Essential Information

3115 Telegraph Ave.
Berkeley, CA

510-845-3640

The red-and-white sign proclaims that The Smokehouse has been serving Berkeley since 1951, and old timers do know this drive-in joint, which efficiently turns out big, messy "charbroiled" hamburgers, cheeseburgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwiches, veggie burgers and chili without frills. Heaping piles of fries and shakes and malts in every flavor-from vanilla, chocolate and caramel to boysenberry, cherry and root beer-keep customers coming back. People-watchers will be rewarded with an odd array of customers, from construction workers and pops pushing baby strollers to fashionistas with cell phones glued to their ears and hip-hopsters showing off their saggy-baggy pants and puffy coats.
