisor that I needed to 'resubmit my review of Rick and Anne's in Berkeley' because it doesn't seem to be the right place. Here's what I saw... "Dear Amitava Michael K, We are requesting that you resubmit your review of Rick & Ann's because we believe it was submitted to the wrong business."And here's my original review - "Expect to have socially progressive (read clean cut) panhandlers totting causes or non-profits hitting you up outside while you wait (or at the edge of the patio calling to you as you eat), tie-dyed or dreadlock-sporting staff serving your meals, and that communal, crowded eating style environment you’ll find in that stereotypical progressive Berkeley atmosphere, but the food isn’t bad - not great, but certainly not bad. Among our meals, sone where tasty, but some had minor issues; the pancakes tasted a bit cornbready, the scones were dryer than expected, but the margarita pizza was tasty and filling. The fair trade coffee was a bit bitter, but acceptable. If you want a true taste of Berkeley, come eat here, but if you’re after a more value-added meal, stay a bit further away from the University area - btw, parking here is a major pain!"So it seems that my initial review may have rubbed Rick or Ann the wrong way, and somehow they had enough clout with TripAdvisor that my review was removed - Wow! Is this real? Well, I'll just say that MY REVIEW IS ACCURATE, and for the record, I will now add some photos to prove that we actually ate at this place, on the patio, and there was no mistakes in my original review.If people are to expect honesty and no corporate 'massaging' of reviews, than do not challenge your voluntary (yes, remember, people like me do not review a cent for putting time and effort into writing reviews for TripAdvisor) reviewers unless you have some concrete evidence. If the images included are indeed not at Rick and Ann's, and if the patio does not include their business model, then I'll eat my words - but if you do recognize the business, admit that your customers on that day were 'less' than impressed with your fare. And above all else, be honest and ethical even if you do not agree with your customers.
