As a student studying Chemistry at Oxford, I'd definitely say the reputation of Berkeley in chemical world is much better than UCL's, very much due to Berkeley's strength in Grad School. But I have to say, UK's undergrad is generally very good for those who want to SPECIALISE in the beginning of their college study. But the chemistry school in UCL is probably just outside of top five in UK. When I applied to chemistry schools in UK, I put oxbridge, ICL, bristol over UCL. So in your case I would put Berkeley over UCL if I were in your situation.
