Our new family celebration venue. Highly recommended for coeliacs. Fabulous spot, friendly and attentive staff (particularly with coelic requests) and best of all happy tummies :)
Love that they have gluten free vegan cheese pizza option. Our Hawaiian pizza came a little under cooked. Great gluten free spaghetti bolognese. The spaghetti all a pescadora (gluten free) was the bomb!
We rocked up to Chica Bonita last night, no booking, just vibes (and praying for a table because yall are always booked and busy). Faye, the legend, made it happen. Table secured, minimal wait time. How bloody good!
Big shoutout to Faye and Connor for looking after us like absolute pros. As someone with coeliac disease (I know, worst customer ever—sorry!), I felt so looked after. They took it seriously, explained everything clearly, and made sure I could eat safely and deliciously. Legends.
You can tell the team actually enjoy being there—the energy was so good, music was on point, and the rain outside? Paid actor. Pure ambience.
Cocktails? Dangerous (in the best way). Food? Ridiculously good. Vibes? Unmatched.
Already counting down to our next visit. Thanks team!
I had a lovely lunch with my friends. Food was great including seperate food for one of us who is gluten free. We were so well looked after by Naomi during lunch and Ben and Chris were also awesome. Thanks so much guys, we’ll be back!
I was served by a lovely waiter named Sam. He was hilarious and super quick with our orders and table of 17.
I had the chicken chorizo quesadillas, which were one of the best meals I have ever had. I'm not usually a cheese person, but the cheese on the quesadilla was perfect. The chicken was cooked and spiced wonderfully. It was very filling and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Also, most members of my family are celiac, and all the food was served fully gluten-free without cross-contamination. We all had a wonderful time and will be coming back again.
Valeska was our server. She was very knowledgeable about the menu. I have celiac disease and she helped make sure my food was gluten free. Steak was delicious and expertly cooked!
Really good place to eat for gluten free, there are so many choices. Even better it's easy to be paleo, low carb or even keto - just order salad bowl with meat and guacamole/sour cream if you eat dairy. Perfect and cheap healthy meal. Love the free range chicken too.
Best gluten free burgers ever. Very disappointed the prestons store has closed down. Have to come all the way to Manly for a burger. My fave is the Smokey Robinson! Bondi also great.Thanks for making amazing GF burgers.
Utterly delicious food (feed me more option) and service was exceptional. We were amazed by their ability to cater for gluten, dairy, egg and peanut intolerances. Wine was also yummy.
Fun fun fun - food, drinks, atmosphere and the gorgeous staff members make Tijuana’s such a vibe! The bottomless in particular is so worth it, the drinks come out quickly and there was plenty of food to go around + options for our gluten free friends! Highly recommend!
Please get someone who knows English to take orders. I got the exact opposite of what I ordered. I am celiac and the person who took my order could not answer any of my questions. I work in hospitality and know what food safety is, and know how to take care of customers. I didn't feel any safe and had to throw half of the food away.
Great food and great staff. My housemates and I were celebrating our Christmas in advance and we ended our day eating in Fratelli Manly. We all have restrictions such as one is coeliac, one is vegetarian, one is dairy intolerant and I'm allergic to crabs&shrimp but they have options for each. So well done. We enjoyed our meal very much, thanks chefs, thank you managers and floor staff. Well done BOH & FOH.
Really nice spot for a drink, their signature apple crumble cocktail is a must try!
The food was good, we had some crispy squid which was nicely fried and crunchy. Just to note the fried stuff such as the squid and fries is not coeliac safe as they are in a shared fryer even though it’s marked gluten free. We also ordered the calabrese salami pizza with a gluten free base, the toppings were excellent but the base had a really hard crust. It was still nice to be able to enjoy a safe gluten free pizza with my partner. Definitely will be back for drinks in the future, the food menu could be a bit more extensive but do appreciate they have options for coeliacs.
Our group of six dined at Sake (Manly), and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed, perfect for a group gathering. Their menu offers a great selection of gluten-free options, making it an easy choice for those with dietary needs (me!).
The food was beautifully presented and full of flavor—everything from the fresh sashimi to the perfectly grilled meats was top-notch. But the real highlight? The desserts!
The service was friendly and attentive, and the waterfront location added to the overall charm.
