About Fyansford Hotel
The Fyansford Hotel is a family pub on Hyland Street in Fyansford, on the western edge of Geelong. Part of the building dates back to 1850, and it sits close to the Geelong Ring Road with plenty of parking on site. Three spaces are set aside for functions, and none of them carries a room hire fee. The Hyland Room is the cocktail space, with a green garden wall, a private bar and sliding doors that open to an outdoor courtyard. The Hyland Room holds 60 seated or 80 standing, rising past 100 when the courtyard is included. The Riverside Room seats 55 or takes 70 standing and looks across the Moorabool River to Fyansford Common. The Lounge, the original part of the hotel, has booths, high tables and two open fireplaces for up to 50. Finger food packages start at $24 per person, and seated set menus run from one to four courses. Grazing tables, platters, a champagne toast and cocktails on arrival can be added. The Hyland Room has a sound system, microphone and a large screen for slideshows, and live music or a DJ can be arranged. The Riverside Room overlooks the kids' playroom, which suits family gatherings, and functions finish by 1am.
