Woori Yallock is a town in Victoria, Australia. It is in the Shire of Yarra Ranges local government area, 56 kilometres (35 mi) east of the central business district of Melbourne.

The Post Office opened on 1 July 1886 as Woori Yalloak, changing its name to the current spelling around 1911.[2]

It contains a primary school, a football oval, a shopping area and a radio station (Yarra Valley FM), and is passed by the Warburton Trail, a walk and cycle track along the dismantled former Warburton railway line.

The town has an Australian Rules football team, the Woori Tigers, competing in the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football League.
