I needed to grab a hostess gift and this place had nice options for a casual get together. Don't expect patisserie elegance, so if packaging and presentation is your bag, find a fancier place. But, if you want some authentic lamingtons or overall a place with lots of options, this bakehouse is solid!

Shortly after riding the ferry over to Manly, we stopped by Rollers for pastries and coffee to…read morestart our morning. They close at 2:00P, so we wanted to get there early and choose from the full selection. I loved their display of baked goods which are all lined up neatly into perfect arrays. Racks of the pastries were right behind the counter, including both sweet and savory options. The employee manning the front was so warm and seemed happy to help answer our questions about the day's offerings. She said the most popular item all year round is their almond croissant, filled with an almond frangipane, but her personal favorite at the time was the seasonal Hazelnut Praline Brioche. Given that this is something you don't see at any ordinary bakery, I couldn't resist and you could say she talked me into it! My second choice would have been their handheld apple pie with its perfect lattice and caramelized sugar on top. The HAZELNUT PRALINE BRIOCHE (A$12) was essentially a light airy donut filled with a smooth chocolate hazelnut cream that tasted like a Ferrero Rocher. The amount of filling was generous and oozed out with every bite... I could have eaten spoonfuls of the filling just by itself! A slightly crunchy praline crumb topping gave it a crisp cap. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of this brioche as it wasn't too rich nor too sweet. I also got a flat white coffee which was good, hot and paired nicely with my brioche. My mom got their seasonal lemon monkey bread which she said was just okay. It didn't have that cinnamon gooeyness that one would normally expect in this type of dessert. Similarly, they also offered a lemon vanilla custard tart which my sister enjoyed. Oddly, it was labeled only as a "vanilla tart" on the display, which is a little misleading, especially for anyone who's not a fan of citrus. This cafe has a nice open air seating area with ample space, a couple seats at the coffee counter and some seats outside. Most of the tables were already occupied by the time we arrived, so we sat outside. With the cafe being located in an alleyway, we were able to savor our pastries in the morning sun without any cars or traffic whizzing by. What a lovely way to begin our day in Manly!

Rollers was designed nicely and has an outdoor/indoor patio is a minute from the beach at Manly. Now on to the food. The pastry I got, hash brown, chorizo and cheddar was a lot heftier and filling than I was expecting. I felt like there more chorizo and cheddar filling than hash brown so was a little depressed i didn't taste that. But all in all the croissant still tasted great. 5/5 stars

I had just got done spending a lovely little afternoon in Manly. As the sun started to fall, I made…read moremy way back toward the ferry terminal and decided to treat myself to a coffee as I waited. I stood at the terminal entrance and was faced with two options: a) Gloria Jeans or b) unnamed bakery / café across the way. Being the anti-corporation, "mum and pop" supporter that I am, that choice was a no brainer. I ordered a soy cappuccino and a chocolate macaroon. As I touched that coffee to my lips, I was thrilled with my decision. The coffee was remarkably made, had a perfect medium roast and silky smooth milk. The macaroon was a perfect combination of airy crunch followed by chewy finish. It was so delicious I probably could have thrown 4 or 5 of those little loves down the hatch and not looked back. Luckily, I cut it to the last minute and had to run straight past Laurent in order to catch my ferry home. Temporary fatness averted.

This place is great; very reasonably priced food and a great atmosphere inside the Manly wharf. I bought a chicken and avocado roll for $6, and it was amazing! Well presented, tasted good, and even though it was only a chicken roll, it made me feel upper class. You should see the deserts they have available! Little miatures cakes of various designs and flavours, they have had a lot of effort put into their production. I actually saw someone stop as they walked past, look at the cakes, and exclaim in excitement. Its not only a café, but also a bakery, so yu can pick up some pretty nice-looking loaves of bread on your way home. I guess the best part is the vibe. You don't spend heaps, but the open luxury of the café, with the sound of seagulls on the wharf... It's a cool place to stop for coffee. But having said that, it's not a restaurant, so don't plan a big event out of it, it's a simple café, inside a wharf.

(Insert thinking face emoji) Maybe because we came here a bit later in the evening. They did run out of a few things. I can't remember what it was, but I wanted to try a particular pie and the girl at the register told me they ran out. It's a tiny place, basically a hole in the wall with very limited seating. To me the pies were OK, definitely edible, nothing outstanding. ~ Steak & Cheese Pie - 3.5/5 Good. Edible, but nothing stood out about it. ~ Chicken Satay - 3.5/5 This one probably had the most flavor of the three, a bit different. ~ Meat Pie - 3.5/5 Just your regular ole meat pie I might have to return a bit earlier in the day and opt for another pie or two...for the life of me I can't see or taste what my fellow Yelpers are raving about.

I had a cappuccino takeaway and, in hindsight, should have ordered a double shot as, the single shot was a bit too weak, which suggests one of two things a) too much milk and less foam or b) coffee not strong enough. I think it was too milky to qualify as a cappuccino in my opinion making it a bit weak. The place itself is quite nice and has a good vibe to it. It's small and there is some outdoor seating.
