Felons Brewing Co., one of Australia’s most innovative craft breweries, has officially opened its first Sydney venue at Manly Wharf. Known for its award-winning beers and community spirit, Felons takes over the iconic Manly Wharf Bar, bringing fresh energy to the waterfront destination.
Inspired by the adventurous spirit of four felons shipwrecked near Sydney in 1823, this launch is a symbolic homecoming.

The drinks menu offers a curated selection of beers, including Crisp Lager, Galaxy Haze, and limited-edition brews like a Japanese Rice Lager brewed exclusively for Manly. For every glass sold, one piece of plastic will be removed from Sydney Harbour in partnership with the Seabin Foundation. In addition to beer, the menu features cocktails, wines, spirits, and non-alcoholic options.

Live jazz, funk, and soul performances will complement the venue’s vibrant atmosphere, alongside DJ sets spinning disco and Afrocentric grooves. Felons’ new Lifestyle Club will foster community connections with a run club, beer yoga, and sustainability workshops. Family-friendly activities, such as free kids’ face painting every Sunday, will make the space welcoming for all.

Felons Brewing Co. is now open at Manly Wharf, East Esplanade.
