Book NowAbout Paranormal Wines
Canberra natural wine lovers treat this Campbell hybrid bottle shop and bar as an essential stop. Shelves stay packed with low-intervention bottles and skin-contact drops from local legends like Ravensworth alongside wild international imports. You can grab any bottle off the retail rack to drink in-house for a flat $15 corkage, or order by the glass while settling into the brightly lit, energetic room. The kitchen backs up the cellar with punchy, ever-shifting snacks—think chickpea panisse, honey-drizzled fried feta, spiced potatoes, and a crisp schnitzel.
- Curated Low-Intervention Wines: A focused selection of minimal-intervention, orange, and local pours like Ravensworth Riesling, available by the glass or off the shelf.
- Retail Bottles with $15 Corkage: Pick any bottle straight from the retail racks to drink in-venue for a flat $15 corkage fee.
- Inventive Snack Menu: A rotating savory menu featuring chickpea panisse, honey-drizzled fried feta, and spiced potatoes.

Nathan White Unpretentious, Reassuring Guidance

Although when I asked for suggestions the guy who helped me didn't go straight for their most expensive bottle and suggested an absolute cracker of a bottle

A. Martínez The Ideal Pre-Dinner or After-Work Stop
An easy, flexible stop for high-quality drinks and savory snacks before heading out to dinner or wrapping up the workday without needing a formal booking.
We dropped in for a pre dinner drink, on our way to dinner. Great wine bar located close to the Sebel, staff very knowledgeable about the wines and happy to share!

Departing from dimly lit, hushed wine bars, the room provides a bustling, bright setting made for spirited catch-ups with friends.

Practical advice for drinking and dining at Campbell's hybrid wine bar
Drink Off the Shelf for $15 Corkage
Instead of defaulting to the glass list, purchase any bottle directly off the retail shelves to drink in the venue for a flat $15 corkage fee.
Ask Staff for Low-Intervention Guidance
If you feel overwhelmed by low-intervention or unfamiliar labels, ask the staff for suggestions—they will match your tastes without steering you to the priciest bottle.
Expect a Bright, Lively Ambience
Expect a vibrant, energetic, and brightly lit room rather than a dark, quiet cellar; plan social drinks or lively catch-ups accordingly.
