Nicest gelato in Manly (and there is plenty of competition). The gelato is pretty pricey, so it is worth checking online for any deals or coupons. Good for people with allergies

Great location - kids can play (bring scooters) whilst adults relax. Good menu, concentrating on a range of seafood which is all good value and well prepared. The family pack is more than this family can eat and represents excellent value for money.

Approximate cost: $30

Clean premises, well run business - they don't keep you waiting for appointments. Staff are all competent and professional. You know they are going to get it right.

The staff at Stranz really know their stuff. They run an efficient, well organised business - you won't spend hours waiting around whilst they fiddle with another client. I've never had a dud haircut from them. My husband won't go anywhere else.

Approximate cost: $120

Not the cheapest, but definitely the best quality. Friendly reliable service with an amazing range of products. They aren't afraid to offer you cooking advice!

My three kids went there and we never had a bad experience. The level of care is exceptional. The staff don't leave every 5 minutes and everyone knows your name! It is not the cheapest service, but is very convenient (long hours) and well run.

Fabulous food and friendly service. It is the regular meeting place for mums on the way to and from school. Drop in for a coffee or have lunch from the wonderful treats on display. I can't resist the muffins!
