Standbys

Places Jen, Malcolm and friends visit regularly and are moderately priced.

BARTable/Walkable assumes no more than 1 mile walk from home or BART station. Many places not BARTable are still accessible by Public Transit, just not without transfers or buses. A Clipper Card can help immensely, since it's a universal payment method for most area transit agencies.

Delivery is also often negotiable. Services like Caviar can deliver from some restaurants that do not otherwise do delivery.

Markets and Farmer's Markets

Berkeley Farmers' Market - Center Street and MLK Jr. Way - Saturdays, 10a - 3p: The region's farmers' bounties, both certified organic and conventional. Regulars also include pasta, cheese, fish, ice cream, sometimes oysters, juices, and olive oils. Some prepared food vending as well.
Adeline Farmers' Market - Adeline and 63rd Street - Tuesdays, 2p - 6: 30p : Similar stuff to Berkeley Farmers' Market.
Market Hall - Rockridge BART - Every day, 9a - 8p: Upscale, high end market with produce, fish, butcher, bakery, cheese and prepared foods.
Ferry Building Marketplace - Market and Embarcadero - Indoor market: Every day, 10a - 7p : Food specialties and restaurants. Our favorites are Recchuiti Chocolates, Boccalone Meats, Imperial Tea Court, Mijita, and Cowgirl Creamer. Shout outs also to Humphry Slocombe ice cream and Blue Bottle coffee.
Ferry Plaza Farmers Market - Market and Embarcadero - Outdoor market: Tuesday & Thursday, 10a - 2p, Saturday, 8a - 2p : The Saturday market is particularly luxuriant and wraps around the east side of the building to the parking lot int he back. Tuesday and Thursday focuses primarily on the front of the Ferry building and has far fewer stalls and sellers.
Berkeley Bowl - Oregon and Shattuck - Every day, 9a - 8p: The original Berkeley Bowl, smaller than the one in West Berkeley, but produce is plentiful, some of it organic. Bulk foods are good. It's a good, eco-friendly supermarket and grocery with good offerings in cheese and dairy, butcher, fish, prepared food, and, of course, produce. Alice Waters of Chez Panisse used to shop here, among other culinary luminaries.
Whole Foods - Telegraph and Ashby - Every day, 8a - 10p: Whole Foods is a controversial grocery and supermarket (the founder has non-progressive ideas on labor and benefits). Many have chosen to boycott it, but if that doesn't concern you, they stock similar stuff to Berkeley Bowl. A little higher end/more expensive. But quality is also high and it appeals to many customers. Their hours are slightly longer on either end than Berkeley Bowl's.
Country Cheese Coffee Market - San Pablo near University - Monday - Saturday, 9a - 7p: Many fine foods, teas, cheeses, crackers, preserves, meat, etc. Some difficult to find items. A charming shop and a local chain, with locations also in Kensington and North Berkeley.
Ashby Supermarket - Ashby and MLK Jr. Way - Monday - Saturday, 8a - 10p, Sunday, 8a - 9p: One of our local corner stores, a short walk. There's a soda geek who stocks various hard to find sodas in the back. Tony, our neighbor across the street prefers their sandwiches. They have a light and essential stock of household, pantry and snack items, including some ice creams.
Temescal Produce Market - 51st and Telegraph - Every day, 9a - 9p: Another local market, small but reasonably walkable. A good variety of stock.
Tokyo Fish Market - San Pablo and Gilman - Monday - Saturday, 9a - 6p: Not really walkable, but stocks Japanese essentials like Furikake, various fresh noodles, sashimi cuts of fish, various specialty snacks and frozen foods, and sake and sochu.
Koreana Plaza Market - Telegraph and 24th - Every day, 7a - 10p: For Korean specialties, also nearby The Good Hop, one of our Worth a Special Visit entries.
Bonita Fish Market - University and Bonita - Monday - Saturday, 10a - 7p, Sunday, 10a - 6p: Fresh, yummy seafoods. We've gotten crab and clams there, both quite worth it.

