Caffe Mediterraneum, or simply Caffe Med, is another infamous Bay area café located on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley - a city on the east shore of the San Francisco Bay. It’s the alleged birth place of the first Cafe Latte, and was described in the Fodor’s guidebook as “a relic of 1960s-era café culture.”
Located: 2475 Telegraph Avenue, between Haste Street and Dwight Way
