If there’s one thing us Aussies love, it’s soaking up the sun. The only thing that we like more is, well, soaking up the sun with a bevvy in hand. This is why the ~ Sunday sesh ~ has become a pastime for us – weekdays are consumed with work, Saturdays are best spent in a nocturnal fashion, leaving Sunday as prime real estate for a few chilled beverages and letting society know you’re not actually an antisocial moron.
Emphasis on the chilled, folks. Rocking up to work on a Monday with a hangover and post-Macca’s run farts? Ain’t nobody got time for that. Oh, and to properly enjoy a Sunday session to its fullest you’ll need to pump the breaks the nights prior. If there’s one thing that doesn’t meld well with a day out, it’s being a sweaty, dehydrated cesspit of a human from the previous night’s festivities. You’ll have 10 x more of a time if you’re showered and not sweating McFlurry-dipped fries.
Anyway, what we’re saying is the Sunday session spots below should only be frequented by those in a position to truly appreciate ’em.

Whether you use your hangover-free Sunday to have a chilled sesh, go on a hot date, get life admin sorted, do the Bondi to Bronte, hang out with the family you haven’t seen in months or, you know, binge a Netflix show without falling asleep / into your kebab every five minutes, we all know they’re better spent when fresh as a daisy.
If you have a few waters between drinks the night before, you can enjoy a smug Sunday and take in the sights your city has to offer. Life’s too short not to make the most of the week’s first day due to a severe hangover, folks.
