Berni Inns...do they still exist?

[shoeshine]

I remember going to one with my wife in the early '70s...the one at the Norton Hotel, at the top of Meadowhead.

 

My son asked me about them the other day...

That's a Beefeater now.

 

My family still call it a Berni I'm too young.

Surf and turf...........Steak and Scampi...........I've never seen it anywhere else...........very 70's though, bit like soup in a basket

There was the Old 12 -now Market Tavern- the one at Norton but where was the one around Orchard St?

Surely you jest? It's a staple ingredient of most restaurant menus.

 

And yes, the Bernie chain was bought out by the Beefeater chain in .... hmm, about 1978, I think.

Prawn Cocktail, Steak and Chips, Black Forest Gateau, Schooner of Sherry.

 

 

Pass the sick bag Alice.
