My old shoe

It doesn’t matter how long it is between my visits to my favourite venue, The Peel always feels welcoming and safe. I have many fond memories of this place including meeting my first boyfriend - oh yes, and my second boyfriend and…. I also find that it’s the most diverse bar I’ve ever been in. Most places have 80+% of patrons who are all “similar”. The Peel seems to have a mix of everyone. Young, Old, Gorgeous, Not So Gorgeous, Tradies, Professionals, Drags, Trans, and everyone in between. I also think having no cover charges and pub prices plays a big part in why this place is busy.
