Why we recommend it
Bib & Tucker sits above the Fremantle Surf Life Saving Club on Leighton Beach in North Fremantle, among the dunes with views over the sand and the Indian Ocean. The restaurant is owned by Eamon Sullivan, Steve Hooker and Jamie Dwyer, who describe themselves as its official taste testers and sum up its personality as a touch of elegant rascality, and the kitchen is led by executive chef and partner Scott Bridger.
The food is modern Australian and changes with the seasons. The kitchen blends traditional and modern techniques, including smoking, pickling and cooking over fire, and the chefs cook whatever is freshest, building the menus around produce from Perth-based suppliers under a "love your locals" approach, with native ingredients also featuring. There are separate menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, the bar, desserts and drinks, and seafood plays a prominent part. The restaurant says it can cater for a range of dietary requirements.
Brunch is one of the most popular times to visit. Dishes reported on the breakfast menu include buttermilk pancakes, Mexican-style baked eggs, Japanese-inspired sweetcorn fritters, avocado toast and eggs benedict with bacon, served with coffee or something stronger from the bar. Later in the day the lunch and dinner menus take over, following the same seasonal, produce-led approach, and the elevated position means the ocean views carry on into the evening.
Seating is spread across indoor and outdoor areas, and a 2024 review in the West Australian Good Food Guide singled out the western and northern decks as the best places to sit. The restaurant suits couples, groups of friends and families wanting a long lunch by the beach, and it also hosts functions and events.
Bib & Tucker opens from Wednesday to Sunday, from 8am to 10pm, and is closed on Monday and Tuesday. Bookings are made online through the restaurant's website, and booking ahead is wise for weekend brunch and evening tables with a view. The restaurant is at 18 Leighton Beach Boulevard in North Fremantle, right on the beach, so it pairs naturally with time on the sand at Leighton or an afternoon exploring Fremantle.
