Manly 16ft Skiff Sailing Club Club, Manly NSW

We had an unbelievably wonderful experience at the Manly Skiff Club this past weekend. Every detail was perfect - the customer service was like no other I've experienced before! We will absolutely be back to enjoy the excellent food (beautifully presented and delicious!), extensive drinks menu (we enjoyed the Philip Shaw Chardonnay & the Stone and Wood Draft beer) and one of the loveliest settings in Manly - especially at sunset! Thank you Manly Skiff for a brilliant experience.

Great view of overlooking the manly ferry stop whilst on the quieter side of the harbour. We had outdoor seating under a lovely navy/white stripy sun umbrella. Services staffs are friendly and attentive. We really enjoyed the lunch time.

Deluxe seafood platter (for 2-3 people) was amazing. Waiting staff helpful and knowledgeable with advice re additional dishes (party of five). Service was fabulous and seamless. Atmosphere very relaxed and pleasant. Great spot. In fact, a gem. Will definitely return.

Huge thank you to Graham and the team at skiff club who went above and beyond to accommodate my best friend and our family to have dinner here which is a very sentimental place to her.
The venue is simply stunning. The staff were lovely. For such a busy time of year the food was not only delicious but came out surprisingly quickly considering how busy they were.
I've now become and member and will come more often.
Highly recommend.

I have lived in Manly for many years, and have been a member of the iconic Manly Skiff Club all that time. I use the club frequently. The location is superb, overlooking Manly Cove. A great place to sit back and watch the ferries and other happenings on Sydney Harbour. The renovations completed in the last few years have enhanced the presentation and made the most of the views. The Skiff Club is only a short 5 - 10 minute stroll from the Manly Ferry wharf.

The food is consistently good, better generally than pub food, which is probably reflected in the price. The wine list is excellent, and I have enjoyed one or two cocktails on occasion. The Skiff Club is open for lunch and dinner 7 days a week.

Bookings are generally essential, particularly in holiday season. If I had a criticism, as a member,it is often difficult to book. Whilst bookings on weekends and public holidays are for members only, no one ever checks and on quite a few occasions I have been unable to obtain a booking despite allowing what I would have thought was a reasonable period of time.

The Skiff Club can be very popular, and crowded. I suspect there is no cap on membership numbers. The outside area is available for walk ins only, so it's always possible to get a seat. In late December the club installs a marquee to provide additional protection from the sun.

My favourite dish is the Barramundi, although I have also enjoyed the Prawn Linguini and the steak. The Affogato dessert with Baileys is superb. Coffee and teas also available.

Staff are super friendly. A must visit for all visitors to Manly.

If you like my review,p,ease "like" so that others can benefit. Happy to answer any questions.
