Why it's worth checking out
The Pantry sits right on the Ocean Promenade at North Steyne, on the Manly beachfront in one of Sydney's most iconic seaside suburbs. A relaxed beachfront restaurant and cafe, it makes the most of its absolute beachfront position — with the sand and surf right there, it's a prime spot for a meal or a drink with an unbeatable ocean view.
The appeal is that combination of good food and a spectacular beachfront setting, ideal for a relaxed breakfast, a casual lunch, dinner or drinks watching the waves roll in. On one of Sydney's most famous beaches, the location alone makes it a standout, perfect for soaking up the Manly atmosphere.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 3,200 reviews, it's clearly keeping its many visitors happy. Menus, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular beachfront spot fills up on weekends and over summer, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're after a table with the best of the beach views, dining with a group, or visiting Manly in peak season.
