The Bistro Barren

Perched on the Palm Beach Peninsula within the Palm Beach RSL, The Bistro Barren brings classic and elevated pub food to the leafy Northern Beaches. Part of a popular club, this foodie haven serves everything from rump steaks and chicken parmigiana to gourmet dishes with exotic twists.

The oven-baked bread, cloaked with garlic butter and balsamic, is a sure bet to start. Then, tuck into The Bistro Barren’s mouth-watering Korean fried chicken, a dish generously coated in a mouth-tingling mix of toasted sesame and gochujang BBQ marinade.

Meat-lovers will be licking their lips when they spot the 12-hour lamb shanks that are so tender they fall off the bone at the mere sight of a fork. For something adventurous, why not try the kimchi jjigae (Korean stew)? Lap up the aromatic broth of braised pork knuckle with garlic, soy, gochugaru and dashi stock.

With a laid-back atmosphere, the team from The Bistro Barren delivers a fantastic feed for hungry groups visiting the Northern Beaches. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to treat yourself, this family-friendly venue serves dishes to suit every taste. What's more, their friendly staff serves everything with a smile, always willing to go above and beyond to ensure each different tribe leaves every time with a smile.
