Paine Reserve is a fantastic community spot, perfect for a relaxing day out. The picnic area is spacious, with plenty of tables and grassy areas ideal for laying out a blanket and enjoying a meal. The place is very dog-friendly too; it's great to see so many people enjoying the area with their furry friends. There's also a well-maintained playground that’s perfect for families with young kids to have some fun. Overall, Paine Reserve is a well-kept, welcoming space that offers a little something for everyone. Definitely worth a visit if you’re looking to unwind outdoors!

Paine Reserve is located on the corner of Botany Street and Rainbow Street, Randwick. It comprises a playground, dog exercise park, sports field as well as toilets and change rooms. Dogs 🐕 are allowed off the leash but are not allowed 🚫 on the sports field. The ground was wet and muddy so I didn't check the whole park for BBQ facilities.

Nice big field.. there's some rocky outposts that give a nice aesthetic to the place and somewhere to sit other than the park seats.. there's a bubbler and toilets. Good for a soccer or footy match..or walking your pet pooch or kitty... Hell.. bring your rattie along so they can scamper around

Good spot for early morning exercise. If the dogs don't chase you, & the council turns the irrigation spray off.
