About Manly Thai Gourmet

Perched above South Steyne, this low-key walk-up pairs sweeping Manly Beach surf views with lightning-fast Thai comfort. Locals head upstairs for the remarkably wallet-friendly lunch deals—often served in minutes flat. Expect hefty portions of wok-charred pad see ew, crushed peanut panang curry, and crispy cashew stir-fries, best taken outside on the balcony where ocean breezes roll across the railing.

  • Quick Lunch Steals: Generous curry and noodle specials served in under ten minutes right across from the beach.
  • Beachfront Balcony Seating: Elevated open-air tables deliver sweeping views and crashing surf sounds along South Steyne.

  • Relief from Beach-Strip Inflation

    Diners experience genuine relief and surprise at discovering such high-quality dishes in a prime coastal location without breaking the bank.

    Surprised it’s so cheap at such a prime location. Definitely will come again next time I’m in Sydney.

  • Open-Air Surfside Ambience

    Open balcony tables pair rich, aromatic Thai curries and noodles with the ambient sounds of the nearby ocean surf.

    We ate on the balcony where you can hear the ocean as you ate and the food was incredible!!
