Dear Members,
We are excited to share positive progress on the development at Lidcombe and what it means for you as we move into Spring. In recent weeks you may have noticed several changes on the ground floor, with more improvements on the horizon.
New Temporary John St Entry and Reception
The temporary John St entry and reception are now open and conveniently located a short stroll south toward the train station. This temporary access point creates a new pathway into the club, with a new sign-in and reception area to greet you.
Members Lounge
The Member’s Lounge has now closed as the builders move in to deliver a seamless integration between the old club and the new extension. This step is essential for connecting the existing spaces with the updated facilities, and we are excited about the enhanced flow and experience this will bring. We appreciate your understanding as we complete this phase.
Entertainment and Activities
A reminder that live entertainment has temporarily relocated to Level 1 in the Banksia Room every Friday and Saturday night, giving you a dedicated entertainment space. The Level 1 bar and cafe remain open on weekends to ensure comfort and accessibility for all guests enjoying the entertainment.
Upcoming Enhancements
- Baileys Sports Bar: We are expanding the seating in this area to bring members more capacity and a more immersive Sports Bar experience - perfect for catching up with friends as we head into sports finals and spring racing season.
- Upper Cafe and Lloyds Bistro: Members would have noticed the demolition work underway to create a direct, easier link between the Upper Cafe on Level 1 and Lloyds Bistro seating. This will enhance accessibility and comfort, making it simpler to enjoy both spaces in one visit.
Our Commitment to a Smooth Experience
Our top priority is to deliver a seamless experience for members as we progress through the latter half of the year. We are coordinating openings and closures carefully to minimise any inconvenience and to keep disruptions to a minimum.
Our doors will always remain open, and our friendly staff are always available to assist with any questions you may have.
Your feedback is important to us. If you have any questions or need further information about the development works, please contact us at enquiries@dooleys.com.