Worth A Special Trip

Bakery

Tartine (Bakery): Known for extremely well researched artisinal sourdough bread as well as other baked goods. A real crowd-pleaser. You will always encounter a queue. Get there at 4:30 for FRESH bread. Everything is delicious!

Butcher

Belcampo (Butcher): A specialty butcher. They raise their own animals from heritage breeds on organic feed, using very skilled, high-touch agricultural methods. Meat is ridiculously expensive and ridiculously good. Some locations are just butchers. Others are also restaurants. Sometimes there are service issues - the focus for the whole company is on the meat.
Local Butcher (Butcher): Similar ethics to Belcampo, but they don't raise their own slaughter animals. Can source all kinds of unpopular cuts, organs and other kinds of butchery not popular with mainstream markets. They also sell pet food, bone broths, expensive, local, organic eggs, cured meats, pickles, have a light deli counter, and also sell delicious prepared sandwiches.

Specialties

Gregoire (French Carryout): One location is in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto neighborhood. High end French carryout food. The kitchen is small and the lines can be long, so be prepared to queue. The Gourmet Ghetto location also has limited seating available, but it's unmanaged, so be prepared to be assertive or to sit somewhere else.
Cheese Board Collective (Pizza, Breads, Cheeses): In the Gourmet Ghetto, The Cheese Board Collective was recently listed number 2 on Yelp's top 100 places to eat in the US. So go try their pizza!
Bakesale Betty (Fried Chicken Sandwich and spicy cole slaw): These folks are so popular that the best way to try out their fried chicken sandwich with spicy cole slaw is to walk, drive, bus, or teleport to their location, get in the huge-ass line, and buy a sandwich or two. They are so popular they can't even take same-day phone orders.

Ice Cream

We are ice cream enthusiasts. That's the nice way to put it. But for sure, use this list to tour the various possibilities. Or, you know, as a regular list for places to visit in rotation and enjoy as much as you can.

Bi-Rite Creamery (Ice Creams and Desserts): Associated with the high-end San Francisco grocery store chain, Bi-Rite, the creamery focuses on ice creams, baked goods, sundaes and ice cream novelties (like ice cream sandwiches, which are ice cream sandwiched by cookies). Flavors use high quality ingredients and are seasonally sourced, so expect to get something delicious!
Mitchell's Ice Cream (Ice Creams and Desserts): Less high end but still tasty, Mitchell's focuses on tropical flavors like Avocado, Buko, and Lucuma, as well as serving some Filipino desserts like Halo Halo.
Humphry Slocombe (Ice Creams and Dessert): High end, tasty, innovative flavors. Known for Sundaes served with shrub/vinegar sauces, the Secret Breakfast flavor, and other good recipes. Located both in The Mission (Harrison and 24th) and in the Ferry Building.
Fenton's Creamery and Restaurant (Ice Creams, Breakfast, Lunch, and Cakes): Fenton's has been featured in some Pixar movies, as well as other films about or involving the Bay Area. It's known for its huge sundaes, late hours, and long lines. Visiting is an experience, but Fenton's is not known for high fashion ice cream.
Ici Ice Cream (Ice Creams): Close by, and known for high quality, tasty, and uncommon flavors.
Lush Gelato (Ice Cream, Gelato): Located in San Francisco (Polk), Oakland's Piedmont Ave, and in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto, known for a variety of gelato flavors, many of them using local ingredients.
Smitten (Ice Cream): Known for using liquid nitrogen to superfreeze the cream or the sorbet mixture. The texture of the ice cream is silky and the texture of the sorbet is fluffy. If you have never had liquid nitrogen ice cream, you might be in for a treat.
Cream (Ice cream sandwiches): Known for the ice cream sandwiches, made of cookies and ice cream, they also make other stuff. The ice cream is decent and the sandwiches are very tasty. Not a super-premium experience, but if you're doing the ice cream tour, it's worth a visit.
Chocolatier Blue Parlor (Ice creams, sorbets, frozen treats): This company specializes in high-end, airbrushed shiny filled chocolate candies, but the parlor also carries their high end gelato. It's a favorite for dairy loving locals like us.

