Open 7 days my good man, however season ticket has been renewed and I plan to attend every home game. It's only Bridge of Weir so I can leave at 2.30 and be back to help to close up. My 20 odd years of away day jollies will be a tad fewer though unfortunately.

Just spent the evening sampling the new wines for Bernie's wine list. It's a hard life.....
-
Meh. But more of a positive meh than a negative one. I think.
-
Happy birthday you dirty old man..... ;-)
-
Will let my wife know as one of her best friends live in Bridge Of Weir and a bunch of them often meet up so will tell her to get along Bernie's Cafe /Deli in Bridge of Weir.
Have been in the catering trade for over 30years so if ever you want to chat about anything just pm me.
All the best to you and your wife Herbie
Thanks Bud. Appreciate the good wishes. It's a massive learning curve so I may well take you up on your offer! Actually looking at refreshing the menus at the moment which is a damn sight more difficult than I thought it would be....
-
Mrs. Herbie is asking if the Yum was about her or the cake ;-)
Cheers for popping by Poz and glad you enjoyed it. Sorry I missed you but I'm slightly less sorry than Sunday when I missed Sir Thommo when he popped in.....
I'll be gradually sneaking some Saints stuff onto the walls when the wife's not looking...
-
Excellent! Won't see me unfortunately (or fortunately) as I have to keep my day job going at the moment so I only do weekends. The girls will sort you out though.
-
Just found this thread. If I was still in Houston I would have been in by now! I'll definitely pop in the next time I'm over in Johnstone visiting my mum.
Good luck with everything Herbie. Look forward to sampling these cakes soon!
Cheers Poz. Welcome anytime Bud....

We also got a cracking cake review in last weekend's Herald!
Proof that we are damn good!

Herbie, when are you starting your sponsorship of Paisley Velo Cycling Club? You know how all cyclists love a cafe stop!!!
Hopefully half price Carrot cake for St.Mirren/PVCC members! ;-D
Not a bad shout to have a cyclist's special to be fair. We get loads in. Sponsorship may be a bit of a stretch at this stage though, it might be worth considering if not stupidly expensive!
-
A Bernie's lunch for myself and Mrs E today - lovely grub and ...... Cake!
All those street names but no Love St?
Cheers for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks a million for coming in. The street names are all from the previous owner unfortunately but will be changed eventually. A Love St one is definitely on the agenda.

Thing was never needed. On the only days when we had inclement weather over the winter, the dome proved incapable of coping with it and blew away
The weather was only bad twice last winter? Wow! I must have fallen asleep through most of it.....
-
Bridge of Weir gala day today. 20% off all beers, ciders and wines if you want some respite from the tombolas..... :-)
-
What kind of cakes do you do?
The wife says she might pop over tomorrow.
She said she was disappointed with your competition's* offerings in the baking department.
*Lochnagar.
All sorts of cakes get made directly on the premises at least twice a week.The head cook is a brilliant baker. She regularly does Victoria Sponges, Chocolate cakes, tray bakes, scones, shortbreads, carrot cakes. Too many to mention. No day is ever the same but we always aim to have at least half a dozen choices.

Is it just me or can you see Jennifer Lopez's front bottom?
-
Ffs, whit you scratching before you dae the cakes ???
Mind and wash yir hands.
It's the thought of all those wee flying beasties leaving your wallet whe you get to the till.... ;-)
-
Can you buy your cakes to takeaway?
If so I'll send the wife over to get some.
Absolutely!
-
Cheers guys and gals. Not planning on changing the name in the short term as it is a really well established business but "herbie's" is definitely in the offing!
All the cakes are made on the premises from scratch HSS, so no issue there!
Also get loads of cyclists in already but definitely worth promoting that further. Watch this space.

Morning all. Realise this is a shameless plug but as Div is an all round top chap, I'm sure he won't mind.
My good lady wife and I have just become the owners of Bernie's Cafe /Deli in Bridge of Weir.
It's been a dream of ours for a while to own a place like this and it's finally happened, so we are naturally delighted.
It genuinely is a cracking place (we wouldn't have bought it otherwise), so please pop in and give us a go if you can.
We have a licence as well so bottled beers, cider and vino are available, as well as the usual cafe stuff.
We do have plans for the cafe, including Saints fan discounts (naturally) but will be running it as is for a while until we find our feet.
I believe our very own Sir Thommo of Hawk is a regular punter too. :-)
Look forward to seeing many of you in there. Pop in. We look after our own kind :-)
Cheers!

For those that may not know, the trial of the guy accused of Simon's murder is due to begin on Monday. Let's hope our justice system does us proud for once.

Great story bud. Old story but relevant about Guni.
http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/football/legend-of-the-iceman.19678038
Most certainly a fan's favourite - mine included - but when you compare his scoring record with Dougie Somner or Steven Thompson his record is poorer in comparison.
Somner scored 25 league goals in one season. According to stats Guni managed 26 goals for Saints.
Maybe you were too young to enjoy the delights of Zico, Somner and Weir as a front 3.
Hopefully your kids got to the cup final to see our current number 9 Thommo doing what he does best - scoring!
I remember those three very well mate and would certainly put them in the "wish my kids could have seen them" category as well.

Gunni v Celtic.
What a header from him, plus Stickroth skinning their left back, who I think was Wdowczyk, but not sure.
My favourite Saints goal of all time.
I travelled to Porkheid that day in a car with 3 Smelltic fans. They parked the car at exactly the opposite corner from the Saints end so I had to run a gauntlet of stones and phlegm as I walked back to meet them after the game. I grinned like a madman all the way there. A truly brilliant day.
It actually makes me sad that my Saints supporting kids never got to see some of the players I did, Guni being a perfect example.

Mark McWalter's goal vs Sevco's predecessors at Love St is still one of my favourites.
