Nikkita

Nikkei cooking with pisco sours — Manly's most interesting bar menu pairing.

All Manly bars

The local take

Nikkita brings Nikkei — the Japanese-Peruvian tradition — to Manly, and the bar side is as considered as the kitchen: pisco sours, sake highballs and cocktails threaded with yuzu and shiso. The room is sleek without being cold, and the early TripAdvisor reviews land it near the top of Manly's ratings.

Come hungry, because the ceviche and robata plates are the point of difference no other Manly bar can match. It works equally as a full dinner or a late-ish drink with snacks at the bar — either way it's the most original night out on this list.

Nikkita is also in our food guide — see the restaurant page for the kitchen side of the story.
