About Wayne's Take Away

Wynnum regulars line up at this retro corner takeaway for generous, freshly cooked cod and massive works burgers at unbeatable prices. Nothing sits under a heat lamp in the glass case—every batch drops into the fryer only when you order. Don't look for modern decor or card machines; just bring cash for crunchy battered potato scallops and hot paper bundles packed with chips.

  • Made Fresh to Order: Fish drops into the oil only after you order, avoiding holding cabinets entirely.
  • Generous Serving Sizes: Classic orders come stacked, from fully loaded works burgers to bonus potato scallops in the bag.
  • Cash-Only Counter: A vintage neighbourhood setup operating on cash payments with no EFTPOS facilities.

Key Advantages of Wayne's Take Away

Why locals choose Wayne's Take Away for fresh seafood, stacked burgers, and generous value

  • Fresh Cooked-to-Order Seafood

    Fish is never stored under warming lamps or pre-cooked in display cases, ensuring every fillet is battered and fried fresh upon order.

    No fish on display in the glass case, which means it is as fresh as possible.

  • Surplus Piece Counts

    Orders frequently include generous surplus portions beyond requested counts, maximizing volume and value for families.

    If you ask for 6 potato scallops, you don’t get 6, more like 12 i counted last time I ordered, and not because they were small.

  • Unpretentious Corner Simplicity

    Unvarnished surroundings put the entire emphasis on food quality, portion volume, and authentic preparation rather than decor.

    Don't be put off by decor, has no bearing on the deliciousness of the food.

Before you head over

Practical guidance on payment, timing, and portion sizes before visiting Wayne's Take Away.

    Withdraw physical notes before arriving, as the takeaway operates on a strict cash-only policy with no EFTPOS or card facilities accepted.

  • Allow Time for Fresh Cooking

    Seafood is prepared completely fresh to order with nothing held pre-cooked in display cases, so allow extra time for your order to be fried.

  • Plan Around Generous Portions

    Servings are exceptionally generous and extra pieces like potato scallops are often added to orders, so order conservatively to avoid surplus.
