The Berkeley Flea Market is a longtime local spot with a rich history, remembered fondly for its vibrant past in the 1980s. Today, it is a smaller weekend market with a mix of offerings. Visitors can find a variety of items, including pre-owned clothing, cool rings, misc electronics, artisan goods, records, beautiful Nepalese clothes, ethnic craft, sunglasses, knives, and bicycles, often at reasonable prices. There are also food vendors. Some note it feels pretty dead or desiccated compared to decades ago, missing elements like original paintings, pottery, or live music, and wish for a revitalization. However, others find great things depending on the day, praising specific specialty vendors and the community atmosphere, including a drum circle. The market has ample parking and is accessible by BART. While some feel it is a shadow of its former self, for many it remains a favorite local institution with the potential for more life.
Lots of vendors. The location is not right on google maps. The vendors are near the bart station.
