Felons Seafood

Felons Seafood brings a waterfront seafood restaurant to Manly Wharf, with tables overlooking Manly Cove Beach. Its kitchen focuses on Australian seafood and produce sourced from local fishermen and nearby farmers, with the menu changing regularly according to what is freshly caught. The cooking is described as simple, with a Mediterranean influence, making this a useful choice for diners who want the catch and surrounding water to remain central to the experience.

The setting is relaxed and laid-back rather than formal. Felons offers indoor dining and outdoor seating, including views across Manly Cove that suit a long lunch, an early dinner or a sunset booking. The restaurant is open from Tuesday to Sunday, from midday until late, and accepts reservations for lunch and dinner as well as walk-ins. Drinks-only bookings are not accepted, although walk-ins can visit to explore the drinks menu.

The venue caters for a broad range of occasions. Families are welcome, with a dedicated kids’ menu and highchairs available, while group bookings and private functions are supported for celebrations and corporate events. It is also set up for guests with access needs, with wheelchair access via street level and lifts from the car park. Dogs can join their owners in the outdoor seating area, provided they remain on a lead and off the furniture. The relaxed dress approach extends to outdoor guests, where swimwear is acceptable, while indoor diners need footwear and a covered torso.

Felons Seafood is a practical pick for a waterfront meal in Sydney when the view matters as much as the food. Bookings are recommended if you want to secure a table, particularly for a special occasion, and the venue can accommodate dietary requirements when advised in advance. Keep in mind that the kitchen handles common allergens and cannot guarantee against cross-contamination. Google lists the restaurant at 4.4 from 406 reviews, adding useful context for diners comparing Manly’s restaurant options.
