Ingrid and Peter, owner-chefs. Everything made in front of you.

Say hello

Two chefs,one café

Ingrid and Peter cooked in Melbourne kitchens for years before they landed in Cowes: the Espy, Mad Cowes, Temuku Soul Food, Lil' Honey, Cafe Blue Bamboo. Real venues, real craft, real skills developed over real time.

At Cafe Sari, they do everything themselves. Every egg, every cake, every coffee. You can watch it happen, which is part of the point. There's no kitchen crew hidden behind a pass. It's just them, a chalkboard menu, and whatever inspires them that morning.

The dress rack and the novelty mugs? That's theirs too. If it seems like a lot of personality for a village café, that's because it is. It works.
