    Great location but boy do they charge. Totally not kid friendly, sure they have crayons but when I asked for a small salad to accompany my childs dinner they gave me a salad at full price not explaining the price or charge. They food came out at different intervals and we ended up paying for four adult meals for our two kids so they could eat something balanced. There was a group of us and I must say the service was slow and unfriendly. When I left I complained to the management, they asked me to wait a moment, as they wanted to give me something. I had to wait fifteen minutes and when they came back they gave me a voucher for a bier that had to be used in the next four weeks.
    Hopeless.
    If you want good Bavarian food go to somewhere else.

    Great location on the wharf which is one of only a few places Northside to enjoy a beer near the water with a setting sun. Just a fantastic place all round.

    Food is delicious but you do pay for it with mains $25+. All your usual fair of German sausages, schnitzels and saurkraut. If only peckish, get yourself a pretzel all warm and delicious.

    Beers, as you would imagine from a German inspired establishment, is extensive with options for those who cannot stand strong beer tastes with fruitier versions available.

    Service is excellent with prompt and friendly staff.

    We will be back.

    I had a great experience here. The food was prompt and delicious. The service was warm and welcoming. The thing that cost them the two stars is I would have like the crackling on the pork belly a little crispier rather than chewy.

    The child misbehaving at the next table wasn't pleasant but that's not the venue's fault.

    Overall a great place and I'll definintely return.

    Good atmosphere and great location. Bar service is great - they have the patience to explain all the german beers etc to help you make a selection. Meals are very big but enjoyable and there are plenty of options for the less carnivorous customers.

    Very good food and beer but very over priced. Being German makes it very hard as you are paying about 50 times what you would back in Germany, but they have a great range. Their Pork Belly Roast is very good.

  • Bavarian Bier Cafe Manly Wharf

    Jacqui Taffel

    Tuesday, September 04, 2007

    The northside's German outpost is a popular spot for hoisting absurdly large mugs of beer.

    Scanning the beer list at Manly's Bavarian Bier Cafe, I suddenly have a flashback to when I lived as a child in Munich for a couple of years with my parents. I was vastly underage - about 10 - yet the beer marketers really must have done their homework because, 30 years on, I still remember their jingles, word for word. "Lass Dir raten, trinke Spaten" went one (roughly: take this advice, drink Spaten). "Pau-laaaaaner!" went another. Steeped in happy nostalgia, recalling outings to Oktoberfest and summer beer gardens (always with responsible adult supervision), the evening has started well for me. Despite a chill in the air, we have booked a table outside for the views across Manly Cove. Augmenting two city establishments on York and O'Connell streets, this is the chain's northern outpost, in the Manly Wharf spot that used to house mod-Oz restaurant Armstrongs. We arrive at 6pm and it's already dark - there goes the view - but the sound of lapping water is pleasant. We a...

  • Bavarian Bier Cafe Manly Wharf

    It's huge and noisy but the waterfront location is unbeatable for a late afternoon bevvy.

    THE Bavarian Bier Cafe on Manly Wharf is far removed from the stereotypical beer hall. Instead of merry-making Europeans guzzling from enormous steins of beer while crammed onto long wooden benches, there are sun-bleached northern beaches types in summery gear and a sprinkling of tourists. They are all soaking up Manly's holiday atmosphere while sipping on everything from beer to schnapps and cocktails with names such as Bavarian Mary, the Black Forest and Apfelstrudel. We settle into an outdoor table just as the sun is setting over the harbour and city office workers are pouring out of early evening ferries. It's worth noting that if you want to sit outside to drink in the view as well as the brew, it's required that you order food. We try the Bavarian tasting platter ($21.50). There are tasty sausages, schnitzel, and pork belly slices all with matching condiments. It's rich but good quality and leaves us satisfied. (The antipasto platter, $19.50, is a lighter option). ...
