Have more of a hankering for coffee and tea than street food this weekend? Then head over to The Hotel Shattuck in downtown Berkeley (2086 Allston Way) on Saturday for the 2nd Annual Berkeley Coffee and Tea Festival from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The festival will feature tastings from over 20 purveyors of coffee, tea and sweets, an outdoor Ethiopean Tea Ceremony under a canopy, Coffee 2.0 and Tea 2.0 discussions, plus lots of schwag. It also pays to be the early bird at this event — the first 36 people to attend will receive a free can of fair trade coffee. Tickets are $20 in advance or $25 at the door. [FunCheapSF]
