Offering a breakfast, lunch and dinner menu along with a creative drinks menu, Manly Wine is a top spot to visit any time of day. Whether you’re looking for a long lunch or Sunday afternoon session, Manly Wine is the place to be. It’s also a great venue for groups and functions with set menus and a range of private and semi-private areas available for bookings.

The Manly Wharf Hotel is located on (surprise, surprise) the Manly Wharf, which makes arriving by ferry a perfect option, should you not be a local.

The hotel has been a Manly hot spot for years and with their stunning waterfront location, it’s not hard to work out why. The interior is relaxed beach chic. The venue perfect for groups and always full however probably not the best quiet date night spot.

The food menu is standard pub fare meaning salads, seafood, burgers, grill and pizzas etc. Plus, they offer reasonably priced daily specials.

Drinks wise they offer cocktails, beer and wine. Also good to keep your eye out for their special events with DJ line ups such as Sunset Sessions, Australia Day and pretty much a party for every upcoming holiday there’s always something happening.

HEMINGWAY BAR

Hemingway’s Bar Manly

48 N Steyne, Manly NSW 2095

Sonia Piantoni and Emmanuel Deleuze took over the reins at Hemingway’s just over a year ago, moving here from the French Alps, where they own Le Montana, a Michelin Star restaurant in the mountain resort, Val Thorens.

Their common passion for gastronomy and love for Australia, which Emmanuel has been visiting for over 20 years, has inspired them to bring a little bit of French flavour to Manly.

Hungarian chef Zsolt Kovacs has had 12 years of experience fine-tuning his skills as a chef, starting his training in the Rhineland in Germany, before moving on to Munich, Berlin and Bavaria. Zsolt has trained with many renowned French chefs throughout his career and has been collaborating with Sonia and Emmanuel Deleuze, the French owners of Hemingway’s Manly, to create a menu that combines Manly seaside favourites with traditional French cuisine.
