Hi All!

GRMD is coming, but June is a bit of a miserable time of year in Sydney, so rather than a cold park, lets go to a warm pub with a big (heated) courtyard.

I'll try to snag a good table, come down and enjoy some drinks and good company. Hope to see you all down there!

Some general info about the venue

Specialising in craft beers, quality pub food and friendly atmosphere
We have 17 different beers on tap, including a great selection of craft beers on high rotation. Also come in to see our wine & cocktail lists.
The bistro at the Carlisle Castle Hotel combines traditional pub grub with modern Australian cuisine with an Asian influence. Super enjoyable & super delicious.

And they have a great special on the Meetup day:

ALL-DAY SATURDAY: $18 COCKTAIL JUGS
Come in on a Saturday to enjoy our delicious cocktail jugs. Your choice between white/red sangria, pimms, tropical thunder and gin bramble.

Sounds like a great place, and it's just a short walk from Newtown train station

On one hand, this sounds great. On the other hand, there's my crippling social anxiety :')

Have fun, y'all!

I'll definitely go to this! My girlfriend (who I met on Reddit) is moving here and she arrives on the 20th. Perfect timing.

Also, it turns out formatting doesn't work on titles.

I'm going to assume that the reddit group might be the largest group there? Otherwise will there be a way for us to identify each other?

How to identify the reddit group? I think the place will be pretty busy?
