One waterfront address
A relaxed coastal venue, all under one roof
Bistro Bondi brings a beachside grill, craft beer garden and fully licensed offline real-money casino together in one open-air Manly Wharf venue. Come in for a long lunch, meet friends for taps beside the water, or plan an adult evening that includes time on the physical gaming floor.
A full waterfront stop
Move naturally from seafood and pints to the sun deck, then visit the in-person gaming floor if you are eligible. Gaming is physical, offline and real money; The Pacific Brewhouse is strictly a 21+ venue.
Kitchen & taps
Coastal kitchen, rotisserie & sun deck
Fresh wharf-side food and a practical drinks list make it easy to build a meal, a catch-up or a longer social stop around the harbour.
Seafood from the coast
Sydney rock oysters offer a clean start beside the water, while barramundi fish and chips brings a familiar, satisfying wharf-table favourite. They are straightforward reasons to pause after the beach or settle in before an evening with friends.
Rotisserie and grill favourites
Wood-fired rotisserie chicken and grass-fed Angus burgers give the kitchen a heartier side. Choose a shared plate for a group table or an unfussy grill meal for lunch, dinner or a casual harbour-side catch-up.
Pour something local
Twenty taps and a coastal cocktail bar
Twenty local Australian craft beer taps sit alongside a coastal cocktail bar, so a drinks-led visit can stay relaxed and social. Drop in for a pint after the ferry, match a beer to your meal, or meet at the bar before finding a table outside.
Sun deck, booths and harbour views
The open-air sun deck looks toward harbour ferry views and makes room for picnic benches, communal booths and sports screens. It is an adaptable place for a quiet meal, a shared seafood feast or a group that wants to stay near the water without any formal fuss.
All-day kitchen service: the
kitchen serves from 11:00 AM until midnight, giving waterfront plans room to start with lunch and
run into the evening.
Physical gaming floor
Offline casino & real-money gaming floor
For eligible adults, the floor is a clear, in-person part of the venue: staff, tables, rules and real-world social play rather than an online product.
Live table games
Live Blackjack, European Single-Zero Roulette, Texas Hold’em and Omaha cash games are played in person on the physical offline real-money casino floor. The experience is table-based and social, with staff and fellow adult guests sharing the room. It is entertainment at the venue, never a promise of an outcome.
More ways to play socially
Casual tournaments, pokies, social dice and gaming tables add more formats for adults visiting the floor. Each sits within a bright hospitality setting where you can ask questions, take a break and choose how you spend your time without urgency or pressure.
Cashier, payouts and clear floor rules
A secure cashier cage handles cash exchange and real-money payouts onsite. House rules and table minimums are made clear upfront; ask floor staff for the current minimums and table-specific process before you sit down. That simple conversation helps every visitor understand the physical floor before play.
Ask before you sit. Staff can explain the current rules for the table you are considering.
Licensed local oversight
Bistro Bondi is strictly a 21+ venue. Bistro Bondi operates as a licensed hospitality and offline gaming premises authorized by Liquor & Gaming New South Wales.
