Nefeli Caffe

I frequent this place whenever I'm in Berkeley. Love the flavorful coffee and the cozy atmosphere. Always friendly and courteous service, clean establishment, and the outside seating is really nice on sunny days. The food here is excellent as well. Typical fare you'd find at a small cafe, but made fresh to order. Highly recommend to any coffee enthusiasts.

Nefeli Cafe is my number one study spot. There are several reasons why I love this place. First, staff are very kind and always greet me with a smile. Especially, a guy at the cashier is exceptionally nice. Second, they have great options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can enjoy Greek and Mediterranean cuisine while you have study time or meeting with your friends. Third, their Internet connection is great!

This is, apparently, one of the go-to spots for extracurricular meetings with professors. I have had 2 unconnected professors suggest this place as a meeting spot. I'd reccommend this place if you're looking to make a good impression with professors or if you want to quietly enjoy a coffee near campus.

After a long study session, my friend and I decided to give this place a try since she lived across the street, and it seemed pretty cheap. My friend got the Croque Monsieur and I got the Mousaka. I had a bite of my friend's Croque Monsieur, which was delicious! The bread was nicely toasted and the mustard added a nice kick to it. I also appreciated that it wasn't overflowing with sauce. I was very happy with my decision because the Mousaka was absolutely delectable. It also came with a mixed greens salad and bread. The greens were lightly tossed in a vinaigrette. The Mousaka was a casserole with ground beef, potato, and eggplant, and was topped with a tomato sauce and cheese. The amount of cheese was perfect, and what I liked most was that the tomato sauce was nicely seasoned and not sour. The potatoes and eggplant were cooked thoroughly and their difference in textures complemented each other very well. The portions are generous for the price, and the worker was extremely friendly and did not try to subtly rush us out even though we were the last ones in the restaurant as it was approaching closing time.
