Bonsai by 4 Pines Manly

Tokyo nights and beachside beers meet at Bonsai by 4 Pines Manly.

Tucked beneath 4 Pines Brew Pub Manly, Bonsai by 4 Pines brings the energy of Tokyo’s late-night drinking scene to the Northern Beaches. Inspired by the narrow bars, glowing alleyways and towering skyline of Shinjuku’s Golden Gai, the space feels like a world away from the beach just upstairs. Dark, atmospheric and full of character, it’s a contemporary Japanese izakaya made for settling in with good food and even better drinks.

The menu, created by 4 Pines Executive Chef Joji Shikama, combines classic Japanese techniques and flavours with a modern twist. Dishes are designed to be shared, so gather your crew and order your way through the menu alongside sake, cocktails, wine or a fresh beer poured from the brewery upstairs. There’s also a banquet menu for groups of four or more and a two-hour bottomless Japanese brunch every Saturday, making it an easy pick for everything from a long lunch to a lively night out.

Whether you're heading there after a day at Manly Beach or looking for somewhere a little different for dinner and drinks, Bonsai delivers a taste of Tokyo without leaving the Northern Beaches.
