About Mitre Tavern

Mitre Tavern is a historic English-style pub and steakhouse serving classic pub fare, premium steaks, and a wide range of local and imported beers and wines. The venue is known for its old-world charm, large beer garden, and relaxed atmosphere suited to after-work drinks, social gatherings, and casual dining. In addition to the bar and restaurant offerings, Mitre Tavern may host group bookings, functions, and events, which can include pre-arranged food and beverage packages.

A Mitre Tavern charge on your bank or card statement typically relates to in-venue purchases such as drinks at the bar, sit-down meals in the steakhouse, or group tabs for social or corporate functions. You may also see a single combined charge if you opened a bar tab and settled it at the end of your visit, or if one person paid for a group. Some banks may show the location as “MELBOURNE VIC” or similar, and the descriptor might include terms like “MITRE TAVERN”, “MITRE TAVERN BAR”, or “MITRE TAVERN MELBOURNE.” In some cases, a small temporary authorization or pre-authorized amount may appear when you start a tab or when your card is held for security during a function.

If you’re unsure about a Mitre Tavern charge, start by checking the date, amount, and location against any recent visits to Melbourne’s CBD or events you attended that may have been catered or held there. Review your bank notifications or receipts, and if you split a bill or bar tab with friends or colleagues, confirm who’s card was used to pay. For detailed questions, contact Mitre Tavern directly using the contact details on mitretavern.com.au or call during business hours, providing the exact charge amount, date, and the last four digits of your card so they can look up the transaction. If you still believe the charge is incorrect after speaking with the venue, you can then contact your bank or card issuer to dispute or investigate the transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a Mitre Tavern charge on my statement when I only remember going out for drinks with friends?

Mitre Tavern often processes combined bills and bar tabs, so even if you only recall having a few drinks, your card may have been used to pay for a shared tab or group total. If you handed your card over to start a bar tab, the final amount will reflect all drinks and food added before you closed it. Check with the friends or colleagues you were with to confirm whether your card was used to settle the group’s total.

What are typical charge amounts from Mitre Tavern?

Common charges from Mitre Tavern can range from around AUD $10–$40 for individual drinks or small snacks, to AUD $40–$80 or more per person for meals including steaks and multiple drinks. Larger amounts, often over AUD $150, usually relate to group tabs, work functions, or pre-arranged food and beverage packages. The exact figure will depend on what was consumed and whether you covered other people’s orders on the same bill.

Why is there a small pending or temporary Mitre Tavern charge on my card?

Mitre Tavern may place a temporary pre-authorization when you open a bar tab or when a card is held for security, for example before a function or group booking. This can appear as a pending charge or a small hold amount, and it is not the final bill. Once the actual transaction is processed or the tab is closed, the hold is released by your bank, usually within a few business days, and only the final charge remains.

How can I get a copy of my receipt for a Mitre Tavern transaction?

To request a copy of your receipt, contact Mitre Tavern using the details on mitretavern.com.au or by calling during trading hours and ask for a manager or duty supervisor. Have the exact transaction date, approximate time, total amount, and the last four digits of the card used. If you know which area you used (bar, beer garden, or steakhouse), mention that as well to help staff locate the correct docket.

How do I dispute a Mitre Tavern charge or request a refund?

If you believe you were overcharged or billed in error, contact Mitre Tavern directly as soon as possible, ideally within a few days of the transaction. Provide your receipt if you have it and details about the items you believe are wrong; management can review their POS records and CCTV if needed. If a billing mistake is confirmed, they can usually process a refund or adjustment back to the original payment method. If you cannot resolve the issue with the venue, you can then lodge a dispute with your bank or card issuer.

Can Mitre Tavern set up recurring or ongoing charges on my card?

Mitre Tavern transactions are generally one-off charges related to in-person visits, food and drink purchases, or once-off function payments, and they do not typically operate on a subscription or recurring billing model. If you see similar amounts from Mitre Tavern appearing regularly, review your calendar for regular meetups or after-work drinks at the venue that you may be forgetting. If you still suspect repeated unauthorized charges, contact both Mitre Tavern and your bank to investigate.

Why is the location on my statement different from where I live, even though I recognize the name Mitre Tavern?

Card statements often show the merchant’s registered trading location, which for Mitre Tavern will typically appear as Melbourne, VIC or similar, even if you primarily remember the name rather than the exact address. This can be confusing if you live or work in another suburb such as Camberwell but visited the CBD venue. Cross-check the transaction date with any recent trips into the city for drinks, dinners, or events to confirm the charge.

How can I contact Mitre Tavern about a charge on my card?

You can reach Mitre Tavern through the contact details on their official website at mitretavern.com.au, where you’ll usually find a phone number and an online contact form. When you get in touch, have your transaction details ready: date, amount, whether it was tap-and-go or inserted, and the last four digits of your card. This information helps staff quickly search their payment records and clarify any questions about the charge.
