van het boekje Hart van de Lopikerwaard, uitgegeven voor de Open Monumentendag 2017:

Cafeé de Manebrug is vernoemd naar de gelijknamige brug die naast
het café ligt. Deze brug werd vroeger Monebrug of Monnebrug
genoemd. Dat zou verwijzen naar ene Salomon Hogendoorn,
een keuterboer die aan het begin van de negentiende eeuw in (de
buurt van) het latere café woonde. Of dit klopt is echter tot op
heden niet bewezen. De huidige brug is gebouwd in 1953.
