ABOUT ICARO
Apollo Bay's Specialty Café & Elixir Bar
The Great Ocean Road has a lot to offer. At Icaro, we take care of the food.
Tucked on Moore Street in the heart of Apollo Bay, Icaro is a specialty café, elixir bar, and coastal dining destination built around one belief — that real food, made properly, changes the experience of a place. Seed-oil-free. Produce-led. Chef-driven. Paddock-to-plate without the compromise.
By day, St Ali Organic coffee, a curated elixir bar — ceremonial cacao, adaptogenic blends, spagyric tinctures — and a seasonal wholefood brunch menu that follows the produce. The best coffee on the Great Ocean Road, and a whole lot more besides.
By night, an elevated share plate menu built around local proteins, coastal seafood, and seasonal vegetables. Small-producer wines. Handcrafted cocktails. The kind of dinner worth planning a Great Ocean Road itinerary around.
This is not a pitstop. This is the destination.
ST Ali Specialty Coffee on the Great Ocean Road
"I opened Icaro because I wanted a place that felt genuinely different — exceptional specialty coffee, nourishing chef-curated meals led by flavour, and come evening, a relaxed wine bar where carefully chosen wines and cocktails give the night its own character. A space so thoughtfully designed that you never want to leave."
