This is the best pub food in Manly and easily the best location. Packed full of local sailor types and hardly a tourist in sight. The food isn't cheap but the location is perfect.
This is the perfect place to bring visitors from the UK who think of Sydney as the place they saw in the post war advertising campaigns. The bronzed blokes, birds, beer and endless weekends in the sun. This place is it.
Blessed with one of the most beautiful harbourside locations in Sydney, this place is a pleasant 30-minutes ferry ride from the City in the beautiful beachside suburb of Manly.
The food is ordinary (very 1950s) but who cares! You don’t come here for fine dining! The drinks are very cheap, the beer is very cold and you can sit and talk to the drunken sailors and the beautiful local girls in your thongs as you watch the sun go down! Love it!!
Staff are always polite and friendly, especially Shaun Grinrod, a bar staff who is always friendly, and always has a smile on his face. Food is always delicious and quick and it's a great place to unwind with mates or to bring your family for a nice meal out with a beautiful view.
What a venue simply the best! The best place in Sydney on a Sunday arvo looking out over the harbour. Cheap club price drinks and food now is great. I was told new chef started in 2006..improved heaps since 2 yrs ago. Highly recommended. Get there early as the place is full by 1.30 pm. The seafood plate is Yum Yum !!!
The food used to be great, but the prices went up, and the quality went down. They try to be up market, but fail in what they offer. Great place for a beer and getting together with mates. It is a club, and if you are not a member, and within the 3 km radius, you will not get in. I have been a member there for 15 years, and I have seen the bistro at it's best, and now at it's worst.
Food was eatable nothing more, great view on service, its all counter and self service and decently priced. As long as you're going for the view you won't be disappointed.
Good quality Bistro-style food, no bookings available, no table service ('come and get it' buzzers) and pub drinks, but a view to die for. One of the best views in Sydney and nothing better than relaxing on a Sunday afternoon with a good meal sitting over the water looking out at Manly Cove. Get there early to bags the table of your choice. Just great.
What a great club. Best views in Manly. Very cheap drinks. No table service which is OK. On a nice sunny day, I couldn't think of anything better than an arvo at the Skiff.
What a great place to spend a Sunday afternoon. Right on the water and the deck has been done up to fit alot more bums on seats. Only had wedges and they were great. Can't comment on the rest of the menu. I have been put off trying it because last summer it was very mediocre.
