About Pearl + Co

Pearl + Co is an award‑winning waterfront oyster bar and seafood restaurant located on Hobart’s Victoria Dock in Tasmania, Australia. Known for its views over the working harbour, Pearl + Co focuses on fresh Tasmanian oysters, sustainably sourced local seafood, and a modern drinks list featuring wines, cocktails, and Tasmanian spirits. The venue offers casual dining, walk‑ins, and bookings for small to medium groups, and may also host special events or set‑menu experiences.

A Pearl + Co charge on your bank or card statement usually relates to dining at the restaurant, bar purchases, or charges linked to a group booking or function. Common scenarios include payment for a sit‑down meal, shared plates, oyster platters, drinks at the bar, or a combined food-and-beverage bill. You might also see a pre‑authorisation hold if you opened a bar tab, left a card behind the bar, or guaranteed a reservation with a credit card; this can temporarily appear as a pending charge before adjusting to the final amount. If you booked through a third‑party reservation platform or paid a deposit for a special event, that payment may also be processed under the Pearl + Co name or a similar descriptor.

If you’re unsure about a Pearl + Co charge, start by checking the date and amount against any recent visits to Hobart, business lunches, or group outings that may have been paid for at the venue. Review your email for booking confirmations or receipts, including from any restaurant booking apps, and ask friends or colleagues who may have used your card to settle a shared bill. To clarify a charge, you can contact Pearl + Co directly using the contact details on their website (pearlandco.com.au) and provide the transaction date, amount, and the name on the booking or bill so they can look it up. If there’s been an error, they can usually issue an adjustment or refund; if you still believe the charge is unauthorised after speaking with them, contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why was I charged by Pearl + Co when I only left my card to open a tab?

Pearl + Co may place a temporary pre‑authorisation hold on your card when you open a bar tab or leave your card with the venue. This hold can appear as a pending charge that is later adjusted to the final bill amount once you close your tab. In many cases, the initial hold will disappear from your statement within a few business days, leaving only the final settled charge. If you see both the hold and the final bill after a week, contact the venue or your bank for clarification.

What types of amounts are typical for Pearl + Co charges?

Pearl + Co is a sit‑down oyster bar and seafood restaurant, so charges usually reflect the cost of food, drinks, and any surcharges (such as public holiday surcharges, if applicable). Typical transactions might range from a single‑person meal and a drink to larger amounts for shared platters, cocktails, and group dining. Group bookings, set menus, or special events can result in higher charges, especially when food and beverage packages are involved. Always compare the amount on your statement with your itemised receipt or booking confirmation if you have one.

Can Pearl + Co charge me more than once for the same visit?

It’s possible to see multiple Pearl + Co entries if your bill was split across several cards, if you paid a deposit in advance and the balance later, or if a pre‑authorisation hold is still visible alongside the final charge. Only one transaction should represent the final bill for each payment method used. If you suspect you have been charged twice for the same amount and date, contact Pearl + Co with details of each transaction so they can check their point‑of‑sale records and arrange a correction if needed.

How do I get a copy of my receipt or tax invoice from Pearl + Co?

If you need a receipt or tax invoice, contact Pearl + Co directly using the phone number or email listed on pearlandco.com.au and provide the date and approximate time of your visit, the card type, and the amount charged. If the booking was made under your name, include the name on the reservation as well. The venue can typically reprint or email an invoice from their point‑of‑sale system once they locate your transaction.

How can I resolve a charge for a booking or event I don’t recognise at Pearl + Co?

First, check whether someone in your group, family, or workplace used your card to secure a reservation, event, or group tab at Pearl + Co. Look through your emails and any restaurant booking apps for confirmations that might explain the charge. If you still don’t recognise it, contact Pearl + Co with the transaction date and amount so they can verify whether it relates to a booking or function in your name or using your card details. If the venue confirms the charge is not linked to you, contact your bank or card issuer to report a possible unauthorised transaction.

Does Pearl + Co offer deposits or prepayments for group bookings, and how do those appear on my statement?

For larger groups or special events, Pearl + Co or a third‑party booking platform may require a deposit or credit card guarantee. These amounts usually appear as a single charge around the time you made the booking and may be credited toward your final bill or forfeited according to the booking terms if you cancel late or don’t show up. The descriptor on your statement should reference Pearl + Co or the booking platform used; check your booking confirmation email for exact details of deposit amounts and conditions.

How do I request a refund or correction for a Pearl + Co charge I believe is incorrect?

Contact Pearl + Co directly as soon as you notice a potential error, ideally with a screenshot or exact details of the transaction (date, amount, and the last four digits of your card). The team can review their till and booking records to confirm what was charged and, if a mistake is found, process a refund or adjustment back to your original payment method. Keep in mind that refunds can take several business days to appear on your statement, depending on your bank. If you cannot resolve the issue with the venue, follow your bank or card issuer’s process to dispute the transaction.

What should I do if I see a Pearl + Co charge from a date when I wasn’t in Hobart?

If the transaction date doesn’t match any time you could reasonably have visited Hobart or dined at Pearl + Co, treat the charge as potentially unauthorised. Check for any saved cards in booking apps or with colleagues who might have had access to your card details, then contact Pearl + Co with the transaction information to see if they can identify who made the booking or payment. If they confirm it doesn’t match your details, immediately report the charge to your bank or card issuer so they can secure your account, investigate, and issue a replacement card if necessary.
