Food Scene

Great for coffee, lunch and dinner. They have a reasonably healthy menu but are happy to change the dish at you request. They have a lot of fresh cakes and muffins also, if that's your thing.

Great local RSL club with a good quality bistro and coffee shop. Not a bad spot for a meet-up drinks/food. The Wine Room, tucked away upstairs, provides a first class dining experience. It's a beautifully decorated bar area, spacious restaurant and outside deck. Delicious share plates, fabulous wine list (Great choices by the glass - and proper glassware too!) and generous main courses. Each of the share plate choices are perfect taste sensations. So fresh, the zucchini flowers and dumplings are outstanding. You will be unable to find fault with anything, right down to the very professional service. Just go for a glass of French Rose on the balcony or for a lovely dinner.

Much loved seafood restaurant located just off Manly beach, in a landmark site set in a 1920’s inspired space with an emphasis on good old fashion hospitality. All seafood is sourced locally from Australia & New Zealand. Great professional staff and the owners are super friendly.

Popular Bar/Restaurant with a lot of tourists and non-locals as it's directly next the ferry launch. Good food and a bar dedicated to cocktails at the back. Great views of the Harbour... DJ playing at night until 1 am on the weekend.

Parks & Nature

I suggest getting on to the beach and walking north to the end. It's a little quieter. (You can start the Manly scenic walk from there to Manly, just look for the signs at the end of the beach).
