About Talulah

Talulah is a neighbourhood café and restaurant located in The Junction, Newcastle, NSW, Australia. Known for its relaxed, community-focused atmosphere, Talulah serves all-day breakfast and brunch alongside seasonal modern Australian dishes and specialty coffee. The menu typically features café classics with a contemporary twist, vegetarian and gluten-free options, house-made sweets, and a range of juices and alcoholic beverages. You can find opening hours, current menus, and booking information on their website at talulahcafe.com.au.

A Talulah charge on your bank or card statement usually relates to food and beverage purchases made in person at the restaurant, takeaway orders, or phone/online orders that have been processed through their in-house payment system. Charges may appear for a single visit, a group bill you paid on behalf of others, split-bill transactions, or a gift card purchase. You may also see separate charges for tips/gratuities added after the initial card authorization, public holiday/weekend surcharges, or adjustments if a pre-authorized amount (such as a bar tab or large group booking) was higher than your final bill.

If you’re unsure about a Talulah transaction, start by checking the date and amount against any visit you made to The Junction, receipts in your email or wallet, or photos/messages from that day (for example, brunch with friends). Review your banking app for the exact transaction time and description—charges may appear as “TALULAH THE JUNCTION,” “TALULAH CAFE NEWCASTLE,” or similar wording. For questions, contact Talulah using the details on talulahcafe.com.au or on your receipt; provide the transaction date, exact amount, and the last four digits of the card used so staff can look it up. If the charge still appears incorrect after speaking with the venue, you can then contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a Talulah charge on my statement when I only remember going for coffee?

At Talulah, even small transactions such as a single coffee, takeaway drink, or pastry will be processed as a standard card payment and appear as a separate charge. If you visited with others, your card may have been used to pay the entire bill or a split portion, which can make the total look higher than you remember from just your own items. Check your receipt or any group payment messages to confirm how the bill was divided.

What are typical amounts I might be charged by Talulah?

Talulah is a café and restaurant, so common transaction amounts range from around AUD $5–$10 for a single coffee or pastry, $20–$35 per person for breakfast or brunch with a drink, and higher totals for groups or meals including alcohol. Large or shared bills, special occasion bookings, or multiple takeaway items can result in charges of $60 or more. If the amount seems unusually high, it may reflect a group tab, tip, or surcharge added to the bill.

Why does my Talulah charge look higher than the amount I remember from the bill?

There are a few reasons the final charge from Talulah can be higher than the amount you recall: a public holiday or weekend surcharge, tips/gratuities added after the card was first inserted, or extra items ordered after your initial bill was printed. In some cases, you may have also paid for other people at the table or covered a bar tab. Compare your statement amount with the itemized receipt; if there is a discrepancy, contact the venue using the details on talulahcafe.com.au.

Can Talulah place an authorization hold or a pending charge on my card?

For most standard café and restaurant visits, Talulah will charge your card only for the final bill. However, if they open a tab or process a pre-authorization (for example, for a large group booking or function), you may see a pending amount on your statement that later adjusts to the final total. Any temporary hold that exceeds the final bill should drop off automatically within a few business days, depending on your bank’s processing times.

How do I get a copy of my receipt or tax invoice from Talulah?

If you need a receipt or tax invoice, first check whether you received a printed copy at the venue or an emailed receipt if you paid using a digital wallet or provided your email. If you no longer have it, contact Talulah via the contact details on talulahcafe.com.au or the phone number on your statement or previous receipt. Provide the exact transaction date, approximate time, amount, and last four digits of your card so they can locate and reissue the invoice.

How can I query or dispute a Talulah charge I don’t recognize?

Start by confirming whether you, a family member, or anyone with access to your card visited Talulah around the transaction date. If you still don’t recognize the charge, contact Talulah directly using the contact form or details listed on talulahcafe.com.au, and provide the transaction amount, date, and card details (last four digits only). If the venue cannot find a matching transaction or you believe the charge is fraudulent, immediately report it to your bank or card issuer to block your card and start a formal dispute.

Does Talulah store my card details or set up recurring payments?

Talulah operates as a café and restaurant and typically processes one-time payments at the point of sale; they do not normally run recurring subscriptions like a streaming or membership service. The only time your details might be associated with a repeat use is if you’ve saved your card in a third-party ordering app or digital wallet that you use at Talulah. If you see repeated charges, check whether a family member is using your stored card for visits, and then contact Talulah or your bank if anything appears unauthorized.

How can I contact Talulah about a billing or payment issue?

Visit talulahcafe.com.au to find current contact options, which typically include a phone number and an email address or contact form. You can also check your original receipt for direct contact details. When you reach out, include the transaction date, exact amount, the name on the card, and the last four digits of the card number so staff can quickly locate the payment and help resolve your query.
