Melo Melo Kava Bar

1701 University Ave, Berkeley, CA 94703, United States

A Palestinian, a Canadian, and a Colombian open a bar - no really - and decided to serve up some Polynesian culture. There's no punchline; we call it MeloMelo Kava Bar named after a noble varietal of kava from the island of Ambae in Vanuatu. Chill neighborhood tavern with non-alcoholic kava cocktails in a cozy, island-inspired atmosphere.

The Starry Plough Pub

The Starry Plough is a full service restaurant, pub and nightclub that has been a staple of the East Bay scene since 1973. With deep roots as an Irish Revolutionary watering hole, the history of protest runs as deep today as it did when we opened four decades ago.
