Our Story

Welcome to The FC Social, an inviting and inclusive open space that is fresh and fun, with an ethos of bringing our community together.

The FC Social officially opened in October 2020. Historically, it operated as Rydalmere Central Bowling Club, however in 2017 Rydalmere Lions Football Club together with Parramatta Council, embarked on transforming the surrounding fields into professional grade grounds featuring grandstands, first-rate amenities and a new playground. These tiered works have no doubt inspired our community, and inevitably the last piece of the puzzle was to modernise the Bowling Club. Now with The FC Social, our community has a place where we can all catch up for a cuppa, lunch, dinner, a business meeting, or a celebration - big and small!  

Our menu has been carefully curated with locally sourced produce and a great variety to suit all food critics, from seniors through to juniors! Enjoy generous serves, healthy options, takeaway, and allergy friendly options. Not to forget, there’s a great beer and wine list available from our in-house bar.

Our venue boasts unique event spaces, catering to all functions; from board meetings to private events.

Stop by with your family and friends; you’ll be impressed with the transformation.
