Berni Inn
A Berni Inn is one of a range of British restaurants.
Aldo Berni founded the first one in 1955 in The Rummer public house in Bristol. It introduced the post-war British public to the joys of prawn cocktail , steak chips and peas, and Black Forest Gateau.
The chain quickly expanded, first throughout Bristol and then the rest of the country. Unlike other restaurants, they didn’t do their own butchery but bought in steaks already chopped. It was taken over by GrandMet in 1970 and later sold to Whitbread.
British tastes have moved on, and Aldo Berni died in 1997 at the age of 88.
