Lalou Bistrot à Vin welcomes guests in a beautifully restored 1920s shopfront, nestled in the heart of Geelong. This Parisian-inspired wine bar and bistro exudes timeless sophistication through its distinctive design. The classic palette of bottle green and bordeaux red is enhanced by stone, timber, and custom leather banquette seating. The result is a warm, inviting, and charming French bistro that pays homage to the building’s rich history. The floorplan has been thoughtfully redesigned to include a commercial chef’s kitchen, a welcoming bar, ample restaurant seating, and a cozy central fireplace. Meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element, from the curved stone bar benchtop to custom wall panelling and timber partitions. The sense of layering and tactility extends to the furniture, lighting, and decor, each curated by Bloom. Bespoke fabrics and lighting, paired with vintage wall plates and art, make Lalou Bistrot a truly memorable destination.
