Ripples Little Manly
Waterfront restaurant · Manly
Cafe and restaurant right on the sand at Little Manly Beach, open from breakfast through long lunches to dinner. It is run by a family owned group and won a national award for cafe dining in 2024.
Bill and Kathleen Drakopoulos started the group in 2000, and their four children run it today. You can bring your own wine, or get takeaway to eat on the sand. The harbour views make it a favourite for birthdays and bridal showers.
