Fodor's Expert Review Elmwood
Berkeley
Neighborhood/Street
Shops and cafés pack this pleasant neighborhood centered on College Avenue, just south of the U.C. campus. You'll know you're here when you spy the historic Elmwood theater, near College and Ashby Avenues, or notice the long line snaking outside nearby Ici Ice Cream, at 2948 College. Check out the architectural details of pre–World War II storefronts and the century-old shingled houses that line the tree-shaded streets.
