DOOLEYS Lidcombe Catholic Club

"Seems like a friendly suburban club. Nice staff and beautifully furnished / appointed. We ate in the more upmarket restaurant which was really nice and not that expensive when compared to comparable restaurants. We did check out the bistro afterwards and it seemed to have an extensive menu at very reasonable prices (maybe next time). I joined the Club with a 5 year membership costing only $10. This cost was more than recovered by the member discount in the restaurant."

"Nice club! Good fish collection, some very big. See photo. Very rare to see a club with this. I mean, this is supposedly to be a club, not Chinese Garden in the city. Amazing."

"Cosy, comfortable, excellent friendly staffs and amenities for enjoyment. Food, drinks, cafe and restaurant awesome."

"Service was good but wouldn't recommend eating at the Sports Bar. The pizzas were decent. Pepperoni & supreme. Loaded fries were cold. Korean chicken was cold, old, dry, tough. Nothing like korean chicken. Nachos weren't great either."

"Two handy tips - become a member, it’s cheap and you’ll instantly gain access to discounted food and beverages. Tip 2, if you’re planing on eating in the bistro here, when you order you’ll be asked which table that you’re sitting at - so, before you order, secure your table, remember the table number, then order. We ordered the Atlantic salmon and a steak - both meals were great. And a person, from the kitchen, delivered the meals to our table. This club has been clean every time that we’ve visited. The club is well known for its cheaper meals, cafe, friendly atmosphere and gambling facilities- in fact, an area not far from the front foyer has been recently converted to a sports bar with gambling machines and an extremely large TV - it’s a punter’s paradise. Staff have always been friendly at this club. A sign at the club today says that the current bistro area is about to be upgraded, and the bistro will be moved temporarily upstairs. The facility is wheelchair friendly. The club is located in a handy position - opposite the train station and taxi rank - the bus stops are listed one block away. There’s plenty of on-site car parking spots here."
