"Just One of the Greatest Streets in the World!"
Wow! Am I really the first person to review this street? I'm astonished. This is not only the most aesthetically pleasing street in Berkeley, but perhaps a one of the best streets in Northern California. In fact, I think it may be my favorite of all streets. You can literally walk from one end of college to the other and never really come across a truly ugly block.
It also can claim three great coffee houses and an assortment of eclectic restaurants. You can eat Russian food, Chinese food, a Barney's hamburger, a Chicago style pizza, a fantastic pesto crepe, a great traditional pancakes and bacon and eggs breakfast all on College. Its a street filled with Victorians and wonderful archetecture all just in the shadow of the Contra Costa mountains. It's got bookstores and used clothing stores.
If I had to live the rest of my life only on one street in the East Bay, this might be it.
