Rathmines Memorial Bowling Club is a licensed Club with an excellent Thai-based restaurant. The main building of the Club is the former Officers Mess where the Royal Australian Air Force established a large flying boat base at Rathmines in 1939 as part of the World War 2 defence of Australia.
The Club is part of the Heritage listed Rathmines Park. The Club has a Memorial Wall to commemorate the squadrons which were based at Rathmines and the 322 aircrew who lost their lives flying Catalina flying boats during the war.
The base reached its peak strength of almost 3000 officers and other ranks in 1944-45 and was the largest flying boat base in Australia
