About Fantôme
Fantôme is a wine bar and French restaurant at 126 Ryrie Street in the Geelong CBD. It trades until 11pm on weeknights and Sundays and later on Friday and Saturday, and the kitchen serves until 11pm. The room is dark and intimate, with velvet curtains, banquettes and candlelit round tables. The bar pours more than 100 wines by the glass, from classic French bottles to natural and skin-contact styles, alongside a French-leaning cocktail list. Private events range from a dinner for 10 and a tasting for 30 up to a full buyout of the venue for 100 guests. The team designs a menu for each occasion and builds the wine selection to suit it. Corporate dinners, birthdays and wine dinners are the kinds of event the venue hosts. AV and a private bar can be arranged on request. The regular menu shows the style of the food: terrines, baked camembert, duck à l'orange, raclette, tartiflette and steak, finished with chocolate fondant or truffle tiramisu. Event menus come from the same kitchen, using seasonal produce. Fantôme also runs ticketed wine dinners and tastings through the year, so the staff are well used to seated, paired evenings for a full room.

First time in Geelong and we thought we would stop in here for a cocktail before dinner and we were absolutely blown away. Not only were the cocktails works of art, they were delicious. You could taste how much love and…

Easily the best french food I’ve eaten in a restaurant. The fillet mignon was perfect. And the price is unbeatable. I’ve paid 6 times the amount for a steak in fancy places that weren’t nearly as good. The cocktails are…
