About ESPL Coffee Pty Ltd

ESPL Coffee Pty Ltd was an Australian proprietary company associated with ESPL Coffee / ESPL Coffee Brewers, a small specialty café located on the ground floor of Soul Boardwalk at 4 The Esplanade, Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia. The venue is known for Grade A specialty coffee, its own ESPL-branded blend, and beachside views directly opposite Surfers Paradise Beach, along with pastries, sourdough croissants, toasties, sandwiches, and snacks. The café typically operates daily from early morning (around 5:30–6:00 a.m.) through the afternoon and promotes itself primarily via its Facebook page and local listings rather than a standalone website.([soulboardwalk.com.au](https://www.soulboardwalk.com.au/espl-coffee/?utm_source=openai))

A charge from “ESPL COFFEE PTY LTD” (or a similar descriptor such as “ESPL COFFEE BREWERS SURFERS PARADISE AUS” or “ESPL COFFEE GOLD COAST”) on your bank or card statement is most likely from an in-person purchase at this café, such as coffee, breakfast, a pastry, or café merchandise like hats or shirts. Typical spend per person is in the roughly AU$1–20 range, with individual coffees around AU$5–7 and food items or multiple drinks resulting in higher totals, so you may see one or several small- to medium-sized charges rather than a single large one. ESPL Coffee does not advertise subscription plans or ongoing memberships; recurring or repeated charges usually reflect multiple visits, a group order, or a saved card used via a mobile wallet during your stay in or visit to Surfers Paradise.([tikihotel.com.au](https://www.tikihotel.com.au/cafe-surfers-paradise?utm_source=openai))

To verify an ESPL Coffee charge, first match the transaction date and amount with any visit you or a family member might have made to Surfers Paradise or Soul Boardwalk, and check receipts, email confirmations, or your mobile wallet history (Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.). If you still have questions, you can contact the café directly by phone at +61 413 035 107 (or the alternate number +61 419 247 686 listed on some directories), or send a message via their ESPL Coffee Facebook page, providing the date, exact amount, and the last four digits of the card used so they can look it up in their point-of-sale system.([surfersparadiselocal.com](https://www.surfersparadiselocal.com/2017/01/espl-coffee-brewers.html?utm_source=openai)) If the business cannot locate the transaction or you suspect fraud, you should immediately contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the charge and request a new card if necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of purchases usually result in an ESPL Coffee Pty Ltd charge on my statement?

Most ESPL Coffee charges come from in-person purchases at their café in Soul Boardwalk, Surfers Paradise, such as espresso drinks, specialty coffees, breakfast items, pastries, toasties, and snacks. In some cases, the total may also include merchandise like ESPL-branded hats or shirts, or multiple items ordered for a group in a single transaction.([soulboardwalk.com.au](https://www.soulboardwalk.com.au/espl-coffee/?utm_source=openai))

Does ESPL Coffee offer subscriptions or recurring billing?

ESPL Coffee operates as a walk-in café and does not promote any subscription coffee plans, online memberships, or automatic recurring billing. If you see several ESPL Coffee charges over a period of days, it is almost certainly due to multiple visits or repeated use of a stored card in a mobile wallet, not a formal subscription. If the pattern looks unfamiliar or continues after you’ve left the area, contact both the café and your bank to rule out unauthorized use.

What are common amounts I might see for an ESPL Coffee charge?

Directory and review sites indicate that a typical spend at ESPL Coffee is roughly AU$1–20 per person, with individual coffees often in the AU$5–7 range and food items or combos increasing the total.([tikihotel.com.au](https://www.tikihotel.com.au/cafe-surfers-paradise?utm_source=openai)) You might see a single small charge for just a drink, a mid-range amount for coffee plus food, or a larger total if you paid for several people or purchased merchandise.

Can ESPL Coffee place a temporary authorization hold on my card?

Like many cafés using modern point-of-sale systems, ESPL Coffee’s payment processor may briefly place an authorization hold when you tap or insert your card, especially for contactless or mobile wallet payments. In most cases the pending amount will match or slightly exceed the final bill and then settle to the actual purchase amount within a few business days. If a higher pending amount doesn’t fall away or adjust correctly, contact your bank and, if possible, provide the café with a copy of the statement line so they can verify it in their terminal records.

How do I contact ESPL Coffee about a charge I don’t recognize?

You can call the café directly on +61 413 035 107 (Australian number; add your international dialing prefix if calling from overseas).([surfersparadiselocal.com](https://www.surfersparadiselocal.com/2017/01/espl-coffee-brewers.html?utm_source=openai)) Have the date of the transaction, the exact amount, the currency, and the last four digits of the card ready so staff can search their point-of-sale history. If you cannot reach them by phone, try sending a message via the ESPL Coffee Facebook page linked from local directory listings, or contact your bank to open a dispute while the charge is investigated.

I was in Surfers Paradise on holiday—why do I see an ESPL Coffee charge days later?

Card networks sometimes take one to several business days to finalize and post international or cross-border transactions, so a charge from your holiday stop at ESPL Coffee may appear on your statement after you’ve already left Australia. Check your travel dates, time zone differences, and any receipts or mobile wallet logs from around the time you visited Soul Boardwalk. If the date or amount still doesn’t line up with your stay, reach out to the café and your card issuer to confirm the details.

How can I get a refund or correction for an incorrect ESPL Coffee charge?

If you believe you were double-charged, charged the wrong amount, or billed for items you didn’t receive, contact ESPL Coffee as soon as possible with your receipt or a screenshot of the statement line and details of what you ordered. In many cases, small hospitality venues can process a refund or adjustment through the same terminal used for the original transaction. If you can’t resolve it directly with the café or you are outside Australia and unable to reach them, file a dispute with your bank or card issuer, who can investigate under their chargeback policies.

Why does the statement say ESPL Coffee Pty Ltd if the company status shows as deregistered online?

Some business databases list ESPL Coffee Pty Ltd as a deregistered corporate entity, but payment descriptors and trading names can remain in use or be slow to update when ownership structures change.([australia-corp.com](https://australia-corp.com/co/espl-coffee-pty-ltd?utm_source=openai)) A charge on your statement with this name is still most likely tied to the currently operating ESPL Coffee café at Soul Boardwalk. If you’re unsure who processed your payment, contact the café directly and your bank can also confirm which merchant terminal accepted the transaction.
