About The Crab Pot Woorim

Fresh fish cuts wait on ice right at the counter, ready for the fryer before you head down to the Woorim sand. An unassuming coastal outpost on Bribie Island, the kitchen swaps out standard thick pub chips for hot, skinny fries coated in house seasoning salt. Regulars grab crumbed cod, tender calamari, and potato scallops to unwrap at the foreshore picnic tables overlooking Moreton Bay. For those skipping seafood, chicken burgers on bakery rolls round out the paper-wrapped beach spread.

  • Fresh Raw Counter Display: A front refrigerated display lets you pick out cuts like cod and whiting before cooking.
  • Seasoned Thin Fries: Crisp shoestring-style fries arrive generously coated in a signature seasoned salt instead of plain pub wedges.
  • Foreshore Beach Takeaway: Seafood baskets, burgers, and dim sims pack neatly for lunch across the road at the foreshore park.

Why Choose The Crab Pot Woorim

Why locals and visitors make The Crab Pot their go-to coastal takeaway on Bribie Island.

  • Refrigerated Fresh Fish Selection

    Customers can inspect and select from a fresh raw variety of fish laid out in a front refrigerated display counter upon walking in.

    The choices of fish are many, laid out in front of you in a refrigerated display as you enter the shop.

  • Seasoned Thin-Cut Fries

    Unlike standard thick-cut pub chips, orders are paired with crunchy thin fries tossed in the shop's signature seasoning salt.

    Even the chips are thin McDonalds fries with the yummiest seasoning salt on it.

  • A Bribie Island Ritual

    The shop provides an enduring seaside tradition for families and couples returning to Woorim on every trip to Bribie Island.

    We regularly come up to Bribie from Brisbane and a Crab Pot lunch or dinner is a must-do every time.

    The service was great and chef Jordon is warm, friendly, super accommodating and he can sure cook some fish and chips!!

  • Foreshore & Beach Takeaway Dining

    Generous takeaway packs are designed to travel cleanly across the road to the beach or public foreshore park overlooking the water.

    Good quality takeaway fish and chips enjoyed at a public foreshore table, over looking Moreton bay, with views across to Moreton Island, how good is that.

  • Bakery-Fresh Burgers & Comfort Options

    Visitors seeking non-seafood comfort options get freshly made burgers featuring quality bakery rolls and tender chicken.

    One of the best burgers I've had for along time. The roll was quality from the bakery. The salad was very fresh. Chicken tender.

Before you head over

Practical advice for timing your order and dining by the beach

  • Plan for Peak Lunch Waits

    Lunchtime hours draw steady crowds, so anticipate wait times around 20 to 25 minutes during peak periods.

  • Note the Seasoned Thin Fries

    The shop serves thin, French-fry style chips coated in signature seasoning salt; request lighter salt if you are sensitive to sodium.

  • Head to the Foreshore to Dine

    While there are a few outdoor tables outside the shop, taking your pack to the nearby foreshore park or beach tables offers the ideal scenic dining spot.
