Heads up, pancake fans. Bette’s Oceanview Diner, the longtime breakfast institution on Fourth Street in Berkeley, is not closing after all.

A group of seven former and current employees have banded together to save the beloved diner of 39 years after it shuttered abruptly on Jan. 16. They will operate the spot as a co-op with equal ownership and the exact same fluffy scrambled eggs and other fan favorite recipes. Look for a new name — The Oceanview Diner — and a reopening by the end of the month.
