About Manly Harbour Boat Club

Manly Harbour Boat Club sits on Fairlead Crescent at Manly Boat Harbour, looking across the marina to Moreton Bay. The club runs a main bar and bistro, a lawn garden bar and a rooftop bar, and it hosts functions across several of these areas. The North Stradbroke Room is the main private space, on the ground floor beside the marina and the Seaside Garden Bar. It seats 120 or takes 250 standing, and it is the one room where you set the layout yourself, with high tables and stools or low tables dressed in linen. Room hire there covers four hours, a private bar with its own staff, a projector screen with HDMI inputs, the house music system and private bathrooms. On the functions page the club says its Stradbroke Rooms take groups from 40 up to 400, and wedding guests can use the private pontoons for photos. Upstairs, the Rooftop Bar can be booked exclusively for cocktail events of up to 100, with a private bar and access to the house AV. A smaller semi-private section of the rooftop suits 50 guests with a DJ nearby; it is 18+ only and comes with the premium drinks package. Down on the lawn, the Seaside Garden Bar gives up to 50 guests a reserved group of picnic tables with background music. Catering runs from canapes and grazing stations to buffets and plated two or three course menus served alternately, and dietary options are marked on each menu. Drinks packages run for two, three or four hours, with add-ons such as spirits or a cocktail on arrival. Each space carries a minimum spend that the club quotes on enquiry. Send an enquiry to book and the functions team will come back to you with options.