I just wanted to send a huge thank you to the functions team at Little Pearl for organizing my birthday celebration at the Beach Bar! The attention to detail, especially with the personalised welcome and bar signage that matched my theme, made the evening truly special. Everything ran so smoothly, and the food was fantastic (and filling!). I was especially grateful for the care given to my two gluten-free guests—they felt so well looked after. The cocktails were absolutely delicious, and the team ensured we had everything we needed throughout the night.
Our friends had a wonderful time, but I had the BEST time! Thank you for making my birthday unforgettable!"
Wockbar is an institution in Manly... Been going here on and off for so long. They have a great range of dishes and make a good selection of Gluten free dishes. The staff are always happy and friendly and the service is always fast. #letsguide #thaifood #chinesefood #sydneyfood #australia
I visited on a weekday and was really impressed by the service. We weren’t sure about which flavour margarita slushee to get so the server brought out some small samples to help us decide. They didn’t have an extensive gluten free menu but did have a list of what was gf and coeliac safe which they gave us, and so I felt comfortable that they would minimise any cross contamination. The steak was tender and cooked perfectly
A really enjoyable evening out. PC Paul Bunion and the rest of the crew really understand that novelty makes everything better. The vibes are excellent, the theme is some great nautical fun. The food and drinks menu offers great variety both conventional and surprising; plenty of vegan and gluten free options (my partner says the gluten free bun is the best she has ever had) and almost every day of the week offers some kind of special event to entertain. Special mention to the hospitality, the barstaff were super friendly and were so happy to chat to my partner and I about everything from the venue, to the local area, to pirates.
We only spent a short while there but would have happily stayed much longer and will definitely be back for tequila Tuesday!
Would rate 10 stars if it was possible, only give this one a miss if you hate fun.
I came here with my friend and our daughters yesterday. We had Marcela as our Waitress. She was kind, polite and was great helping me work out what I could eat (as per photo- chips aren’t coeliac friendly- my kids ate them) with my multiple allergies (gluten, dairy, egg and soy). Will definitely come back here again.
The locals in Manly stick to a great cafe when they find it. This one also has the magic ingredient of an excellent location - feels like being on the Mediteranean coast. Despite a super busy Australia Day we enjoyed speedy delivery of a delicious breakfast of poached eggs, smoked salmon, truss tomatoes and hash brown-they even accommodated a shared meal half gluten free and half regular sourdough toast with no fuss- wonderful service. The food and the coffee here is consistently good. The staff work so hard (a busy cafe is a good sign) and they always have a friendly smile. Thanks Jen and Mick.
Only grabbed a tea, the cafe was small, clean and very cute.
The food looked amazing — however I’m gluten free and couldn’t indulge.
The staff were a bit of a hit and miss, the lovely young woman that served me was on the ball, friendly, efficient and warm.
There was another younger woman working who was more shy and not as efficient and not as happy to serve customers.
Had the most wonderful dinner! Food was scrumptious. Service was excellent! Waiters were so professional and accommodating. Catered well for those on Gluten Free diet. Excellent! I will be back
If I could give a ten star review I would.
The food was incredible.
The service was especially impeccable given that my partner is coeliac the service staff were ever so thoughtful and caring.
And because we went to eat on a Saturday, the beats that they had playing were awesome. I found myself shazaming multiple songs-(tasteful Jazz-House beats).
Overall one of the better restaurant experiences I've had in Australia and I will definitely return the next time I'm back in Sydney. 20 out of 10, Would recommend 👌
Im coeliac and ordered the white gluten free toast. I paid $8 and was surprised to receive 2 pathetic slices of very ordinary toast. I know you make your own seedy bread so why not a high quality white? There is really good GF bread out there (Nonies) and I’m surprised that a place like The Boathouse has not sourced it.
Chicken burger in a salad wrap is a great gluten free option. Holds together well and big enough to fill you up. They did leave the avocado off though! Chicken burger was very tasty with plenty of flavour. Huge wait times on weekends always super busy. Great spot for takeaway on a sunny day.
Booked sunset sabi to celebrate a friend's birthday! We had such a blast - food was delicious and different. I am celiac so they were able to cater to my dietary requirements which is always so refreshing. Service was warm and friendly. Would highly recommend and will be going back for the Crispy Mushroom Rice bites. So goood!!!
