Why it's worth checking out
The Manly Boathouse is a much-loved bayside spot, with a 4.1-star average from more than 2,600 reviews.
The modern Australian and seafood restaurant fills a sprawling space with wooden floors and a high, airy feel — a relaxed, generously sized venue built for a crowd. That big tally of feedback marks it as a genuine local favourite.
Manly sits on Moreton Bay in Brisbane's east, a relaxed bayside pocket. The Boathouse suits a seafood feed, a group meal or a relaxed catch-up by the bay — and it's at its liveliest on weekends, so booking ahead helps.
