Donny's reviews
5 Star Review by YU
This is my first time visit to Sydney, so I got on the cruise and arrived Manly Beach. We had a Tuesday special steak , very good fries and steak. We also asked the bar to prepare two cocktails, which were very delicious. Very relaxing here and enjoy the music very much
4 Star Review by Valerie Jacquard
Great cocktail bar with live music. There are not many seats inside. The outdoor terrace is nice but not heated. Cocktails were fancy and the staff was really nice. There is HH from 5-7pm. First floor is to eat.

It looks like a really nice quirky place. Its full of women drinking cocktails and wine, maybe the odd male. We didnt order any food as there is a new menu coming out next week ( as told by the bartender) and the menu hasnt been updated. My glass was broken menus were dirty and sticky
5 Star Review by Hans Schlupp
A good place to hang with music and having a good time out, great people and a light touch on a California Style menu. The veggies are missing that are the hart of California meals though..
