About Sol Bakery & Cafe

Sol Bakery & Cafe was a local organic bakery and coffee shop located in West End, Brisbane, operating under the broader Sol Bakery/Sol Breads brand in Queensland. Known for its plant-based and vegetarian-friendly menu, the cafe specialised in handcrafted sourdough breads, organic pastries, light meals, and specialty espresso coffee made from quality beans. As part of the Sol Breads brand, the venue focused on organic ingredients, slow-fermented bread, and environmentally conscious practices, serving both dine‑in customers and takeaway orders.

A charge from “Sol Bakery & Cafe,” “Sol Breads,” or a similar description on your bank statement will almost always relate to a food and beverage purchase at their West End cafe or another Sol-branded outlet, or to a takeaway/phone order you placed. These are typically one‑time point‑of‑sale card payments, but you may also see small pre‑authorisation amounts (for example, when a card is first tapped/inserted or for tips adjustments) that later settle for the final amount. In some cases, online or phone orders processed through a Sol Breads/Sol Bakery payment terminal, or third‑party delivery platforms (like Uber Eats or similar) may also appear on your statement under a Sol Bakery/Sol Breads descriptor.

If you’re unsure about a Sol Bakery & Cafe charge, start by checking your calendar, email receipts, and food delivery app history for the date of the transaction to confirm if you purchased food, coffee, bread, or catering. Compare the exact amount with what you’d typically spend on a cafe visit (for example, coffee plus a meal or takeaway bread). If you still don’t recognise the charge, visit sol-bakery.com to find current contact details and reach out via phone or email with the date, time, and amount of the transaction so they can look it up on their point‑of‑sale system. If the cafe has since closed or changed ownership and you cannot contact them directly, you can ask your bank to provide more details about the merchant ID and, if necessary, dispute the transaction as unauthorised.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from Sol Bakery & Cafe or Sol Breads on my bank statement?

This charge usually comes from a purchase made at Sol Bakery & Cafe in West End or another Sol-branded bakery outlet in Queensland. It may be for coffee, a meal, takeaway breads/pastries, or a catering/large bread order processed through their card terminal. Food delivery orders fulfilled by Sol and paid via card can also display under a Sol Bakery or Sol Breads descriptor on your statement.

What are the typical amounts I might be charged by Sol Bakery & Cafe?

Most individual cafe transactions are in the range you’d expect for a specialty coffee shop—often from a few dollars for a single coffee up to several tens of dollars for multiple coffees, meals, or bread loaves. Larger amounts may reflect group orders, catering, or bulk bread purchases. If you see a Sol Bakery charge that is much higher than a standard cafe visit, review whether you placed any catering or bulk orders around that date.

Does Sol Bakery & Cafe offer subscriptions or recurring billing?

Sol Bakery & Cafe operated primarily as a walk‑in retail cafe and bakery, so charges are typically one‑time transactions rather than subscriptions. If you notice what looks like a recurring charge, it may be due to you regularly visiting on similar days (for example, a weekly coffee/bread routine) or standing catering orders processed on a schedule. If you suspect an actual recurring bill that you didn’t agree to, contact Sol via the details on sol-bakery.com or speak with your bank.

Why do I see a small or duplicate Sol Bakery charge, or a pending amount that later changes?

Small or duplicate-looking charges can be the result of card pre‑authorisations or reversals on the cafe’s payment terminal. When you tap or insert your card, the system may place a temporary hold that later settles for the correct final amount, with the initial hold dropping off after a few business days. If a pending Sol Bakery transaction doesn’t clear or you see both the hold and the final charge posted, contact your bank and, if possible, provide Sol with the exact date, time, and amount for review.

How can I get a receipt or tax invoice for a Sol Bakery & Cafe transaction?

If you paid in person, the staff would normally be able to issue a printed EFTPOS receipt at the time of purchase; for phone or special orders, they may email a receipt on request. If you need a copy after the fact, use your statement details (date, amount, and last four digits of your card) and reach out via the contact information on sol-bakery.com or the broader Sol Breads website so they can search their point‑of‑sale records. Keep in mind that older transactions may be harder to retrieve if significant time has passed or the cafe has since closed.

How do I resolve a charge I don’t recognise from Sol Bakery & Cafe?

First, confirm with family members or colleagues who may share your card or account whether they visited Sol Bakery & Cafe or another Sol Breads outlet on that date. Next, check any food delivery apps or order confirmations linked to your email or phone. If no one recognises the transaction, contact Sol using the details listed on sol-bakery.com (or the main Sol Breads contact), provide the transaction information, and ask them to investigate. If you cannot reach the merchant or still believe the charge is fraudulent, contact your bank to dispute it.

Can I get a refund for a Sol Bakery & Cafe charge if there was a billing error?

If you were overcharged, charged twice, or charged after a failed transaction at Sol Bakery & Cafe, refunds are usually handled directly by the cafe or the broader Sol Breads team through their payment terminal or back‑office system. Gather evidence such as receipts, bank screenshots, or till slips and contact them as soon as possible so they can locate the transaction and process a refund or adjustment if appropriate. If you cannot obtain a resolution from the merchant, your bank may be able to assist via a chargeback for incorrect or duplicate billing.

How can I contact Sol Bakery or Sol Breads about a card charge?

Visit sol-bakery.com or search for “Sol Breads Queensland” to find current contact details, which typically include a phone number, email address, and sometimes a contact form. Provide specific information about the transaction—date, approximate time, exact amount, and the name shown on your card—so they can locate it in their system. If the West End cafe has closed, the main Sol Breads bakery operation can often still help clarify historical charges processed under their merchant account.
