Pre-Reservations Requested - Unfortunately,
or should I say fortunately, BRM is getting too popular and with just
Dick and I left to run things, we decided to make some "major
corporate" decisions. Starting in 2008, we will be catering
mainly to pre-reserved clientele, unreserved persons please note, that
you take your chances as to availability of services. This
includes service in the restaurant, as over the last two years we have
found that we have been catering to more and more large groups which
often necessitated the closing of the restaurant to the general
public. So, if possible, please contact us to make your
reservations for any and all required services, no matter how trivial.
Due to the high cost of doing business with plastic, Bear
River Mercantile is slowly changing over to good old fashioned paper. Payments
for bookings and services will mainly be accepted as cash, cheques,
travelers cheques and money orders. For 2008, VISA and MasterCard will still be
excepted as a last resort. More details for payment is listed in each service
category.