Tea & Coffee

Sightglass Coffee
Philz
Imperial Tea Court

Booze (Alcohol) Tourism

Note that St. George's Distillery, Faction Brewing, and Rock Wall are all basically right next to each other, each in a former hangar facing the airstrip of the former Alameda Naval Air Station, which, notably, was sometimes used by the MythBusters television show to do various mayhem filled vehicular experiments.

The Good Hop Bottle Shop (Beer, Cider, Lambics, on top and in the bottle/can): We know the owner! A huge variety of good, hoppy (and non-hoppy) beers both on tap and in the coolers. You can sit at the bar and drink or take the bottles and cans back home with you for later enjoyment.
St George's Distillery Tour: They will take very good care of you on the tour and during the tasting. A good time will be had by all.
Faction Brewing Tasting Room (Beer): Another tourable booze purveyor located on Alameda (the island).
Rock Wall Wine Company Tasting Room: Rock Wall is a local winery, based in Alameda. They keep their club members very happy!
Yelp has a comprehensive list of breweries in the area.

 Places Jen, Malcolm and friends visit regularly and are moderately priced.
+BARTable/Walkable assumes no more than 1 mile walk from home or BART station. Many places not BARTable are still accessible by Public Transit, just not without transfers or buses. A [https://www.clippercard.com/ClipperWeb/index.do Clipper Card] can help immensely, since it's a universal payment method for most area transit agencies.
+Delivery is also often negotiable. Services like [https://www.trycaviar.com/ Caviar] can deliver from some restaurants that do not otherwise do delivery.

 == Markets and Farmer's Markets ==
-* Berkeley Farmer's Market
+;[http://ecologycenter.org/fm/ Berkeley Farmers' Market] - Center Street and MLK Jr. Way - Saturdays, 10a - 3p : The region's farmers' bounties, both certified organic and conventional. Regulars also include pasta, cheese, fish, ice cream, sometimes oysters, juices, and olive oils. Some prepared food vending as well.
-* Adeline Farmer's Market
+;[http://ecologycenter.org/fm/ Adeline Farmers' Market] - Adeline and 63rd Street - Tuesdays, 2p - 6:30p : Similar stuff to Berkeley Farmers' Market.
-* Market Hall
+;[http://www.rockridgemarkethall.com/ Market Hall] - Rockridge BART - Every day, 9a - 8p : Upscale, high end market with produce, fish, butcher, bakery, cheese and prepared foods.
-* Ferry Building
+;[http://www.ferrybuildingmarketplace.com/ Ferry Building Marketplace] - Market and Embarcadero - Indoor market: Every day, 10a - 7p : Food specialties and restaurants. Our favorites are Recchuiti Chocolates, Boccalone Meats, Imperial Tea Court, Mijita, and Cowgirl Creamer. Shout outs also to Humphry Slocombe ice cream and Blue Bottle coffee.
-* Berkeley Bowl
+;[http://www.ferrybuildingmarketplace.com/farmers_market.php Ferry Plaza Farmers Market] - Market and Embarcadero - Outdoor market: Tuesday & Thursday, 10a - 2p, Saturday, 8a - 2p : The Saturday market is particularly luxuriant and wraps around the east side of the building to the parking lot int he back. Tuesday and Thursday focuses primarily on the front of the Ferry building and has far fewer stalls and sellers.
-* Whole Foods
+;[http://www.berkeleybowl.com/ Berkeley Bowl] - Oregon and Shattuck - Every day, 9a - 8p : The original Berkeley Bowl, smaller than the one in West Berkeley, but produce is plentiful, some of it organic. Bulk foods are good. It's a good, eco-friendly supermarket and grocery with good offerings in cheese and dairy, butcher, fish, prepared food, and, of course, produce. Alice Waters of Chez Panisse used to shop here, among other culinary luminaries.
-* Country Cheese Coffee Market (San Pablo)
+;[http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/stores/berkeley Whole Foods] - Telegraph and Ashby - Every day, 8a - 10p : Whole Foods is a controversial grocery and supermarket (the founder has non-progressive ideas on labor and benefits). Many have chosen to boycott it, but if that doesn't concern you, they stock similar stuff to Berkeley Bowl. A little higher end/more expensive. But quality is also high and it appeals to many customers. Their hours are slightly longer on either end than Berkeley Bowl's.
-* Corner store at Ashby and MLK
+;[http://www.countrycheesecoffee.com/ Country Cheese Coffee Market] - San Pablo near University - Monday - Saturday, 9a - 7p : Many fine foods, teas, cheeses, crackers, preserves, meat, etc. Some difficult to find items. A charming shop and a local chain, with locations also in Kensington and North Berkeley.
-* Produce Store in Temescal
+;Ashby Supermarket - Ashby and MLK Jr. Way - Monday - Saturday, 8a - 10p, Sunday, 8a - 9p : One of our local corner stores, a short walk. There's a soda geek who stocks various hard to find sodas in the back. Tony, our neighbor across the street prefers their sandwiches. They have a light and essential stock of household, pantry and snack items, including some ice creams.
+;[http://www.temescalproducemarket.com/ Temescal Produce Market] - 51st and Telegraph - Every day, 9a - 9p : Another local market, small but reasonably walkable. A good variety of stock.
+;[http://www.tokyofish.net/ Tokyo Fish Market] - San Pablo and Gilman - Monday - Saturday, 9a - 6p : Not really walkable, but stocks Japanese essentials like Furikake, various fresh noodles, sashimi cuts of fish, various specialty snacks and frozen foods, and sake and sochu.
+;[http://www.koreanaplaza.com/ Koreana Plaza Market] - Telegraph and 24th - Every day, 7a - 10p : For Korean specialties, also nearby The Good Hop, one of our Worth a Special Visit entries.
+;[http://bonitafishmarket.com/ Bonita Fish Market] - University and Bonita - Monday - Saturday, 10a - 7p, Sunday, 10a - 6p : Fresh, yummy seafoods. We've gotten crab and clams there, both quite worth it.

