I'm in Sydney, out Manly way ... Seaforth
This is a good bar to meet people in as it's in Darling harbour and is
central and easy for everyone to find, right by the Sydney Aqurium, theres lots of other bars and clubs around the area as well, plus you can book a private table with couches over looking the harbour, free
Done a few webmaster gatherings there and they have all been a success.
