Manly Bowling Club reviews
5 Star Review by Bede Millner
A great spot for a beer and round of bowls. We visited for a bucks party and the staff were very accommodating. It's in a great spot, with nice views over Manly from the top of the venue. Plenty of space for small and large groups alike, and a good selection of beers and drinks.

We had the an amazing time at the Manly bowling club. What a great venue for a gathering. We loved the overall atmosphere, service and concept. Highly recommended.
5 Star Review by Amanda Shaw
Really enjoyed our family get together at Manly Bowling Club. Blessed on the day to have sunshine We played "barefoot bowls" - just means flat soled shoes, or bare feet in warmer weather. You need to book ahead. We stayed after and had lunch. The lunch menu was limited but the meals a good size and not expensive. Certainly recommend for a fun family outing.
