Manly Interpolitan Cafe

Manly has a great casual vibe and so does this cute little eatery on the street corner right near the water. With sunny outdoor tables (dog-friendly) and cosy rustic indoor seating, it has a loyal local following. The menu looks good, with a big choice of all-day breakfast options and lunch from 11.30am. Lunches are light and healthy – sandwiches and wraps, salads, pasta, fish chips and calamari. You can even order a beer or wine and they have great coffee too!

Amazing food, friendliest staff in Sydney, and a super location in Manly. Location: it’s a small neighbourhood cafe with a funky vibe. Outdoor tables on two sides as well as indoor seating.

Food: over three visits we have had an excellent Bacon and egg roll; Mango smoothie- flavour was superb; Chilli Crab omelette- it was delish; smoked salmon and scrambled eggs-perfectly executed; Prato Feito with scotch fillet- tasty black beans, perfect seasoned chips; and a 14 hr slow roasted brisket breakfast plate that they made into a sandwich at my request, on panini with portabello mushroom and aioli. That brisket sandwich alone was truly worth coming back.Oh but I haven’t gotten to the best part. The Coffee! Truly outstanding beans and barista combined to give me my #1 coffee of all time, bar none. They use beans from Salvador Coffee Roasters. I searched for something negative to say to balance out this review and the only thing I could come up with was the food took a bit of time. Really that’s it! Everything else has been consistently outstanding.

We went there for dinner and I ordered the chicken and chorizo paella.
