​By entering the PBC, you are agreeing to our Code of Conduct.
Do I need to be a member?
All bookings must be accompanied by a member or become a member upon booking confirmation. You can renew an existing membership or start a new one at www.thepbc.org.au/join
Bar Tabs
Ask at the bar when you arrive and our lovely staff will begin one for you.
Can children attend the PBC?
Absolutely. They must be accompanied by an adult at all times. When inside the venue they must remain behind the white line when near the bar (this is NSW law).
Children are not permitted on our bottom green unless playing bowls with an adult. Even after the bowls sessions appear to be done for the day, we ask you to refrain from kicking balls, running around and using the bottom green as a playground. It is for lawn bowls only.
There are two baby change tables and 5 high chairs available.
We do not take bookings for children's parties inside the venue and in the event of bad weather, we do not guarantee anyone a spot undercover/inside.
​
Wet Weather
If it starts to rain we can’t make any guarantees on seating in undercover area's or inside as we often have ticketed events in the club and inside capacity is limited.
Are dogs allowed?
Doggos are welcome, outside and on a leash at all times but must stay off of the bottom green.
Accessibility
Unfortunately, the venue is not currently wheelchair accessible, although this is a high priority for the club to fix soon and you can read more about our plans and donate here. We have two ambulant toilets.
