Ripples Little Manly
On the sand at Little Manly Beach
Ripples Little Manly is on the sand at Little Manly Beach, on the harbour side of the peninsula rather than the ocean side. Locals know it well.
The kitchen cooks modern Australian food across the day, following the season — lighter plates early and easier classics later. The restaurant is licensed, and you can bring your own wine or champagne for $18 a bottle in corkage.
The kiosk sells takeaway from 8am to 3pm every day, and again from 5pm Wednesday to Sunday, so lunch can happen on the sand. Breakfast is walk-in only, 8 to 11 on Saturdays and Sundays.
Lunch runs midday to 3 daily. Dinner is Wednesday to Saturday, 5 to 9, and Sunday, 5 to 7. Golden Hour is at the bar from 4 to 6 each afternoon.
