About Us
Bertie's Diner was founded by three business partners (Robert Lacey, Jackie Deaves, Danny Lacey) in 2006 with Danny leaving the business as part of a management buy out. Bertie's Diner is now a partnership between Robert (Bertie) and Jackie, both having extensive catering experience after owning a mobile catering unit in Gildersome for four years and a fresh food takeaway in the centre of Leeds.

The mobile unit was such a great success that they decided to expand and grow the business. They knew that Morley was an area undergoing major redevelopment with lots of new faces coming to town. The idea was to open a themed place for locals to eat. A fun place to eat, meet and drink. A shop became available opposite Blockbuster Video and the plan was put into action. The original four partners and founders of Bertie's Diner, along with the help of family and friends, began the redevelopment of the shop. Fifteen weeks later and the 50s Rock n Roll Diner you are familiar with today was born.

If you are wondering where the name 'Bertie's' came from, let me inform you. Robert Lacey, one half of the business partnership, was nicknamed Bertie Basset by his family many years ago (for reasons unsure) and the name has stuck ever since. The original partners thought that it would make a great fun name for the Diner, Robert is a larger than life character and has been adopted as the Diner's 'mascot' (laugh out loud).
