Very tasty food, but not enough on the plate and very over-priced. Drinks were also prohibitively expensive - my wife had an iced cocktail, which contained a lot of ice and very little cocktail. I had a glass of white wine, the volume was lower than the standard amount. Staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Meals and drinks were served relatively quickly, but effciency of service occasionally lapsed. For instance, after my wife ordered her cocktail, the drinks waitress raced off before I had a chance to give her my drinks order. I had to call her back to the table to place my order. The ambience was fabulous, a table by the window, overlooking the beach, was a great way to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We have been to The Pantry Manly several times over the years and have been very impressed with the service and menu, which is why we chose to celebrate our anniversary there. We left there yesterday feeling disappointed and still hungry after our tiny and over-priced 3-course lunch, and went elsewhere for a supplementary snack. We can only guess that The Pantry has had a change of ownership or at least a radical change in management since we were last there.

We were disappointed with the quality of the food. Small portions and overpriced We had fresh fish (tiny portion) and pasta Pasta was very well presented but again small portion and lacked flavour Service was great and view amazing but unfortunately that’s where it stopped

Went there Sunday afternoon for lunch. Place was crowded, very noisy. Tables were dirty, cutlery and glassware was dirty as well. Service was below average, staff did not know any details on menu, drinks service was disappointing. Food was below average, had octopus which was over cooked and the sauce was too overpowering. Burutta salad was simple and tasty. Sardines was average. Our mains, snapper was good and presented well, spaghetti was very undercooked and prawns were tasteless. Disappointed with the meal and service
