Ripples Little Manly

Mediterranean long lunches over Little Manly's sand.

All Manly restaurants

The local take

Ripples holds one of Manly's dreamiest positions: over the sand at Little Manly Cove, the sheltered harbour beach five minutes' walk from the wharf. Mediterranean-contemporary plates at upper-middle prices, 4.0 from travellers, and water views that argue for the long-lunch format.

Little Manly is where locals swim when the ocean beach is heaving, and lunch here after a netted-cove dip is the peninsula's most underrated combination. Book a water-side table and refuse to hurry.
