Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
The Hold is a restaurant and bar on Sydney Road in Manly, presented as a tavern inspired by the high seas and an 18th-century galleon. That nautical concept gives the venue a clearly defined character, with the experience centred on its maritime setting rather than a long list of advertised menu details.
The venue welcomes guests from Tuesday to Thursday from 3pm until late, and from midday until late between Friday and Sunday. It also offers table bookings, functions and gift cards, making it suitable for an evening out, a larger gathering or a present for someone who enjoys dining and drinks in Manly. The website does not provide enough detail to describe particular dishes, drinks, entertainment or family facilities, so those details are best confirmed directly with the venue.
The Hold is located at 24 Sydney Road, Manly, and has a 4.4 Google rating from 994 reviews. For bookings, functions or general enquiries, guests can contact the venue by phone or email.
