4th St Shops, near University Inn


If you're staying at University Inn, you're only a few blocks away from some wonderful shops and restaurants. Once you exit the hotel, walk west on University Ave (towards freeway), and take a right onto 6th street. Walk 1 short block over to Hearst Ave, left on Hearst, and then go down 2 short blocks to 4th street. Most of the shopping will be to your right.


For breakfast, check out the classic Bette's Oceanview Diner on 1807A Fourth Street. California-style diner fare and a great breakfast, if you can get there before the crowds. Open 6:30am-4pm, Fri-Sun, and 6:30am-2pm on Mondays. There's also Manhattan Bagel (1789 Fourth St) and Peet's Coffee & Tea (1776 Fourth St) for a quick morning pick-me-up.


Just past Peet's there's an excellent Mexican restaurant called Tacubaya (1788 Fourth St) that serves both breakfast at lunch.

For the full list of shops and a bit of history, check out Fourth Street Shops.
