about us

Mouza co-owner Avi is one of those characters you don’t forget in Bellingen. He and his wife, Hannah have lovingly restored the towns historic former Bank of NSW in the middle of Bellingen, and opened the Mouza Gallery and Restaurant. The pair and their four children made Bellingen home more than 10 years ago, with the Dervish Gallery their original business. Opening a restaurant has long been a dream of Avi’s whose career as a cook began on the kibbutz in Israel serving hundreds of people each day.

Mouza is the perfect opportunity for Avi to combine his passions for food and hospitality.

” I love food and I like to see people enjoying it.”

Opened in early 2007, the gallery has a unique range of clothing, crafts, jewellery and homewares that have been handpicked from around the world. Mouza’s Avi has worked alongside leading jewellery designers as well as native craftsmen from small villages; to source gifts with a difference.

Be it candles, ceramics, silks, bags or jewellery, Mouza Gallery has something for everyone. Treat yourself or someone you love with a unique gift from the Mouza Gallery, and if you just can’t decide, we have Gift Vouchers available for any amount.
