This is how I ended up watching a movie at this theater.
My friend and I decided to go see transformers revenge of the fallen but we thought that century theater would be empty since you know its Richmond..Boy we were proven wrong. We walked up to the window to get our tickets and it was sold out all 5 showings.

SO my friend and I scrambled to find which theater isn't sold out near by.
and UA Berkeley 7 came up. we called and asked if they are sold out. they said "No we aren't we are only half way filled....but we close in 20 mins."

SO we ended driving out to berkeley and seeing that this place is empty was a great + lol.

Once you enter in this theaters the has this old feeling. which is nice. Brings back memories of the day when I saw Mouse trap in SF in one of those super old theaters. yeah the seats are old. floors is sticky but not all the time. but this place is just a good place to catch a flick in a hurry.

Over all I like this theater. the look and feel of a old school theater is nice.
Only complaint i have is finding parking. but I would come here again to see a moving that is new knowing the fact that it wont be as packed and filled with immature kids.

This is the place  to chill!!!

No cover always free
good music
chilled people
25 pool tables!
lounge area
and full bar!
and most important DRINKS are AFFORDABLE lol

Ok How my friends and I ran in to this place. Well it happened about 5 years ago in high school.
We would chill in Berkeley because my friend works at a restaurant so we would walk around. We see a pool hall on one side of the street and we wonder how much is to play. So we attempted to go inside lol..... we found out it was bar and 21 and up area LOL! so we came back once we was all 21 as a group and had fun shooting pool and drinks lol.

Now its one of our favored kick it spots.
This place has over 25 pool tables which is crazy lol and all of them are in great condition.

I recently bought a game from here and they actually knew what I was looking for when I called!!! lol they were even nice enough to put it a side.
Well over all they are pretty normal as like any other gamestop. The guys behind the counter had a pretty bad mouth. Only reason I cared at the moment is because I had my little brother and he is 6 years old and you know kids....they pick up bad words left and right and think its cool.
Over all stop looked normal
shelves were stocked and looked pretty full. Clean and simple....

all I have to say is that if you are trying to get a game.
Make sure you call before you go unless you live a block away lol....

For a place to hear a lot of bad rep because of their name. I actually like Kaiser! They are clean fast and some what of a "ONE STOP STOP" place.
Garage is free and secure. The bathrooms are always cleaned every 2 hours. Very straight forward signs which wont get you lost. the Pharmacy is awesome 2 of them. Doctors are great!

OVER ALL I like this Kaiser despite its "Rep"
I would recommend anyone who's medical can cover Kaiser.

    this target is good if you just want to shop freely in a quiet store because there isn't a lot of shoppers just mainly cal students and a few other. Its very clean and they are stocked up pretty well. parking is plenty. its just a bit tricky for some people to find out how to get in. which isn't a problem. only down fall is that it isn't as big as other targets. but its still a good target.

Albany Bowl  

Category: Bowling

HEADS UP

I bowl here a lot and I must add that If you are drinking please DO NOT DRIVE... Albany Police + AlbanyBowl's Bar = trouble.

Also on traffic violation they are crazy. They pulled over my friend for just having his tag's expired half a month late... Also if you have a loud car (as in speakers or exhaust) don't drive it or SHIFT Low.... you stick out like a sore thumb. the police will pull you over just for it.

FUN place = Police lol... so yeah

Update at albany bowl they have new Games and a REAL ARCADE lol Tickets and all for prizes. 2 new basketball games 1 for little kids a air hockey table new pool tables and yeah a lot more new stuff. It can keep you occupied when waiting for your number being called for a lane.

    I'd like to say that Albany bowl is really a fun place to hang out . bowling, pool tables, and now!!! a air hockey table, Food and Bar and of course music. Well the service is great very organized ticket numbers and announcing it by speakers. They are very quiet during the day and very lively during the nights. Some people say Albany is ghetto but if you think about it every city has its ups and downs The pricing isn't too extreme and outrageous, for example Mondays and Tuesday nights from 7:30 i think and closing is a $1.50 per game. shoes run about $5.50 but I have my own equipment so =P Also on Thursdays and Fridays from 12noon to 5pm they have $1 games. Sundays from morning to 2pm prices are 2:50 a game. It really matters on when do you go bowling.

This place is great for grocery shopping a ONE STOP shop I should say.
Fresh sea food/meat and veggies

Prices are pretty reasonable well I believe its beats the hell out of Safeway

Also what I like about this place is that If you are hungry during the time when shopping you can just take a break and hit up the Chinese fast food place in the corner. Good price and you serve your self.

I love getting deep fried fish from the sea food area its awesome grab your fish let em clean it and fry it =DDD lol instant dinner ftw! (with rice and mang thomas sauce) its a Filipino thing.

Well come here and be amazed on what they have haha.
