Royal Party Day

Overview

The Duke and Duchess may've already left Sydney, but this Paddington royal is throwing a birthday bash fit for a queen this Saturday, October 27.

Glenmore Road's Royal Hotel is about to turn 130 and is celebrating with free booze. Yep, free. From 1–2pm, in the pub's Verandah Bar, there'll be complimentary cocktails, beers and canapés. After that, Stella Artois will set you back $5 and cocktails $13 for the rest of the day. There'll also be live tunes to keep the party vibes going well into the night.

If you prefer your celebrations sitting down — and with pinkies up, perhaps — there'll also be a bottomless brunch happening from 11am–1pm. Ricotta hot cakes with raspberries, smoked salmon, poached eggs and chocolate are all on the lineup, as well as endless Champagne, espresso martinis, rosé sangria, bellinis and beers. The brunch alone costs $70 (with a cocktail on arrival) and the bottomless version is $85.

Bookings are essential for both and can be made via the website.
