About Matty & Johns Espresso Bar

Matty & Johns Espresso Bar is a small, specialty coffee café located in Camperdown, NSW, Australia. Known as a local “hole‑in‑the‑wall” spot, it focuses on high‑quality espresso drinks, batch and pour‑over coffee, and a simple menu of breakfast and lunch items geared toward workers, students, and hospital visitors in the area. On weekdays, they typically serve items like toasties, pastries, light meals, and grab‑and‑go options alongside their coffee. Payments are usually taken in‑store via EFTPOS terminals or contactless card and digital wallet payments.

A charge from “Matty & Johns Espresso Bar,” or a similar description, usually appears on your bank or card statement when you’ve made an in‑person purchase at the café—such as a coffee, snack, or a meal. The amount is typically a one‑time transaction that reflects the total of your order, and it may appear alongside the payment processor’s name if they use a third‑party terminal. In some cases, you may see a small “pending” or “pre‑authorisation” amount if the terminal briefly verifies your card before finalising the sale; this should automatically drop off once the actual charge posts.

If you’re unsure about a Matty & Johns Espresso Bar charge, first check recent weekday visits to Camperdown and look for café or coffee receipts from the same day and amount. The business name on your receipt may match or closely resemble the statement description. To resolve questions, you can visit the café in person during their weekday opening hours and speak with a staff member, or use the contact details listed on your receipt or on their website (via georgegregan.com’s contact or locations pages). They can help you confirm the transaction, reprint a receipt, correct duplicate charges, or advise you on how to proceed with your bank if you still don’t recognise the payment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from Matty & Johns Espresso Bar on my statement if I don’t remember going there?

Matty & Johns Espresso Bar is a weekday café in Camperdown, so this charge often corresponds to a coffee or meal purchased while you were in the area for work, study, hospital visits, or appointments. Check your calendar, maps history, or receipts from that day—many customers forget small tap‑and‑go coffee purchases. The statement description may also include the payment processor’s name, which can make it look unfamiliar even though it’s a standard café transaction.

Does Matty & Johns Espresso Bar run subscriptions or recurring charges for coffee or meals?

No, Matty & Johns Espresso Bar generally processes one‑time, in‑person payments for each visit. They do not typically offer subscription or membership billing, so any repeated charges are likely from separate visits on different days. If you see multiple charges on the same day you visited, check whether they correspond to multiple orders (for example, a morning coffee and a later lunch).

What are typical charge amounts I might see from Matty & Johns Espresso Bar?

Common transaction amounts usually reflect café pricing—for example, single coffees, pastries, or light meals, which may range from a few dollars for a drink to higher totals for multiple items or shout‑rounds for a group. Larger amounts may indicate that you paid for several people or purchased both food and drinks. If the amount seems higher than expected, compare it to your printed or emailed receipt if you requested one at the time of purchase.

Why is there a small pending or $1–$5 charge from Matty & Johns Espresso Bar that later disappears?

Some EFTPOS or contactless payment terminals place a small pre‑authorisation hold when a card is first tapped or inserted. This temporary amount is used to verify your card and is automatically reversed once the real transaction posts. You should see the final café charge settle separately, and the small pending authorisation should drop off within a few business days.

How can I get a copy of a receipt or clarify a specific charge from Matty & Johns Espresso Bar?

The fastest way is to visit the café in Camperdown during weekday trading hours and bring your bank statement showing the date, exact amount, and last four digits of the card. Staff can usually look up transactions from their EFTPOS terminal records and provide a reprinted receipt or confirm what was purchased. If you can’t visit in person, use the contact options listed on georgegregan.com (such as a contact form or location details) and include the transaction date, amount, and your contact information.

How do I dispute or correct a mistaken or duplicate charge from Matty & Johns Espresso Bar?

First, contact the café directly—in person or using the contact details printed on your receipt or available through georgegregan.com—and explain the issue with the date, time, and exact amount. In many cases, they can confirm whether a duplicate payment went through and process a refund back to your card. If you’re unable to resolve it with the café, contact your bank or card issuer and lodge a dispute, providing any receipts or correspondence as evidence.

Can I get a refund if I was incorrectly charged or charged the wrong amount at Matty & Johns Espresso Bar?

If there was a clear error—such as being charged twice or charged an incorrect amount—Matty & Johns Espresso Bar can typically process a refund through the same card terminal used for the original transaction. You’ll usually need proof of purchase or at least the transaction details from your statement. Refunds are returned to the original payment method and may take a few business days to appear, depending on your bank.