-* Tartine - Get there at 4:30 for FRESH bread - Everything is delicious!
+=== Bakery ===
-* Belcampo - For meats
+;[http://www.tartinebakery.com/ Tartine] (Bakery) : Known for extremely well researched artisinal sourdough bread as well as other baked goods. A real crowd-pleaser. You will always encounter a queue. Get there at 4:30 for FRESH bread. Everything is delicious!
-* Local Butcher
-* Gregoire
+=== Butcher ===
-* Bi-Rite Dairy
+;[http://www.belcampo.com/ Belcampo] (Butcher) : A specialty butcher. They raise their own animals from heritage breeds on organic feed, using very skilled, high-touch agricultural methods. Meat is ridiculously expensive and ridiculously good. Some locations are just butchers. Others are also restaurants. Sometimes there are service issues - the focus for the whole company is on the meat.
-* Mitchell's Ice Cream
+;[http://thelocalbutchershop.com/ Local Butcher] (Butcher) :  Similar ethics to Belcampo, but they don't raise their own slaughter animals. Can source all kinds of unpopular cuts, organs and other kinds of butchery not popular with mainstream markets. They also sell pet food, bone broths, expensive, local, organic eggs, cured meats, pickles, have a light deli counter, and also sell delicious prepared sandwiches.
+=== Specialties ===
+;[http://www.gregoirerestaurant.com/ Gregoire] (French Carryout) : One location is in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto neighborhood. High end French carryout food. The kitchen is small and the lines can be long, so be prepared to queue. The Gourmet Ghetto location also has limited seating available, but it's unmanaged, so be prepared to be assertive or to sit somewhere else.
+;[http://cheeseboardcollective.coop/ Cheese Board Collective] (Pizza, Breads, Cheeses) : In the Gourmet Ghetto, The Cheese Board Collective was recently [http://www.sfgate.com/living/article/Yelp-top-100-places-eat-Cheeseboard-Gary-Danko-6823746.php?cmpid=fb-mobile listed number 2] on Yelp's top 100 places to eat in the US. So go try their pizza!
+;[http://www.bakesalebetty.com/ Bakesale Betty] (Fried Chicken Sandwich and spicy cole slaw) : These folks are so popular that the best way to try out their fried chicken sandwich with spicy cole slaw is to walk, drive, bus, or teleport to their location, get in the huge-ass line, and buy a sandwich or two. They are so popular they can't even take same-day phone orders.
+=== Ice Cream ===
+We are ice cream enthusiasts. That's the nice way to put it. But for sure, use this list to tour the various possibilities. Or, you know, as a regular list for places to visit in rotation and enjoy as much as you can.
+;[http://biritecreamery.com/ Bi-Rite Creamery] (Ice Creams and Desserts) : Associated with the high-end San Francisco grocery store chain, Bi-Rite, the creamery focuses on ice creams, baked goods, sundaes and ice cream novelties (like ice cream sandwiches, which are ice cream sandwiched by cookies). Flavors use high quality ingredients and are seasonally sourced, so expect to get something delicious!
