Zaatar on Sydney Road is a Lebanese bakery and cafe with a difference. Famed not only for its pastries and Lebanese flat breads, this expansive café also serves traditional Lebanese breakfasts and lunch dishes of mezze, dips and zoccacia – their version of foccaccia in zaatar bread. Be sure to check out the large sweets cabinet that can be enjoyed at home or in store, and catering is also available.
Growing up in a big Lebanese family, enjoying delicious food and offering warm hospitality to guests have always been a major part of our lives. Our culture is all about sharing good food, memorable stories and cherished moments and our aim is to replicate that on a day to day basis at Zaatar, now a much-loved Coburg establishment. As a proud family-run business, we love to bring the community together and introduce a taste of Middle East to you via mouth-watering share plates. We want you to feel warm and welcomed as you celebrate life over our range of Middle Eastern fare, all of which we make onsite daily to order.
At Zaatar, we are also very passionate about maintaining strong community ties and giving back to society. We are heavily involved with charities and special causes all year around; in particular, we collaborated with the Sydney Knafeh bakers in 2016 to raise over $31,000 for the Good Friday Appeal, which we run every year.
We are proud to have been featured on various media publications and TV shows such as Postcards when top Melbourne chefs Shane Delia and Joseph Abboud visited. We were also delighted to host Masterchef judges Gary, Matt and George when they visited this year to sample our food and chat with our mum!
