A Berkeley Chef's Must Shop 5/3/2012

People choose where to live to be near the Berkeley Bowl. Tourist's eyes widen when they see the rows and rows of produce, many different varieties of the same fruits the market purchases directly from farms. With great prices, totally fresh produce many of my friends from San Francisco drive to Berkeley just to shop at the Berkeley Bowl. Nuf said? more

Berkeley Bowl Following: cult or religion? Religion. 2/14/2012

It's a religion. I go every Sunday, I leave feeling happy and at peace, with renewed faith in my fellow man and community. It's one of the only places where I have civilized, friendly interactions with random strangers, who ask: I knew all about Quinoa, but what is that Amaranth stuff you just scooped into your bag? , or ""I see you're buying dried skullcap and passionflower in bulk, what on earth is that for?"". people strike up conversations in BB. I met my wife there. I got married there. OK just kidding. But what a great place and without the insane prices of the large ""green"" organicky places. I loved Berkeley Bowl when I was a student, and I love it still. more

Berkeley Bowl 11/9/2011

Since I moved from San Francisco, a year ago, I have been shopping at Berkeley Bowl. Helpful staff, the store is alway's stocked with what I am looking for. The discount produce section is always a must to stop by. The best grocery store in the East Bay! more

Get your elbows ready 8/4/2003

It's a great store -- best produce section for good prices I've ever seen. Just get ready to spend a solid hour to pick up even a few things. Parking, the aisles, the lines -- everything is a hassle. But you won't find rabbit at $4.99 / lb anywhere else. Pros: variety, quality, prices Cons: parking, crowds, lines more

Fun store! 12/2/2002

Great tasting fresh variety of fruits/vegitables w/ competitive prices. Although the grocery workers are not top class, the choices of produce is very overwhelming. Pros: taste, fun Cons: crowded, shoving, loud more

Produce Nirvana! 5/30/2002

Ever wonder why you moved to California? The answer is right here in the produce aisles. 20 kinds of oranges, 15 different varieties of plums...the list goes on and on! Not so yuppified as Whole Foods, the BB is an East Bay institution, even in its new spiffed-up incarnation. more
