Experiences

Margaret River experiences.

Chocolate, coffee, wine and a very good pantry, all within a few hundred metres of each other in Metricup. Taste a little of everything, or pick one and do it properly.

Taste, make, discover

Something for every palate. From first taste to masterclass.

This is where it all began, in a tin shed on a working dairy farm at Metricup in May 1999. Today the chocolate factory sits a few hundred metres from Providore, home to the Coward & Black cellar door and The Margaret River Coffee Company roastery. Start with a free tasting, settle in for a class, or give the whole day to the Ultimate Taste.

Featured experience

Ultimate Taste of Margaret River

Our signature experience, and the whole farm in one sitting. Coffee and chocolate tastings, a wander past the garden and the chooks, sparkling in the vines, a full wine tasting, then a light lunch with a glass of wine. You leave with a goodie bag and 10% off your purchases.

Questions

Experience questions.

Do I need to book in advance?

Not for tastings. Entry and tastings are free at the chocolate factory and at Providore, 9am–5pm daily. For classes, masterclasses and the Ultimate Taste, book ahead as they tend to book up quickly.

Can I combine experiences in one visit?

Easily. The chocolate factory at 415 Harmans Mill Road and Providore at 448 Tom Cullity Drive are a few hundred metres apart. Book a class at one, then wander over for a tasting at the other.

Are experiences suitable for children?

The Junior Chocolatier Class is designed for ages 6 and up, and the café, free tastings and viewing window keep everyone happy. 

Do you cater for dietary requirements?

Allergens are listed on every product, but nuts are handled in our kitchens and cafés, so cross-contact may occur.
