Serving Coastal Italian Cuisine & An Escape from the Everyday
Barbarella is a coastal bar and restaurant that offers a unique and refreshing escape from the daily routine. Inspired by the chic mid-century yacht culture of the Italian South and California, their menu brings the sun-drenched coastal flavours to downtown Calgary AB, combining Mediterranean fare with locally sourced West Coast ingredients and vernacular.
Every bite will refresh your senses and transport you to a sunny boat deck somewhere south of Amalfi coast. Barbarella's brand world is inspired by iconic coastlines of Italy, with bold stripes covering their coasters and menus, reminiscent of the graphic umbrellas scattered along the iconic teal green beaches. Their drinks menu features a soft and vibrant blue-green colour, reminiscent of the summery ocean depicted in Slim Aarons' famous photos.
