About Hooks At The Yarra

Tucked beneath Webb Bridge along the Yarra's Edge, this waterfront retreat trades the bustle of South Wharf for lawn beanbags under palm trees. River views and chilled beers set the pace before seafood platters and fresh calamari arrive at the table. Regulars head down for weekday happy hours and generous portions of spicy seafood spaghetti as the sun dips over the marina.

  • Riverside beanbag terrace: Waterfront lawn beanbags and palm shade provide an unhurried perch beside Webb Bridge.
  • Tranquil marina enclave: Tucked under the pedestrian bridge along Yarra's Edge, detached from the busy South Wharf strip.
  • Neighbourhood happy hours: Pours and cold beers paired with seafood platters, steaks, and tender calamari.

    I had spicy seafood spaghetti and it was really unusual like a fusion between Italian n Asian.

  • Steak Night

    Took a punt and went for “Steak Night” (Wednesday). Really pleased with the result. Steaks were cooked as we like, slightly less than “medium”, and the flavour was excellent.

Before you head over

Practical dining advice for visiting Hooks At The Yarra

  • Arrive early for bean bags

    On warm afternoons or evenings, head outside under the palm trees to snag a bean bag along the river for sunset drinks without the bustle.

  • Walk under the bridge

    Just a brief stroll under Webb Bridge from South Wharf and DFO, this spot offers a much calmer escape from the main strip's crowds.

  • Choose outside for quiet

    Indoor dining features hard surfaces that can become noisy when crowded; opt for the open waterfront patio for a quieter conversation.
