About Marble Bar Roadhouse & Travellers Rest
Marble Bar Roadhouse & Travellers Rest is a combined fuel stop and roadside motel located in Marble Bar, in Western Australia’s remote Pilbara region. Catering primarily to long-distance drivers, tourists, and local residents, it typically offers 24-hour fuel access (via pay-at-pump or after-hours service), basic groceries, cold drinks, ice, and convenience items. Guests can also usually find takeaway meals such as burgers, hot chips, and snacks, as well as coffee and refreshments suitable for road trips. The Travellers Rest side generally provides simple, no-frills accommodation options for overnight stays, often including motel-style rooms or basic workers’ lodgings aimed at travellers, contractors, and mining personnel passing through the area.
A charge from “Marble Bar Roadhouse & Travellers Rest” on your bank or card statement is most commonly linked to purchasing fuel, groceries, takeaway food, coffee, or paying for a night’s accommodation. Some visitors may see multiple charges if they filled up fuel and then paid separately for meals, or stayed several nights. Depending on the payment terminal and your bank, you may also notice a temporary pre-authorisation hold when paying at the pump or when the business verifies your card for a room booking; in that case, a higher “pending” amount may later settle to the correct final charge. One-off charges are more common than recurring ones here, but regular travellers (such as contractors or mining staff) might see repeated transactions over time.
If you’re unsure about a Marble Bar Roadhouse & Travellers Rest charge, start by checking the date and amount against your travel or fuel receipts from Marble Bar or the Pilbara region. Look through any fuel dockets, meal receipts, or accommodation invoices you received at the time, and confirm whether anyone else in your household used the card while travelling. To resolve questions directly, contact the roadhouse using the phone number or message option listed on their Facebook page or your receipt; staff can usually look up EFTPOS/terminal records by date, time, and amount to clarify what was purchased. If you suspect an error or duplicate billing, speak to the venue first for a correction or refund, and then, if needed, contact your bank to dispute the charge.
