Beloved Berkeley Eatery To Reopen As Co-Op: Report

BERKELEY, CA — A beloved Berkeley eatery written off for dead just over three weeks ago has new life.

Bette’s Oceanview Diner's staff took matters into its own hands, and it now plans to reopen the iconic restaurant as a co-op later this month, Berkeleyside reports.

The restaurant will be called Oceanview Diner but the menu will remain the same, the report said.
