Why Choose Donny's

Why guests choose Donny's for private celebrations, bottomless gatherings, and live music nights in Manly.

  • Dedicated Upstairs Loft for Milestone Gatherings

    Donny's provides a dedicated dark-wood upstairs loft mezzanine configured for private functions, milestone celebrations, and bachelorettes with custom food and drinks packages.

    The rustic, dark wood loft space was intimate, and the music from the live band created a great backdrop to mingle, chat and enjoy the company and intimate surrounds.

  • Turnkey Private Party Coordination

    Dedicated event coordination and welcoming floor hosts streamline setup, tailored menus, and drink service for memorable group celebrations.

    It was the perfect size for our event, the decor suited our theme perfectly and the musicians for the night (Gabe Parisotto and Ellis Hall) rocked the whole place!
