Fried Mice, Fish Tacos & wine. Perfect way to spend an afternoon.
Great food, great view, top restaurant (y)
i have never been dissapointed with Clancy's. Always good food with good ocean view.
It can get really busy, but if you can find an odd time in the afternoon to order some drinks and snacks it can actually become peaceful.
Staff are always so great and friendly here.
Definitely recommend.

Clancy’s is a busy quirky bar and restaurant right on the beach at City Beach. Family and pet friendly, and quite lively, there are many tables overlooking the beach and ocean. Clancy’s don’t take bookings, but we were seated fairly quickly on a Friday night, at a window table with high seats.
Returned here recently. Take off $10pp for the view and you have good food, well presented and great, friendly staff and service. You can now order your drinks, condiments or call a waiter from tablet devices at each table. Great concept for those of us who go nuts trying to get the attention of wait staff.

We checked and yeah, fish is the genuine thing. Not dodgy imported stuff. Great local beers on tap. Deep fried squid, fish burger, mice and fried broccoli were all perfect.

We liked the buzzy atmosphere and loved the view. Was worth the $20😊
In all honesty, for food alone I would rate this place 3/5, as essentially it’s a glorified, perhaps slightly overpriced pub feed wrapped in tacky beach-themed packaging.
The great, friendly service we received, along with of course the view, bumped it up to a 4.
I was happy with all of the food. I had the paella, and all the seafood in it was cooked well.
Would recommend for a casual lunch by the beach.
Popped in here recently for a lunch meal with the boss. Food is always fresh and tasty, but a bit overpriced for what you get. I suppose your paying for the view, but still enjoy the experience. Good wine selection and service also, but can get busy, so pick your time to visit wisely.
3.5 rating.
came in on a friday afternoon for a late lunch. we were welcomed and had our orders taken by friendly staff. once the food was served however, it was really hard to get anyone’s attention to ask for things (sauce, more drinks etc) despite there being plenty of staff walking around.
food came within a reasonable amount of time of about 20 minutes after placing our orders. the 4 of us shared the seafood platter and a plate of fish and chips. everything was cooked well, but the highlights were the fried squid and the fried fish.
overall it was a very expensive meal ($140 for the food, 2 beers and a soft drink), but it was reasonable with 25% odd with the Entertainment book voucher. the food was just good, but the view is amazing, hence the high prices. worth a try at least once!
Great food. Lovely service. Amazing view-what’s not to love!
Must be a lover of seafood though, as there are only a couple of dishes that aren’t fish/seafood
Will definitely be going returning to dine again
Had a great experience at Clancy’s. Restaurant was busy as it was the lunch time rush but the food was served promptly and was very tasty. We had the snapper and chips and the fish tacos. No complaints about either meal. View was amazing!
Came here with a group of five for dinner. We had the seafood platter x2 and additional chilling mussels. We were able to walk straight in and ordered our food and drinks. The portion was very generous. Standout was the tiger Prawns and Chilli mussels. Service was very quick and staff very friendly. The view of the ocean is just breathtaking. All of the food was fresh and delicious. After going to applecross branch, I much prefer this city Beach branch for ocean view and casual vibe. I also used my entertainment book voucher and saved $40. Great value for money, just $40 per person including beer and sparking water. Can't wait to go back again - highly recommend for a nice view, delicious food and great service.
My partner and i shared a seafood platter for two, it was fantastic, more than enough food for us.
Grilled fish, loads of chilli mussels and a huge serving of fried calamari, a genrous basket of chips, bbq king prawns, some cold marinated octopus and garden salad side.
The fish was very fresh and tasty, the squid was a touch oily but well seasoned and everything else was above expectation, would get again for sure!
Love this place for many reasons; personal and otherwise. Always good food; though sometimes pricey. Nice ambience. Staff are top par; and very professional and genuinely friendly. Beautiful views of the beach and ocean and of those that play upon. Good parking, too. Always a pleasure coming back and trying something different and/or my usual, which I have a few.
Love this place, it's location, the food and drink options are great.
THE BEST FISH AND CHIPS I'VE HAD IN AGES
THANK You to the staff that looked after us, brilliantly, oh, and new to me was the way we ordered the drinks from the table tablet - choose your drink, and it is brought to to table within seconds.
Looking forward to going again
Ordered a seafood platter for $95, enough for 2 people. Really fresh seafood, very delicious and had a table with sunset view. Staff were super easygoing too! Would definitely come back again!
Very good service. Have ordered the snapper and chips, chilli mussels is very nice than expected. Plus a glass of wine and a chai latte for total $90. Not cheap but we are happy with the experience.
Loved it. Beautiful day. Ocean views. Great window table. The cheese cob was the bomb💪 will return.
Beautiful view and atmosphere. The food was delicious and the service was attentive and friendly. Ordering through the smart tablets at the table worked well.
We went for a birthday and they were more than happy for us to bring a cake along and there was no cakage fee.
Came here for dinner by myself whilst on a trip to Perth.
Was staying in como and took me about 20mins to drive here.
Friendly service, and explained how to order.
You order food with the wait staff, and order drinks on the iPad on the tables.
Food and drinks came out very quickly.
I ordered the snapper special, and whilst it was delicious, the sauce covering most of the dish was cold. That was the only let down. Nice cocktails too!
And ladies, be sure to look at the signs in the toilets 💕
Thanks guys.
