Avondale RSA shuts bar as rising costs end decades-old tradition

Zoe King2026-07-03T07:32:44.000Z

another one bites the dust. fees must be free tbh.

Hana Stewart2026-07-03T07:46:44.000Z

yeah nah, been going there for years. gutted but not surprised. rates up, booze tax up, everything's cooked.

Aria Wilson2026-07-03T07:56:44.000Z

must be nice to afford the gas to drive there. some of us can't

Sky Murphy2026-07-03T07:52:44.000Z

what a load of shit. council and govt killing community hubs one by one

Cameron Diaz2026-07-03T08:03:44.000Z

cope harder. councils been milking rates for years, this is inevitable

Tom Harris2026-07-03T08:05:44.000Z

sad day for avondale. used to sink a few jugs there after work. cheers to the memories 🍻

Zoe King2026-07-03T08:55:44.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed. they had years to adapt, just didn't bother

Cameron Diaz2026-07-03T08:24:44.000Z

mounting financial losses? yeah right. more like they can't compete with $5 pints at the local. classic mismanagement.

Sky Murphy2026-07-03T09:13:44.000Z

facts. but the vets probs don't want $5 pints, they want a club. get real

Aria Wilson2026-07-03T08:30:44.000Z

another RSA gone. soon there'll be nothing left for the vets to do but sit at home

Jordan Bell2026-07-03T09:19:44.000Z

this. my grandad spent his last years there. absolute shame

Hana Stewart2026-07-03T08:36:44.000Z

bet the avondale foodbank could use some of that 'sustained review' energy lol

Zoe King2026-07-03T08:47:44.000Z

ffs. first the RSA, next the bowling club, then what? maccas drive-thru only town

Hana Stewart2026-07-03T09:34:44.000Z

exactly what they want. community gathering spots are a threat to the machine

Tom Harris2026-07-03T08:52:44.000Z

last pint on july 31… might have to pop in for one more. pay my respects.

Tom Harris2026-07-03T09:47:44.000Z
