Welcome to Figbar.

Figbar is an award-winning modern meeting place, where pre-theatre pick-me-ups shine and first dates don’t have to end.  
It’s a place to eat, drink, and socialize after that relaxing sigh with the first bite of exactly
what you’ve been craving.  We aim to amplify your sweet tooth and bring dessert into focus.

Our menu is designed and created by Executive Pastry Chef & Owner Jaime Garbutt.

The Sweet Life

Founded in 2016, figbar has held tight to its original ethos: spoil yourself with the good stuff. We put hours of trials and testing into every item that goes onto our counter and is served on our plates, so you can rest assured it cannot get any better. We use only the best quality ingredients we can find, and we love what we do.

Our team is made of passionate bakers and makers who love to chat all things sweet. We are so excited to welcome you to our figbar family.

It’s 2024!!

It’s a challenging time for the food industry, but we LOVE what we do. In order to keep that love, we have made the decision to open to the public for 3 days a week with a hyper focus on what we set out to do: highlight Chef Garbutt’s insane pastry talent with incredible desserts where every element is homemade in our kitchen. The other 4 days of the week, we are going to be closed to the public to operate our ‘test kitchen’. This will allow us to keep our inspiration, our experimenting, and our passion for what we do. We hope you will be able to taste this joy and passion with every bite of our new menus. So watch this space! We are SO excited!
