Lovely staff and good solid pub. Fair range of quality beers at decent prices. Stayed upstairs, room stank of cigarettes, bathroom didn't have toilet paper. Otherwise nice amenities and lovely building. I'll probably stay again and hopefully give a better rating 🙌

This pub is great. I actually remember coming down here years ago, namely because I wanted to see what Manly in Queensland was like (short answer being - not the same). Anyway, I decided to come back here again, even if just to refamiliarize myself with this pub, and it turned out that it was great. It certainly does try to appeal to a wide range of people, namely because of the selection of beers that are available on tap. In fact, this pub is actually pretty cool, with some really friendly staff, and of course they also have a lovely verandah area which gives you the option of some people watching

We stayed for a long weekend. all meals were great...more than just "pub meals". The neighbourhood was beautiful; markets, marina and some nice cafes. Highly recommend.

I only put one star as zero was not an option. Decided to come here for dads birthday celebration. After ordering, we were told 45 minutes until our meals would arrive, a little annoyed but understandable as it was busy. However after waiting over 45 minutes a few entree's that were ordered with mains came out. Another 45 minutes goes by and we FINALLY get our meals. I ordered a chicken schnitzel with a side of chips, what came was ten measly chips on the side of an average meal at best. my dad ordered a medium-done steak and it came out as well-done as they come. Cardboard. Considering it

No stars . only selected one star as you can't post your review otherwise. Went here for my wife's birthday and was very disappointed. Food is bad and overpriced. Chicken parmy - the batter or crumbs around the chicken was a gluggy mush. Not cooked somehow. It looked and tasted like a School science experiment. My wife ordered the barramundi. $30 for a piece of Fish slapped on a plate with a little miniature bowl of greens. You don't get the usual choice of spuds chips Salad or veg. You get one but pay for the other. Tricky. Then out came the salmon ? Politely told the waitress

Service was great..food was great..very disappointed with the manager who sternly order our friend who is a pro muso off the piano..with the remark.." it's not for customers "..very disappointing attitude! Patrons were about to be treated to a lovely live performance for free..sad reality is the piano has remained unused for years! I wonder why?..

The Manly Hotel was my local watering hole in my younger days. I hadn't been in a very long time so when I was in Manly last week decided to stop in for lunch.

The Sails Bistro has had a complete overhaul since the last time I was there and I was very impressed. The menu is new and fresh and as a sucker for seafood I couldn't go past the BBQ Seafood Plate, a piece of char-grilled barramundi, king prawns, salt & pepper calamari, and fresh pacific oysters served with tartare sauce for only $34, it was so good.

I was very glad to see that they still have Oz Karaoke on Thursday

There are some specials on meals here and the food is pretty good. The Thirsty Camel liquor barn attached had its heyday before the advent of the real bigbox places, but it's still fairly competitive. What gets me is this place is in a multi-million dollar prime position, but never seems to have reached its potential. It's a bit old, rowdy and ordinary. In saying this, I have some friends who love it, and have become 'members' of the pub, but I've never felt compelled to go there.

The Manly Hotel has a bit of everything. It is laid out a bit like a maze, there seems to be room after room, bar after bar.

They have a gaming area, TAB, sports bar, dance floor and accommodation. I went with my partner and his mates when they were visiting from interstate. They really have everything in one place to make for an awesome night out. The NRL was on so of course we watched the game (yawn), then we moved to the bistro for dinner, then into another bar area for a few more drinks and lots of merriment. Except for me, who was driving them home. Even so, the atmosphere is fun and the
