Barzura, established in 1994 by brothers Rodney and Matthew Sen, is a beloved family business located in the heart of Coogee, Sydney. With a team of over 30 dedicated employees, Barzura prides itself on creating a warm and welcoming beachside environment for both locals and international visitors. Embracing the vibrant community of Coogee, Barzura is more than just a restaurant, cafe, and bar – it is a place where staff and patrons are considered part of an extended family.
Committed to sustainability and ethical practices, Barzura goes above and beyond to make environmentally conscious choices. From offering a discount for customers who bring their own pre-cleaned cups to using only recyclable and decomposable materials, the restaurant prioritizes responsible sourcing and waste reduction. Barzura’s dedication to ethical sourcing extends to their seafood, which is all Australian and sustainably sourced with certification from the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC).
Not only does Barzura support its local community through sponsorships, donations, and fundraising events, but it also extends its reach globally by partnering with Communities Assist, an Australian NGO that provides essential services to orphaned children in Tanzania. Through initiatives like the “Kids feeding Kids” program and collaborations with local schools, Barzura demonstrates a strong commitment to giving back and making a positive impact both locally and internationally.
