I moved to Berkeley from New York City, and H&B was the
only mechanic that the BMW Car Club of America ("BMWCCA")
recommended in the area. Happily, H&B is a seeming clone
of the shop in New York to which I was also referred by the
BMWCCA, The Little Garage, in Queens, New York, run by Matt
Meng, who, like Allen Hardy and George Maslovski of H&B,
are gentlemen of exceptional integrity, not just among auto
mechanics, but among people in general.
All of the people who work at H&B are friendly, even
including Jeff, who's responsible for ordering parts!
What's more, even though there are obvious atmospherics in
which there is high priority to "getting the job done
right" punctually, H&B does not have the air of a sweat
shop.
Allen won't submit his lustworthy 2002 as a loaner to
customers, but, as a consolation, there are plenty of dog
biscuits on hand for the more easily satisfied yet more
demanding among us!

H&B is a small, owner-operated shop that is highly professional.
