What a great find! This Manly bar combines pirate chic decor with amazing service and incredible cocktails. We were lucky enough to stumble across The Hold in time for happy hour, and their margaritas were *chef’s kiss.* Heaps of vegetarian food options on the menu. Looking forward to a return visit.

We've been to this place possibly 10 times in the past and have returned because the food is good, service fine, we like sitting outside. This time we found that they've changed their approach a bit, similar menu (but have replaced the best chips in Manly with factory French fries 😒🥱). Good burgers with great vegan options that are appreciated. Service has deteriorated a bit - but I guess this relies on the qualities of the individual servers, maybe we just got a bad night. However, we had to ask for, then wait for, then chase our CUTLERY. Messy!! Pretty good cocktails. On the basis of the better experiences of the past we'll try one more time.

Vegan options are out of this world. Highly recommended spot in Manly. The grapefruit drink was amazing.

Been here about 5 times, it’s the Misses and I’d favourite spot in Manly.
The Captain Jack is the best burger on the Northern Beaches by far, that Mac and cheese “patty” makes it taste so bloody good. I also tried the cheeseburger spring rolls for the first time and they were delicious!!

The fact that they have the same menu in VEGAN option is just amazing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤩🤩 but not only that, they TASTE INCREDIBLE! Can’t believe it. Thank you guys! Staff is so friendly, the fries are the best! Ingredients always fresh. You just HAVE to come and try all the vegan menu!

Long before Beyond meat and Impossible burgers these guys have been creating the best vegan burgers in Sydney. Every burger on the menu has a vegan alternative. I once took one back thinking it was real meat... I was happily corrected!

Literally the best gluten free lactose free burger I've ever had. I'm not vegan but I am gluten free, lactose free and the staff were able to accommodate by mixing the vegan menu with the standard menu.
The result blew my mind ��
So yummy. I'll be talking about it for days.
I'll be back next weekend ��

I have seen that spot going through on changes for the last 6 years, but this is probably the best they could have done to it. It's a great location and now it got the best look and interior design. So cooool.
The menu is very straight forward, but the great thing about it that it serves all meals in vegan version as well. The vegan burgers are AWESOME!!! I got so surprised after the first bite that I almost considered asking the waiter if the kitchen made a mistake or it is just that good. It is that good! Keep up the good work, guys. I love it. Definitely we will return for trying more from your menu!

Team Hold, I am quite disappointed!!!
I used to love coming to your place for some awesome vegan burgers.
BUT, the last couple of times, the quality of food and the service were below average.
If you run out of vegan burger patties, it would be great if the service staff could inform the customers before ordering.
So, the last two times we were served the vegan "chicken".
Twice we were served the meat burger, even though we said vegan. So, we had to send it back.
Last Friday, it took almost an hour till we got the food.
I wouldn't even mind if the service was at least attentive and offering drinks and apologizing about the wait!!
Overall, it seems like there are a few issues within your venue.
I hope you'll be able to fix it soon!!

Amazing bar staff - and wait staff in general - super accomodating and talented!! They had no frangelico, so the bartender made me a chestnut liqueur, with ginger ale and orange slices - amazing! New favourite drink!!
The food is to die for - vegan macaroni cheese absolutely blew me away, and of course the burgers are right up there with Soul Burger. ♡

Amazing! incredible vegan food, great drinks, awesome staff! My favourite place to eat in Sydney and I must say that my puppy also loves going there, they always treat her so well and just like me she is obsessed with their sweet potato chips!
Trish Haywood
Beyond compare for vegan burgers! And if burgers are not your thing there are other yummy vegan options. Friendly, cosy and relaxed, you won't find better in Sydney. The old-style bar is so cool and fully stocked to provide a great night. Without doubt The Hold is my favourite place to eat on the northern beaches...it's a winner and I love it!

Fantastic place for drinks, dinner or both! Loved how the whole menu has the option to be vegan, with so many different options whether you are or not. Great food and service. Definitely my new favourite spot in Manly! Thank you :)

I had my birthday at this established and it was fantastic. The staff was super friendly and the food was lovely. The drinks were even better, the manager recommended a bunch of drinks for us from the new menu which was the best drinks i have had. Thank you for the hold staff for making it truly special for me!

Great little place!
Loved the decor, and the music was spot on which gave it a nice chilled vibe which was perfect for our afternoon lunch. Got the vegan version of the captain jack and was not disappointed :)
Even remembered the no ice in my drink which so many places forget haha
Will be back !
Ricardo Molina

Paris Baird
Vibes are so chilled & the service was INCRED.
But the food...NEXT LEVEL!!!!
Even if this place wasn't vegan I would still give it 5 stars - but seeings it catered above and beyond for my diet, just want to cry.
Best place ever. If you're a vegan, you'll feel a space in your little heart has been filled once you experience this place. If you're not, you will undeniably appreciate :)
Love your work legends!!
Melissa Wolfe
Love this place, love that everything on the menu can be made vegan or non-vegan ensuring there is something for everyone. The vegan burgers and "chicken" nuggets are so YUMMY! Thanks for bringing more delicious vegan options to the beaches!!!
Frances Sempowski
Love this place, a hidden treasure with awesome vibe! Had been crushing on it since it opened up in Manly so decided to have our work Christmas party there last night and it was amazing! Keith and his staff were nothing short of awesome which made for a great successful party. Burgers and cocktails were delicious. Highly recommended, they will not disappoint!
