  • "An adorable spot, tucked away in west Berkeley. Top-notch food ranging from heartier savory breakfasts and lunches, to lovely pastries, a standard coffee selection alongside more unique drinks, and a beautiful seating space with outdoor patio. An underrated gem with a friendly team."

  • “I never write reviews but UQBAR is my favorite spot in Berkeley!! The food is so fresh and homemade. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried and the people are so kind! Every time I go I already can’t wait to come back :) I love getting the fruit plate - they even make their own candied citrus peels!”

  • "A lovely little hole in the wall treasure of a cafe!! Went by here to drop off film next door and photo lab and wandered in here to find a garden refuge and delicious fig leaf syrup ice oat milk latte. So delicious! Will be coming back soon."