+;[http://mitchellsicecream.com/ Mitchell's Ice Cream] (Ice Creams and Desserts) : Less high end but still tasty, Mitchell's focuses on tropical flavors like Avocado, Buko, and Lucuma, as well as serving some Filipino desserts like Halo Halo.
+; [http://www.humphryslocombe.com/ Humphry Slocombe] (Ice Creams and Dessert) : High end, tasty, innovative flavors. Known for Sundaes served with shrub/vinegar sauces, the Secret Breakfast flavor, and other good recipes. Located both in The Mission (Harrison and 24th) and in the Ferry Building.
+; [http://www.fentonscreamery.com/ Fenton's Creamery and Restaurant] (Ice Creams, Breakfast, Lunch, and Cakes) : Fenton's has been featured in some Pixar movies, as well as other films about or involving the Bay Area. It's known for its huge sundaes, late hours, and long lines. Visiting is an experience, but Fenton's is not known for high fashion ice cream.
+; [http://www.ici-icecream.com/ Ici Ice Cream] (Ice Creams) : Close by, and known for high quality, tasty, and uncommon flavors.
+; [http://www.lushgelato.com/ Lush Gelato] (Ice Cream, Gelato) : Located in San Francisco (Polk), Oakland's Piedmont Ave, and in Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto, known for a variety of gelato flavors, many of them using local ingredients.
+; [http://smittenicecream.com/ Smitten] (Ice Cream) : Known for using liquid nitrogen to superfreeze the cream or the sorbet mixture. The texture of the ice cream is silky and the texture of the sorbet is fluffy. If you have never had liquid nitrogen ice cream, you might be in for a treat.
+; [http://creamnation.com/ Cream] (Ice cream sandwiches) : Known for the ice cream sandwiches, made of cookies and ice cream, they also make other stuff. The ice cream is decent and the sandwiches are very tasty. Not a super-premium experience, but if you're doing the ice cream tour, it's worth a visit.
+; [https://www.chocolatierblue.com/ Chocolatier Blue Parlor] (Ice creams, sorbets, frozen treats) : This company specializes in high-end, airbrushed shiny filled chocolate candies, but the parlor also carries their high end gelato. It's a favorite for dairy loving locals like us.
+=== Tea & Coffee ===
+* Sightglass Coffee
+* Philz
+* Imperial Tea Court
+=== Booze (Alcohol) Tourism ===
+Note that St. George's Distillery, Faction Brewing, and Rock Wall are all basically right next to each other, each in a former hangar facing the airstrip of the former Alameda Naval Air Station, which, notably, was sometimes used by the MythBusters television show to do various mayhem filled vehicular experiments.
+;[http://thegoodhop.com/ The Good Hop Bottle Shop] (Beer, Cider, Lambics, on top and in the bottle/can) : We know the owner! A huge variety of good, hoppy (and non-hoppy) beers both on tap and in the coolers. You can sit at the bar and drink or take the bottles and cans back home with you for later enjoyment.
+; [http://www.stgeorgespirits.com/tours-and-tastings/ St George's Distillery Tour] : They will take very good care of you on the tour and during the tasting. A good time will be had by all.
