Born in Berkeley in 1966, this pioneering chain with outposts through the city and suburbs is championed for “freshly roasted beans of the highest quality” and “very good" coffee drinks that can be paired with snacks and pastries. Reclaimed wood, industrial lighting and local art give the surrounds a modern edge, while communal tables accommodate laptop-toting regulars.
