The Herring Room

Seafood dining worth booking on Pittwater Road.

All Manly restaurants

The local take

The Herring Room has held its place as one of Manly's most respected seafood tables from an unassuming Pittwater Road address. Upper-middle prices, a 4.5 traveller score, and a kitchen that treats fish with the seriousness a beach suburb owes it.

It's a proper booking-ahead restaurant rather than a walk-in — the room is intimate and locals plan around it. If Forage at the wharf is Manly's special-occasion splurge, the Herring Room is its slightly quieter, equally confident sibling.
