About The Lobster Pier

Tucked on Murray Street, this cosy micro-venue serves generous WA rock lobster packed into warm brioche buns without the hefty price tag. Seating around a dozen guests across just a handful of tables, the room keeps things focused and refreshingly unpretentious. Locals head in for crisp sweet potato fries, crispy calamari, and toasted lobster rolls drizzled in melted butter or truffle mayo—paired with a chilled mocktail before heading out into the city.

  • Micro-Seafood Parlour: A tight dining space with roughly a dozen seats and a focused menu starring buttery WA rock lobster rolls, tails, and calamari.
  • Swift City Lunches: Expect crisp sweet potato fries alongside rolls, tails, and calamari towers plated in minutes for an easy city lunch.
  • House Mocktails & Shakes: An alcohol-free lineup featuring tropical mocktails, shakes, and coffee to complement warm brioche rolls.

  • Generous Rock Lobster on Toasted Brioche

    WA rock lobster is served tender and juicy inside toasted house-made brioche with choice of classic butter or cheese and truffle sauce.

  • The Thrill of a City Hidden Gem

    Tucked away into an unassuming corner of the city, uncovering this cozy seafood gem feels like finding a hidden treasure.

    Just discovered this place on Google Maps and decided to give it a try today, and... it is so good!

  • Intimate Micro-Capacity Dining

    With only 4 to 6 tables and approximately a dozen seats, guests enjoy an unhurried, intimate dining room paired with attentive service.

    found this great little gem 12-seater restaurant. Aaron the waiter was so accommodating. They managed to squeeze me in and I found myself in a window seat, with beautiful jazz music and with a very tasty lobster tail.

  • Curated Alcohol-Free Pairings

    In place of a conventional bar, house-crafted fruit mocktails, milkshakes, and specialty coffee provide crisp, alcohol-free pairings that complement rich seafood.

    The mocktail I chose was fruity and sweet but still very refreshing and tropical which complemented well with the lobster.

  • Cajun Fries

    Cajun (ok, so the "Cajun" part was a bit weak) fries were the crispiest sweet potato fries I have ever encountered. Would 100% go back just for the fries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to book a table in advance?

With roughly 4 to 6 tables and seating for about a dozen diners, the space fills quickly. Table bookings are accepted and strongly recommended, though takeout is also available if tables are full.

Is alcohol served on-site?

No. The venue does not hold a liquor licence and does not serve beer or wine, though refreshing house mocktails, coffee, and milkshakes are served instead.

What styles of lobster rolls are served?

The lobster rolls come on soft, buttered house-made brioche buns with options such as classic butter sauce, truffle and cheese, or chilli crab, served alongside sides like Cajun sweet potato fries or salads rather than standard mayo-heavy rolls.

Can I get lobster rolls to take away?

Yes, takeout is available and packaged neatly to travel intact, making it a great alternative when seats are full or if you are in a rush.
