Always nice to walk around from Manly Beach and have breakfast in this beautiful place! The venue is casual with flowers and lots of seating.
Amazing! Beautiful walk to the Boathouse followed by an amazing breakfast. Fit out, staff, food and coffee all exceptional. They even have daily newspapers to read.

Definitely deserves a stop if you are in Manly, especially if you are close to Shelly Beach. Good for a quick coffee / snack, proper brunch, or a day of chilling by the beach with a beer in your hand. There are so many things I loved about this place:
1. The clean, relaxed, beach-house design. What is authenticity? Was it the little boat house that began as a place to store boats, that gradually evolved to include a simple and convenient location to eat and other leisure facilities? Was it the first restaurant away from the waters that tried to emulate the boat house, and cater to a crowd who find themselves in an urban jungle but needed a little escape? Was it the restaurant that eventually brought the boat house concept back to the beach side, this time infused with inspirations from around the world, from the Peruvian ceviche, the British fish-and-chips, the American burger, to Cantonese-style dimsum platters? With a globally influenced menu, decor faintly reminiscent of the Hamptons style, at its core, this place is about enjoying the simple pleasure of being by the sea.
2. The ordering system and the service. Ordering at the counter then having the food brought to you meant that the service was fast and efficient. The staff was friendly and gave great recommendations.
3. The presentation and taste of the food. The iced coffee came in a cute glass bottle, and the latte was served on a wooden tray with the coffee and the milk in separate containers. The ceviche was really fresh and had a hint of sesame oil, which balanced its acidity. As expected, the portion of the ceviche was quite small and probably serves better as a shared appetizer than a main.
