Reviving Community.

Life Beyond the table.

At Bird & Bear, we believe hospitality is about more than just what’s on the table, it’s about the moments shared around it.

From early mornings on the water in Sydney Harbour to nights out cheering on your team with friends, it’s the experiences that turn a place into somewhere meaningful where memories are made.

Through partnering with local community groups, we create places for people to gather, connect and be part of something bigger.

Our Venues.

Every place has a story.

We breathe new life into historic venues worth preserving.

From sailing clubs on Sydney Harbour to neighbourhood pubs, each has a unique character shaped by its location, history and community.

We celebrate what makes each venue unique. Creating welcoming spaces that feel connected to their surroundings and give people a reason to come together to share experiences.

Our People.

It’s the people who make a place.

From the teams behind our venues to the clubs, partners, regulars and locals around them, people are at the heart of Bird & Bear.

Community brings our venues to life, shapes their character and makes them somewhere worth belonging to.

Our Story.

A Journey Shaped by belonging.

Bird & Bear began in 2011 on a small marina in Elizabeth Bay, with a simple idea to breathe new life into a place with history and community.

What started as a small neighbourhood café has since grown into a hospitality group built around places with history, character and community at their heart.

Our Approach.

Start with what makes a place special.

Drawn to places with stories already written into them, our approach is to build on the character that makes them worth caring about.

Preserving the history, while introducing fresh ideas, hospitality and experiences that allow them to evolve and remain relevant for years to come.
