BOOKING POLICIES
Reservations &
Private Events
Private Events & Group Bookings
Our private event spaces are curated for premium experiences. To secure your desired date and ensure seamless preparation, specific timelines and deposit structures are required for all large-scale bookings.
Booking Deposits & Cancellations
A non-refundable deposit is required to confirm all private events. Cancellations made more than 14 days prior to the event date may be eligible to have the deposit transferred to a rescheduled date. Cancellations within 14 days of the event will result in forfeiture of the deposit to cover preparatory costs.
Force Majeure & Vendor Variations
BrewAura Cafe is not liable for service interruptions caused by unforeseeable events outside our control (Force Majeure), including natural disasters or utility outages. In the event an approved third-party vendor cancels, we will assist in sourcing an alternative, but no refunds will be issued for the venue booking due to external vendor failures.
Standard Reservations
Guidelines for daily dining reservations to ensure a fair experience for all guests.
- Deposits: Required for parties of 6 or more to secure the table.
- Late Cancellations: Notice is required at least 24 hours prior to avoid fees.
- No-Shows: Failure to arrive will result in complete forfeiture of the deposit.
- Grace Period: Tables are held for a strict 15 minutes past the reservation time.
- Rescheduling: Permitted once without penalty if requested 24 hours in advance.

We stand behind the quality of our artisanal merchandise. If your BrewAura gear arrives with a manufacturing defect or quality issue, we provide a straightforward review and exchange process.

Payment Failures & Duplicate Transactions
In the event of a duplicate payment or an unforeseen transaction failure, BrewAura Cafe conducts a thorough verification process. Duplicate charges resulting from system timeouts or network errors will be reversed immediately upon verification. For failed transactions where funds have been debited from your account but the order is not confirmed, please allow standard banking timelines for the pending refund to reflect in your original payment method.
Exceptional Circumstances
We understand that life is unpredictable. Refunds or rescheduling may be granted outside our standard policy framework in cases of severe medical emergencies, documented natural disasters, unforeseen government restrictions, or sudden business closures. Technical failures on our end that prevent the delivery of services will automatically qualify for a full refund or equivalent store credit.
Customer & Business Responsibilities
A seamless experience requires cooperation. Customers are responsible for providing accurate order information, explicitly disclosing food allergies before preparation, and promptly reporting any issues with accompanying proof of purchase. In turn, BrewAura Cafe is steadfastly committed to maintaining exceptional food quality, conducting fair and swift investigations into any discrepancies, and providing professional, timely communication throughout the resolution process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers regarding our refund procedures, membership terms, and service policies to ensure complete transparency.
Can I cancel my membership and get a refund?
If you have not yet redeemed any coffees from your BrewAura Coffee Community membership, you are eligible for a full refund within the specified cooling-off period. Once any benefits have been used, the membership becomes non-refundable, as permitted by applicable law.
Can I get a refund for unused coffees on my membership?
Unused coffees within your 10-coffee membership plan do not roll over or qualify for partial refunds once the validity period expires. We recommend utilizing all benefits before the expiration date.
What happens if I am charged twice or experience a payment error?
In the rare event of a duplicate charge or failed transaction where funds were deducted, our team will verify the payment log. Verified duplicate payments are fully refunded to the original payment method within standard processing timelines.
How long does it take to process an approved refund?
Once our team reviews and approves your refund request, it typically takes 5–7 business days for the funds to reflect in your account, depending entirely on your bank or payment provider's processing speeds.
What happens to my membership if there is a service interruption?
If BrewAura Cafe experiences prolonged, unforeseen business closures or severe service interruptions (such as extreme weather or technical failures), we will proactively extend membership validities or evaluate fair compensations on a case-by-case basis.
What if my coffee order was prepared incorrectly?
We pride ourselves on our quality commitment. If your order was prepared incorrectly or there was a genuine quality issue, please notify our barista immediately or contact support for online orders. We will happily replace the item or issue store credit.
Disclaimer: This Refund Policy is intended as a general business policy template and should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel to ensure compliance with local consumer protection laws, hospitality regulations, payment provider requirements, and applicable laws in the jurisdictions where BrewAura Cafe operates.
