i went on saturday afternoon for bottomless brunch for my friends birthday!! food was incredible and sooo yummy. however! our booking started from 3:30pm and my friend and i did not receive our first drinks until 3:55pm. kinda crazy for a 2 hour booking!!
Great venue, friendly and attentive staff, immaculate food. Couldn't fault them for anything. As a guest at a wedding , we were very impressed with the venue as a whole. I was feeling a bit unwell and the waitress who brought me tea upon request, kept che king on me whenever she came back to the table. Customer service was A1 and the food was impeccably cooked and presented. Highly recommend
Manly Pavilion is an absolute gem on Sydney’s waterfront — the kind of place that effortlessly blends stunning views with exceptional food and atmosphere. Overlooking the sparkling harbour, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and take in the scenery while enjoying a meal that truly impresses. From the freshest seafood to perfectly cooked meats, every dish feels thoughtfully crafted and full of flavour. The cocktails are creative and beautifully balanced, and even the coffee is worth raving about — smooth, rich, and expertly made. The atmosphere is relaxed yet elegant, making it ideal for everything from a long lunch to a special celebration. Desserts are a highlight, each one as visually stunning as it is delicious. Whether you’re there for the view, the food, or just the experience, Manly Pavilion delivers on every level — a true Sydney favourite that never disappoints.
We tried the crispy eggplant, beef cheek ragu pasta and grilled cauliflower blossom. Every dish was so delicious and well designed. Very cozy, cool vibes. We got the romantic table next to the window, cool breeze blowing on a summer night.
