Other than that, despite the excitement of seeing exploring the interesting decor, I wouldn't come here for the food. Perhaps it's my snobby Sydney palate. This place did try - but for the price, simply did not equate with what was served. Perhaps they are trying too hard?

Great range of options however, lthe prices are a little steep for what you get. For example, The Whippet, 2 poached eggs, a rasher of bacon, half a tomato and a small pile of rocket with a single slice of bread for $16. A selection of sweet baked items are available if you're not after a meal.

We had some battered reef fish, calamari and chips, as well as some beautifully fresh oysters and prawns. Bart's isn't nearly as prominent as some of the fish and seafood places in Wynnum and Manly, although it's right on the Esplanade at Lota. You can't miss it but it doesn't jump out at you. It's worth checking out.

Also very overpriced in some areas of the menu; two small rashers of bacon is $4.50 That man is the reason my friends and I will not be coming back to Cafe Le Mer. Or my friends of friends for that matter. Very rude.

The food is really good, I ordered coffee and a yummy bruschetta thing with haloumi. I'd like to have had the coffee before the brunch was served, not after. Prices were Manly brunch prices - around $12 - $19 for most dishes.

The staff are superb; ensuring that my food allergies were understood and catered for. The dirty chai latte was delightful; step no, smooth and spiced without being sweet. Then the veggie stack arrived: wow! Grilled pumpkin, sautéed 'shrooms, halloumi, perfectly ripened avo topped with rocket & cherry tomatoes... sooooo good! This is a long drive for me but I shall be back! Don't be diswayed by their hole-in-the-wall exterior- this place is top notch while being relaxed, homey and friendly!

Searching for a new breakfast haunt in Manly we came across Keith's, and with such a great view it…read morewas the perfect choice for a lovely Saturday morning. We only needed a quick look at the menu as we couldn't go past the Lamb Breakfast - two lamb cutlets, poached eggs, grilled halloumi, rocket and parmesan. All I can say is wow. The lamb was perfectly cooked, the poached eggs deliciously oozy, the halloumi nice and thin and not squeaky, and the rocket was impeccably dressed with shavings of parmesan and red onion to top everything off. I would definitely recommend this dish for breakfast or brunch. We've already booked in for lunch next weekend so I'm hoping their seafood offerings are on par with the lamb.

I have been here once so far but it was a really enjoyable experience and I would go back for sure…read more The place itself is warm and inviting. The front of the restaurant has great harbour views while the back has beautiful lighting, cosy red chairs and impressive gold mirrors. It is a great place to go if you are looking for a quality meal, rather than takeaway chips like I normally do. They do not have a huge menu, something I actually like because it usually means they do the few items really well rather than a huge number of things to an average standard. Mains include salmon, risotto, chicken and sirloin steak. I tried the risotto and it was lovely, not dry or bland at all.

Manly Cafe is fantastic. I have been here a handful of times and not been disappointed. The coffee…read moreis good, not too bitter and they have some great specials on the a-frame board out the front as you walk past. This board alone has tempted me in at least once with words like 'soup' or 'cake' or something else that I didn't know I felt like until I saw the sign and they suddenly I had to have it. They are almost always busy but I have not had trouble getting a table for two. The wait for takeaway coffee is pretty good too.

Well, when flying Qantas from Brisbane you no longer need to be raked over hot coals for a meager coffee, thanks to the newly opened Watermark Books. They've been open only two or three weeks and as well as supplying you with a decent range of books and stationary to keep you entertained once in flight, there's a café kiosk pouring Campos Coffee at standard café prices ($3.60 for a small coffee) as well as a small selection of cakes, quiches and muffins. And the real bonus, kids? Their long communal tables situated mid-store.

Book cafes are also a love of mine so I thought I'd give it a go. Coffee was fine, not the best I've ever had but totally drinkable. Got a caramel tart which while diabetes-inducing was pretty good. My coffee came with a tiny choc chip cookie on the rim (free things will win me over no matter the scale!) - so cute! Service was good and friendly - the guy who served me was pleasant despite still being at work at 5pm on a Friday afternoon. Sat. Ate. Caffienated. Paged through books I had no intention of buying.... Not a bad way to wait around for my flight!
