About Donna's Empanadas

Donna's Empanadas appears to be a small, local food business focused on handmade empanadas and possibly other Latin-inspired prepared foods. The merchant descriptor you shared includes “Cherry Hill,” which suggests the business is based in or regularly operates in the Cherry Hill, New Jersey area. Unlike larger chains or well-documented restaurants, there is no clear, standalone website or business directory profile that definitively matches “Donna's Empanadas,” which is typical for home-based caterers, pop‑up vendors, or very small food operations.

A charge from Donna's Empanadas on your card statement likely comes from purchasing empanadas or similar food items at a local event, pop‑up market, catering order, small café, or food stand, with payment processed through Square (indicated by the “SQ” prefix). These are usually one‑time charges, but in some cases, you might see multiple similar amounts if you made several purchases at different times or if a catering order was split into deposits and final payments.

Because this appears to be a very small, locally focused business with limited online footprint, resolving questions about the charge generally requires going back to where you made the purchase. Check your recent receipts, text or email confirmations from any food events or caterers around the date of the charge, and any Square e‑receipts you may have received. If you still have questions, you can reply to the Square e‑receipt (if available) or contact your bank to ask for the exact transaction timestamp and any additional merchant contact details they can see on their side; those details can help you match the charge to a specific visit or event.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement say “SQ DONNA S EMPANADAS CHERRY HILL”?

The “SQ” prefix indicates the payment was processed by Square, a common point‑of‑sale system. The actual merchant is “Donna's Empanadas,” a small food business likely operating in or around Cherry Hill, New Jersey. The city name appears because that is where the seller’s Square account is registered or where the transaction took place.

Is Donna's Empanadas a restaurant or a food truck/pop‑up?

Available online information suggests this is a very small, local operation rather than a large, fixed‑location restaurant chain. It may operate as a pop‑up vendor, caterer, or food stand using Square for payments. Because there is no clear public listing, you should rely on your memory of recent events (markets, festivals, school or community events) where empanadas were sold.

Could this Donna's Empanadas charge be a recurring subscription or membership?

It is very unlikely. Small food vendors using Square almost always process one‑time sales, not recurring subscriptions. If you see more than one charge, it’s more likely that you made multiple purchases on different dates or that a catering order involved a deposit and a final payment.

How can I get a receipt or more details for my Donna's Empanadas purchase?

If you entered an email or phone number at checkout, Square may have sent you a digital receipt—search your email or text messages around the transaction date for “Square” or “Donna's Empanadas.” You can also check any event confirmations or catering emails from that time to match the amount and date.

How do I contact Donna's Empanadas about a refund or incorrect charge?

Because this appears to be a very small business with no easily found website, your best options are: (1) locate the Square e‑receipt and use any reply or contact link shown there, or (2) ask your bank or card issuer to provide any additional merchant contact info attached to the transaction, such as a phone number. If you made the purchase at a recurring market or venue, you can also contact the event organizer, who may be able to connect you with the vendor.

Why do I see two similar Donna's Empanadas charges on the same day?

This can happen if you ran your card twice (for example, adding more items later) or if one transaction is an initial authorization and the other is the final captured amount. Authorizations sometimes appear as separate pending lines but typically drop off within a few days, leaving only the settled charge.

What should I do if I don’t recognize this Donna's Empanadas charge at all?

First, review your calendar and messages around the charge date for any local events, markets, school functions, or catering orders where you may have bought food from a small empanada vendor. If you still cannot match it, contact your bank or card issuer, ask them for the exact time and any extra merchant data, and, if necessary, dispute the transaction as unrecognized so they can investigate.
