About Thai Boat Restaurant

Tucked below street level in Manly, this intimate corner spot delivers punchy, fragrant Thai classics without the overwhelming dining room racket. Locals lean on the kitchen for generous portions of rich beef massaman, crisp coconut prawns, and tender barramundi. The dining room balances the warmth of a family diner with thoughtful touches—like chilled wine buckets brought straight to the table. While fully licensed, you can bring your own special bottle of wine for a modest corkage fee, settling in for shared plates or opting for the banquet for two before finishing with sweet mango over warm sticky rice.

  • BYO Wine Friendly: The dining room holds a full liquor license while also welcoming guests to BYO wine for a corkage fee.
  • Banquet for Two: Couples can skip the guesswork with a multi-course spread loaded with crisp starters and traditional mains.
  • Generous Thai Staples: Generous plates of beef massaman curry, coconut prawns, and whole fish anchor a menu built on fresh ingredients.
