Not too far from the cottage and extremely tasty Thai food! They never disappoint!
Banana Leaf Thai Cuisine
11880 San Pablo AveNot too far from the cottage and extremely tasty Thai food! They never disappoint!
This place serves unique amazing dishes, working with what’s in season. They are also known for their desserts. There’s a bar to sit and relax, right upon walking in. a bit on the pricier side but well worth it in my opinion.

Berkeley is known for this place! The best pizza period! If visiting Berkeley, I highly recommend stopping by and getting a slice on the go, or a whole pizza to take home. They usually have some live music going on by 5pm. Great place!

If you love Greek food, stop by Troy’s. They always hit the spot with their creamy hummus and combination skewer plates. Yummy baklava too!
