About The Boy and the Rose

The Boy and the Rose is a beachside café located in North Avoca, New South Wales, Australia, known for specialty coffee, smoothie and acai bowls, and an all‑day breakfast and brunch menu.

A charge from “THE BOY AND THE ROSE,” “BOY & ROSE NORTH AVOCA,” or a similar description may appear on your bank statement when you’ve made an in‑person purchase at the café (for example, coffee, breakfast, brunch, takeaway items, or catering). Depending on your bank and card provider, you might see the charge dated the day after your visit, or grouped with other transactions if you tapped your card or mobile wallet. Some customers may also see small “pending” or “pre‑authorization” amounts when a card is first swiped or tapped; these usually fall away and are replaced by the final bill once it is processed.

If you don’t immediately recognize a charge, first think back to any recent visit to North Avoca or the Central Coast and check your calendar, receipts, or email confirmations from the date shown on your statement. Review any mobile wallet (Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.) history, as those often list the café name and exact time of the transaction. To resolve questions about a specific payment, you can contact the café directly using the details on theboyandtherose.com or via their social media pages; provide the transaction date, amount, and the last four digits of the card used so they can look it up in their point‑of‑sale system. If you still suspect an error or unauthorized use after speaking with them, contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the charge or request a card replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see a charge from THE BOY AND THE ROSE on my bank statement?

This charge typically appears when you’ve purchased something at The Boy and the Rose café in North Avoca, such as coffee, breakfast, brunch, or takeaway food. The transaction descriptor may appear as “THE BOY AND THE ROSE,” “BOY & ROSE NORTH AVOCA,” or a similar variation depending on your bank. Check whether you, a family member, or a traveling companion visited North Avoca around the date of the charge.

What are typical amounts I might be charged by The Boy and the Rose?

Most individual transactions are for café-style purchases, which commonly range from about AUD $5–$15 for coffee and drinks, and up to AUD $25–$40 for full meals or multiple items. Larger totals may reflect group orders, multiple rounds of drinks, or takeaway and casual catering. For exact prices, refer to the current menu on theboyandtherose.com or your in‑store receipt.

Does The Boy and the Rose have subscriptions, memberships, or recurring billing?

The Boy and the Rose operates as a café and typically charges per visit for food and beverages, so you should not normally see recurring monthly subscription fees from them. If a similar amount from this merchant appears on your statement every month, review any coffee tabs, pre‑paid vouchers, or third‑party delivery apps you may have used. If you still can’t identify a recurring charge, contact the café and your bank to investigate possible card misuse.

Why do I see a small pending or duplicate charge from The Boy and the Rose?

Some banks display a small pre‑authorization or a temporary “pending” amount when your card is first tapped or inserted, especially for contactless or mobile-wallet payments. This is usually replaced by the final, correct transaction total once the payment is fully processed. Any duplicate pending authorizations should fall off automatically within a few business days; if they do not, you can ask your bank to release them and, if needed, contact the café with your receipt so they can confirm only one payment was captured.

How can I get a copy of my receipt from The Boy and the Rose?

If you paid in person and requested an emailed receipt, check the email account associated with your mobile wallet or the address you provided at the counter. If you didn’t keep your paper receipt, contact The Boy and the Rose using the details on theboyandtherose.com and provide the transaction date, approximate time, amount, and last four digits of your card so they can search their point‑of‑sale records and, where possible, reissue a receipt.

How do I resolve a billing error or incorrect amount from The Boy and the Rose?

Start by comparing the amount on your bank statement with the itemized total on your receipt, including any surcharges (such as weekend or public holiday surcharges) that may apply. If you believe you were overcharged, reach out directly to the café with proof of the transaction so they can review the bill and, if appropriate, process a partial or full adjustment. If you are unable to resolve the matter with the business, contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction.

Can I request a refund from The Boy and the Rose if I was charged but didn’t receive my order?

If there was a mistake with your order, you were charged twice, or you had to leave before receiving your items, contact the café as soon as possible—ideally on the same day. Provide details of what happened, along with your receipt or a screenshot of the charge, so staff can verify the payment in their system and determine whether a refund or credit is appropriate. Refunds, when approved, are usually returned to the same card used for payment and may take several business days to appear, depending on your bank.

How can I contact The Boy and the Rose about a charge I don’t recognize?

Visit theboyandtherose.com for current contact details, including their phone number, email address, and links to social media profiles. When you reach out, include the date and exact amount of the charge, how your card was used (physical card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.), and the name shown on your bank statement. This information helps the café quickly locate the transaction in their system and confirm whether it matches a purchase made at their North Avoca location.
