Odd Culture Group brings casual Italian dining to the Sydney CBD with Bar Bruno, an all-day neighbourhood osteria that captures the approachable spirit of traditional Italian osterias.
Located above the group’s underground daiquiri bar Razz Room, this relaxed venue welcomes guests from 10am with coffee and classic Italian pastries before transitioning to lunch and dinner service.
Group Executive Chef Tony Gibson delivers familiar Italian flavours with a fresh perspective. The standout? Mussels paired with fagioli giganti, ‘nduja butter and charred citrus, a dish that balances rich, spicy notes with bright acidity. You’ll also find cotoletta served with black garlic aioli and Murray cod prepared with parmesan rind brodo on the menu.
Bar Bruno offers the kind of neighbourhood Italian spot the CBD has been craving, where you can drop in for morning pastries or settle in for a proper Italian feast.
