SQS Sundays at Thai Pothong Restaurant

It’s time to gather, chat, and connect with Sydney’s most welcoming queer community — and yes, we’ll be doing it over delicious Thai fare. Thai Pothong Restaurant in Newtown has opened its private dining room just for us, creating a warm, laid-back space where you can show up solo or with friends and instantly feel at home.

This isn’t your typical dinner — it’s a chance to meet people, share a laugh, and build real community over plates of green curry, pad thai, and som tam. Whether you’re new to town, newly out, or just looking to expand your circle, SQS has got your back (and your stomach).

The evening runs directly after the special screening of RuPaul’s Stop! That! Train! at Dendy Cinemas Newtown — grab a ticket to the screening for just $25 using this link. No pressure to arrive right at 7:30pm — come when you can, stay as long as you like.

Don’t worry about being the odd one out — this is a space for everyone, no matter your age, background, or how long you’ve been part of the community. Make new connections, catch up with old friends, or just enjoy good food in a relaxed vibe. And don’t forget — there’s photographic coverage at events, so if you’re happy to be featured in future promo (nothing too intrusive, we promise!), you’re all set.

We’ll keep things low-key and lovely — no fancy dress required, no dance floor to worry about, no loud music blaring. Just good conversation, great food, and good company.

RSVP today so we can secure your spot — and please, if you change your mind or can’t make it, let us know. We rely on accurate numbers to book the space right.
