The owners and operators of Fat Pippi Pizza are Pam and Mike.
Pam can be found directing the action in the kitchen. Pam has a lifetime experience managing kitchens, cafes and restaurants, cooking for a shearing gang, cooking on a yacht sailing the Pacific and even spent three seasons 'on the ice' cooking up a storm at McMurdo Base, the United States Antarctic research station, before taking a part ownership in Fat Pipi.

Mike is the wild looking fella with whiskers, often found at the front counter, sharing stories with customers. Before becoming a part owner of Fat Pipi Mike was building houses, skippered recreational fishing boats, working as a electrical sales rep and being part of a slaughter house chain. Mike is the dedicated fisherman, catching whitebait during the season to ensure Fat Pipi have a good supply for their unique whitebait pizza.
Take time to chat with Pam about artworks on display, or to Mike about building Fat Pipi and whitebaiting on the West Coast.
