Margaret River Gourmet Trail: Artisan Chocolate, Cheese & Craft Spirits

Follow a curated trail of the region's finest artisan food producers — hand-crafting single-origin chocolates, farmhouse cheeses, berry wines, and small-batch spirits. This is the edible soul of Margaret River, away from the cellar-door crowds.

What to expect

Begin at The Grove Distillery & Brewery, rated one of Margaret River's top experiences, where the distiller guides you through a tasting of hand-crafted gin, whisky, and craft beer made from local ingredients in a stunning bush setting. Continue to the Margaret River Chocolate Company for a guided bean-to-bar tasting of single-origin couverture chocolates. Stop at The Berry Farm, a beloved working farm producing berry wines, jams, and sweets in an orchard setting perfect for a long, lazy dessert lunch. At Scoops Farm or a local cheesery, sample farmhouse varieties with sourdough fresh from a wood-fired oven. Every stop is a conversation with a maker.

Booking
We have not yet verified a bookable operator and price for this one.

Good to know

Most producers are clustered within a 20-km radius of Margaret River town — a private hire car or guided food tour (bookable via margaretriver.com) keeps the day efficient and leisurely. Allow 5–6 hours for the full circuit. Most tasting rooms open from 10am; check seasonal hours for The Berry Farm. This experience pairs beautifully as a half-day complement to a morning wine tour.
