Our Ethos

At Icaro, we believe in food and coffee without compromise.


Our baristas serve ST. ALi organic coffee with care and precision, while our kitchen celebrates the craft of real food — vibrant, house-made meals created from seasonal, local, and organic ingredients wherever possible. Influenced by South American traditions and modern Australian wholefood cuisine, our menu honours nature’s rhythm and the power of plants as nourishment and medicine. We choose purity over convenience — no refined sugars, preservatives, seed oils, or fillers — just honest, flavour-rich food designed to energise, ground, and inspire.

the meaning of our name

Icaro (cuechua: ikaro) is a south american indigenous colloquialism for magic song carrying an intention. today this term is commonly used to describe the medicine songs performed in vegetal cermonies, especially by shamans to induce a profound state of healing, awareness and protection. we chose this name as an intention to share awareness of healthy wholefoods to heal our bodies, incorporate sustainable initiatives and be a space where community feels welcome and at home sharing in conversations and discussions to create positive changes.

projects we support

we proudly support current projects being undertaken by alianza arkana, an organisation whost motivated support to people in the ucayali river. they have some incredible projects underway that cultivate sustainable solutions and encourage community wellbeing. they believe “thriving people make a thriving rainforest, and vice versa” and so do we, which is why we are working with them. a percentage of our profits go towards local community in paoyan, this is chance to give back to community in need where the elders of this community in particular have shared a lot of knowledge with people directly involved in this business.
