About Margaret River Brewhouse

Margaret River Brewhouse is a microbrewery and brewpub located on the north bank of the Margaret River in the town of Margaret River, Western Australia. Founded and run by local families, it serves a rotating range of house‑brewed craft beers under the Margaret River Beer Co. banner, alongside generous, locally inspired dishes in a casual indoor–outdoor venue surrounded by Karri trees. The brewhouse operates seven days a week and is positioned as the town’s local brewery and meeting place, with a strong focus on fresh beer, seasonal food, and a laid‑back atmosphere.

A charge from “MARGARET RIVER BRE” or similar on a card statement typically reflects an in‑venue purchase at the brewpub — for example, beers, wine, non‑alcoholic drinks, and meals, or shared plates ordered for a group. Visitors may also be charged for takeaway cans, merchandise, or participation in events hosted at the venue. Tabs opened at the bar are usually settled in a single transaction at the end of a visit, so a larger‑than‑expected amount may represent multiple rounds of drinks and food combined into one final charge.

If you have questions about a charge, the best first step is to check any receipts, booking confirmations, or your phone’s wallet and banking app around the date and time of the transaction. Customers can contact Margaret River Brewhouse directly via phone or the contact details on their website to query a bill, obtain a copy of a receipt, or discuss potential billing errors. If a card was used to keep a tab open, confirm that the final amount matches what was signed for. In cases of suspected fraud or an unrecognized payment, cardholders should also contact their bank or card issuer promptly to dispute the transaction and request a card replacement if necessary.

Does Margaret River Brewhouse run ongoing subscriptions or recurring payments?
