The staff of a North Shore bar are frightened and on edge after a masked man with a gun threatened them on Sunday night.
Police want information from the public after the masked man robbed the Postman's Leg bar about 9pm.
The man wore a full-face white mask, a distinctive,heavy, mustard-colour coat with a brown collar, dark pants and white shoes.
Detective Sergeant Ross Clapp said the man threatened staff with a gun, before fleeing with cash.
A second person was waiting in the carpark in a stolen silver Mazda Atenza station wagon, which fled as soon as the masked man returned with the money.
"This is a despicable act that has left staff frightened and on edge."
