Welcome to Barnaby's Restaurant

Convicts first built the building that now houses Barnaby's in approximately 1826. The hand made bricks are still very much in evidence today in the private rooms of the original section of the building. It is believed that the building was originally used to house soldiers attached to The Government House of the day - and because of its proximity to the river became a strategic location in the establishment of the young colony. Rumour has it, that one Barnaby Templeton was the first convict to escape from the prison at Parramatta and was discovered hiding in this pair of historic houses.
