About CF Courtside Cafe

CF Courtside Cafe appears to be the in‑house cafe at Chestnut Forks Tennis & Fitness, a long‑running, family‑owned tennis, fitness, and swim club in Warrenton, Virginia. The club’s materials and local business listings reference a “Courtside Cafe” alongside its tennis, fitness, and pool facilities, and a publicly available menu file is titled “CF Courtside Cafe Menu,” which strongly suggests that CF Courtside Cafe is the food service operation within the Chestnut Forks complex. The menu features deli sandwiches, soups, salads, wraps, and flatbread pizza, along with beer and wine, geared toward members and visitors using the sports facilities.

A charge labeled “CF courtside” on a Visa statement is likely from a food and beverage purchase at this on‑site cafe – for example, lunch during tennis or pickleball play, a snack after using the gym or pool, or catering during a club event. Because small in‑facility cafes often share or abbreviate their merchant names in payment systems, the descriptor may truncate the full name (e.g., “CF COURTSIDE CAFE”) down to “CF COURTSIDE,” which is what you’re seeing. Single, irregular amounts are typical for one‑off meals, while repeat charges might reflect a member frequently dining at the club after activities.

If you need to verify the charge, start by checking any recent visits to Chestnut Forks or participation in tennis, fitness, or swim activities in Warrenton, Virginia, around the transaction date. Look for itemized receipts or email confirmations from the club. To resolve questions, you can contact Chestnut Forks Tennis & Fitness directly via the phone or email listed on their official site or local chamber listing and ask for the Courtside Cafe manager or billing staff; provide the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card so they can look it up. If the club cannot locate the charge or you’ve never visited, contact your card issuer to dispute it and request a new card number in case of card‑number compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did I get a charge from “CF courtside” on my card?

A “CF courtside” charge is most likely from CF Courtside Cafe, the in‑house cafe at Chestnut Forks Tennis & Fitness in Warrenton, Virginia. The descriptor is probably a shortened form of “CF Courtside Cafe” used by their payment terminal when you purchased food or drinks at the club’s cafe.

What kinds of purchases typically show up as CF Courtside Cafe charges?

Could a recurring CF courtside charge indicate a membership or subscription?

CF Courtside Cafe itself is a food service outlet, so most charges are one‑off for meals. However, if you visit Chestnut Forks regularly, you might see frequent charges that look recurring simply because you habitually eat at the cafe after using the club. True recurring, same‑day‑each‑month billing is more likely tied to club membership dues rather than the cafe; check with Chestnut Forks if you see a perfectly regular pattern.

How can I cancel or stop future CF Courtside Cafe charges?

There is no formal “subscription” to CF Courtside Cafe—charges occur only when you authorize a payment at the cafe or if food is linked to your member account. To avoid future charges, don’t put food purchases on file with the club, and ensure no family members or authorized users are charging items at the cafe under your account. If you suspect unauthorized use, ask Chestnut Forks to review your member account and consider removing charging privileges.

How do I request a refund for a CF Courtside Cafe transaction?

To request a refund, contact Chestnut Forks Tennis & Fitness and ask for the Courtside Cafe or front‑desk manager. Provide the transaction date, amount, and last four digits of your card, along with an explanation (incorrect amount, duplicate charge, wrong item, etc.). If they approve a refund, it will usually appear as a separate credit on your card statement within several business days, labeled similarly to the original “CF courtside” charge.

How can I contact CF Courtside Cafe about a billing question?

Because CF Courtside Cafe operates inside Chestnut Forks Tennis & Fitness, you should use the club’s main contact information from their official website or local business listings and request to speak with someone regarding Courtside Cafe billing. Calling during normal club hours and having your statement, date, and exact charge amount ready will help them locate your transaction quickly.

Why does the descriptor say “CF courtside” instead of “Chestnut Forks” or “Courtside Cafe”?

Small merchants often configure a short, custom merchant name for their card terminal. In this case, the cafe appears to use an internal branding of “CF Courtside Cafe,” and the processor may truncate that to fit character limits, resulting in “CF courtside” on your statement. This is common with in‑facility cafes and doesn’t affect the legitimacy of the charge.

What should I do if I don’t recognize any visit to Chestnut Forks or CF Courtside Cafe?

First, confirm with household members or anyone else who may use your card that they didn’t visit Chestnut Forks or its cafe. If no one recognizes the transaction and the cafe cannot locate a corresponding purchase under your name or card details, treat the charge as potentially fraudulent. Contact your card issuer immediately to dispute the transaction and ask for a replacement card number to prevent additional unauthorized charges.
