Blended Beard is an independent specialty coffee shop and café located in Docklands, Victoria, Australia. Known for its focus on high‑quality espresso and brew‑bar offerings, the café serves single‑origin and blended coffees, as well as a rotating selection of filter brews. Alongside coffee, Blended Beard typically offers light food such as pastries, toasties, and sliders, plus a small selection of cold drinks. You may encounter Blended Beard charges if you’ve visited the Docklands area or ordered from a local food delivery or ordering platform that partners with the café.
A Blended Beard charge can appear on your bank or card statement when you purchase coffee, food, beans, or merchandise in‑store, use their online ordering system (if available), or place an order via a third‑party delivery app. Charges are usually one‑time transactions for in‑store purchases, but you may also see multiple charges in a day if you split orders (for example, morning coffee and a later lunch snack). Some customers may see a small pre‑authorization or “pending” charge when a card is first tapped or stored in a mobile wallet, which is later adjusted to the final transaction total. If Blended Beard offers ongoing coffee bean deliveries or prepaid coffee passes, those may appear as recurring charges at regular intervals.
If you’re unsure about a Blended Beard charge, start by checking recent visits to Docklands, your food delivery apps, and email receipts from blendedbeard.com.au or their delivery partners. Compare the transaction date and amount with any coffee or food purchases you made around that time, including tips or surcharges that may increase the total. For questions, you can typically contact the café directly via the details listed on blendedbeard.com.au or by calling the store during business hours to confirm a specific transaction. If a charge still looks unfamiliar or appears duplicated, ask Blended Beard for a copy of the receipt, then contact your bank or card issuer to dispute any unauthorized transactions.

These are the raw merchant codes that appear on bank and credit card statements that we've identified as belonging to Blended Beard.
Why do I see a Blended Beard charge on my bank statement when I only bought a coffee and pastry?
Your Blended Beard total may include extras such as alternative milk surcharges, flavor add‑ons, public holiday surcharges, or a tip if you chose to add one. Some payment terminals also group multiple items (for example, coffee, pastry, and bottled water) into one line item on your statement. Review the date and amount and compare it with what you remember ordering—if the total is slightly higher than the base menu prices, it’s often due to these add‑ons.
Does Blended Beard offer subscriptions or recurring coffee charges?
Blended Beard primarily operates as a walk‑in café, so most charges are one‑off purchases. However, some specialty cafés offer recurring services such as coffee bean subscriptions, prepaid coffee cards, or office coffee deliveries. If you see a repeating Blended Beard charge (e.g., monthly or fortnightly), check your email for any subscription sign‑up confirmations or ask staff directly whether your name or card is associated with a recurring order.
Why is there a small pending or duplicate Blended Beard charge on my card?
Some payment processors place a temporary pre‑authorization hold when you tap or insert your card, especially for contactless or pay‑at‑counter systems. This can appear as a small or duplicate “pending” Blended Beard charge that later disappears or is replaced by the final amount. These holds usually clear automatically within a few business days; if a pending hold remains or posts as an extra charge, contact your bank and then reach out to Blended Beard with the exact date and amount for clarification.
How can I get a receipt or tax invoice for my Blended Beard purchase?
If you paid in‑store, you can request a reprinted receipt or tax invoice by visiting the café with the transaction date, approximate time, and last four digits of your card. If you ordered via a delivery app (such as Uber Eats, DoorDash, or similar), your receipt will typically be available in the order history section of that app. For business or GST invoices related to larger catering or bean purchases, use the contact details on blendedbeard.com.au to email the café with your company information and transaction details.
How do I request a refund or resolve an incorrect Blended Beard charge?
Start by contacting Blended Beard directly—either in person or via the phone or email listed on blendedbeard.com.au—and provide the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card. The café can review their point‑of‑sale records to check for overcharges, duplicate payments, or items rung up in error and may process a reversal or refund if warranted. If you believe the charge is fraudulent and they cannot locate it, notify your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction and block further use of your card.
Can I cancel or change a Blended Beard coffee order after I’ve paid?
Once an in‑store order has been made and preparation has started, cancellations or changes are at the café’s discretion, since ingredients and time may already have been used. If it’s an online or delivery‑app order, you may have a short window in the app to cancel or modify before the café accepts and begins making it. For catering or larger pre‑orders arranged directly with Blended Beard, refer to any confirmation email or ask them about their notice period and cancellation policy.
What are typical charge amounts I might see from Blended Beard?
Typical Blended Beard transactions might range from a small amount for a single espresso or long black, up to a higher total for multiple drinks, pastries, or sliders in a single order. If you see a larger‑than‑expected amount, consider whether you paid for multiple people, added food items, or included a tip or surcharge. Multiple visits in the same day will appear as separate Blended Beard line items on your bank statement.
