A huge thank you to everyone who came out and made our first Paddy’s Family Day one for the books ☘️

As publicans, we strongly believe in the idea of the ‘third space’ - somewhere outside of home and work where people can come together, connect, and most importantly… have fun!

We’re proud to create a safe and welcoming place for local families to gather, and so grateful to be part of such a beautiful and diverse Maroubra community ❤️
