10 years, thousands of cheese burgers, and a million amazing memories later. Thank you, Houston. We love you. ❤️🍔
What restaurants don’t always get to tell you:
First and foremost, THANK YOU for the outpouring of support. The messages, the memories, to all of those who stopped by and waited in line. Thank you 🙏.
Y’all have been there since the beginning and Justin wants to be totally honest with every one. That’s why he’s dropping another video to give you a glimpse into the other side of following your dream— what restaurants have to deal with behind the scenes, why you’re seeing some of your favorites fall, and some of the mistakes he’s learned from over the past ten years.
He hopes to answer these questions— especially for the next person following their dream and opening a restaurant.

Hey Bernie’s fam, we have some news.
Hey Bernie’s fam, we have some news.
We’ve had the pleasure of serving Houston the best burgers for almost ten years and have the laughs and the memories to show for it... but this pandemic is ruthless and Bernie’s Burger Bus is shutting it’s doors indefinitely.
Though the future is uncertain, know we’re grateful for each and every one of you and excited for what’s to come. Come join us for a tasty cheeseburger, fries and milkshake between now and our final service on Sunday, May 31.
Y’all freakin’ rock.
Justin Turner
It’s #NursesDay, say thank you to your favorite hero with a hot meal or a Bernie’s gift card. All you have to do is head to https://berniesburgerbus.com , click “Bernie’s Gift Card,” and follow our lead 💕👩⚕️
Surprise pop-up in our HEIGHTS location from 2-8pm! We’ve missed yo’ faces 😍. Limited Menu, Drink Specials, Beers & More!! Swing by, grab a burger, and say hello! Bellaire is still up and running and has lots of patio space for your social distant hangin’ needs 🍔🍔🍔
These awesome fellas have a tradition of swinging by after their Sunday bike ride, but in quarantine, every day is kind of like a Sunday, right? 🤪 we’re grateful for the support no matter the day of the week!
Delivery Apps & their role in hurting your local restaurants
Since the inception of these apps like DoorDash, Uber Eats, GrubHub they have been taking away money from restaurants at what most of us all feel are gouging rates upwards of around 30% of every dollar. In a time like this when you’re trying to support the local restaurants please do not use these apps, go to our website directly, go to other restaurants websites directly, call our restaurant directly in Bellaire.
We use a service on our website that is way more fair it allows the cost to be split equally amongst the restaurant and the customer and basically cuts that percentage of what those other apps charge for us in half so please use our website for ALL delivery options and not these other sites Houston, they are going to be the ones that contribute to the death of local restaurants forever during these extremely tough times.
Thank you again Houston for always supporting me and my big Restaurant family, we’re doing everything we can to survive this and we wish you nothing but the best!!
What a week it’s been, but we’re not giving up! See how you can help Bernie’s Burger Bus and the other restaurants struggling amidst this Coronavirus Crisis.
