About ESP Espresso

They focus on specialty coffee drinks made from quality beans, along with a rotating selection of teas, cold beverages, and light food such as breakfast items, pastries, and snacks.

A charge from ESP Espresso will usually appear on your bank or card statement after you purchase coffee, food, or takeaway items at their Grafton café. Most charges are one‑time point‑of‑sale transactions, but you might also see a charge related to purchasing a gift card, paying a deposit for a small catering order, or settling a tab that was kept open. Depending on your bank, the charge description may include variations of their name (such as “ESP ESPRESSO GRAFTON NSW” or similar) and can sometimes first appear as a pending or pre‑authorized amount before it finalizes.

If you don’t recognize a charge, start by checking your recent visits to Grafton and any coffee or food purchases made around the transaction date. Look for receipts in your email, wallet, or banking app, and compare the amount to typical café purchases. For clarification, you can contact ESP Espresso through their Facebook page (facebook.com/ESPespresso) using Messenger, or by visiting the café in person during business hours; bring the date, exact amount, and the last four digits of the card used. For suspected card fraud, contact your bank or card issuer immediately to dispute the transaction and request a new card if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from ESP Espresso on my card statement?

This charge is typically from an in‑person purchase of coffee, food, or snacks made at ESP Espresso’s café in Grafton, NSW. Check if you recently bought takeaway coffee, breakfast, or a snack in that area, or if someone in your household used your card for a purchase there. The description might include “ESP Espresso,” “ESP ESPRESSO GRAFTON,” or a similar variation depending on your bank.

Does ESP Espresso offer subscriptions or recurring billing for coffee?

ESP Espresso primarily operates as a walk‑in café with one‑time, per‑visit charges. They do not commonly run automatic monthly coffee subscriptions or recurring billing directly to your card. If you see repeated charges, review whether you’re making frequent visits, using a saved card through a delivery service, or if someone else with access to your card is using it there.

Why is there a small or duplicate ESP Espresso amount showing as ‘pending’?

Some banks temporarily show card payments from cafés and small businesses as ‘pending’ or ‘authorisation’ charges before they finalize. In rare cases, you might briefly see a duplicate pending line that later corrects to a single completed transaction. These authorisations usually adjust themselves within a few business days; if a duplicate remains after that, contact your bank and then follow up with ESP Espresso with your receipt details.

What are typical charge amounts from ESP Espresso?

Common charges from ESP Espresso often reflect everyday café pricing—such as a few dollars for a coffee, and higher amounts if you purchased multiple drinks, breakfast dishes, or takeaway food. Larger totals may be from shout rounds (group orders), small catering orders, or buying beans or gift cards. If the amount seems higher than a simple coffee, think back to whether you treated others, ordered food as well, or visited more than once in a day.

How can I get a copy of my receipt or verify a payment with ESP Espresso?

If you paid in person, receipts are usually provided on request at the time of purchase; some terminals can also resend or reprint a receipt if you return with the transaction date, approximate time, and the last four digits of your card. To check a past payment, contact ESP Espresso via Facebook Messenger at facebook.com/ESPespresso or visit the café and show them your bank statement line. They can compare the amount and timestamp against their till records to confirm the transaction.

How do I resolve an incorrect or unfamiliar charge from ESP Espresso?

First, compare the date and amount with your own calendar—consider any visits to Grafton, takeaway orders picked up for work, or purchases made by family members using your card. If you still believe the charge is incorrect, reach out to ESP Espresso through their Facebook page or in person with the exact amount, date, and card type so they can review their records. For suspected fraud (for example, if your card was not in your possession at the time), contact your bank or card issuer immediately to report and dispute the charge.

Can I get a refund from ESP Espresso for a mistaken or double charge?

Refunds for mistaken or duplicate charges are handled directly by the café and are generally evaluated case by case. If you believe you were charged twice or charged the wrong amount, bring your bank statement line and any receipts back to ESP Espresso or message them via Facebook so staff can locate the transaction in their system. If a refund is processed, it may take a few business days to appear back on your card, depending on your bank.

I don’t live near Grafton, NSW—why would ESP Espresso appear on my statement?

If you haven’t been to Grafton or nearby areas recently, consider whether you passed through while traveling, or if someone else who had your card visited. Also check if your card details might have been compromised and used without your knowledge. In that case, contact your bank immediately to block the card and dispute the transaction, and you may optionally reach out to ESP Espresso with the transaction details so they’re aware of potential fraudulent activity.
