Genesis in the Hills (Roleystone, WA)

By Chris R.

 

 

Recently we visited 'Genesis in the Hills' for an early Saturday breakfast.  We don't get to visit as often as we like given the ongoing nature of work at the Sanctuary, but the trip is always worth the wait. Described as 'delightful' and 'picturesque' in restaurant reviews, we couldn't agree more. 

Located on the scarp of Croydon Road in Roleystone, a trip to Genesis can be organised along with a walk in any one of the surrounding parks, including Araluen.  It is child and dog friendly and the gardens are beautiful.  If the weather is kind, we recommend sitting on the outside deck to listen to the bird song in the tree canopy overhead.  Come wintertime, enjoy the cosy warmth of the cottage, decorated with the works of local artists. 

The menu has something for everyone.  Vegetarian and vegan options feature local produce and can be ordered as a take away for those fortunate to live close by.  For breakfast we love the vegan omelette (pictured), served with an amazing homemade hummus, although there are also cereals and the 'big' breakfast for visitors planning walks.  

 

 

The lunch menu is equally as extensive and features daily salads which are colourful and healthy.  The cakes displayed on the counter are made in house and have a vegan option available.

We hope you enjoy your visit to Genesis in the Hills and are certain your first will not be your last!
