Found in the foothills of the Perth Hills, Avocados Bar & Grill is a lovely spot to visit, particularly if you love to dine al-fresco. The family friendly spot is only a 35-minute drive from the city, and found close to quaint Perth Hills town of Roleystone, near Araluen Botanic Park. Here, you can kick back with a bite to eat and a drink by the beautiful banks of the Canning River.
With indoor, outdoor and riverside seating, at Avocados your spoilt for choice for dining spots to enjoy brunch, lunch or dinner. Avocados welcome both pets and kids with open arms, just be mindful that it is by the river, if you have a wandering toddler. Many of the tables are large, making it easy for catching up with friends and family.
Near the outdoor seating area, there is a gated playground for children. It’s sure to keep them entertained while you look over the menu and wait for your food to arrive.
We were there for coffee and brunch. Of course, it would have been rude not to try the smashed avo! Usually this would have been served with bread, but they were out of gluten free bread that day, so it was served on hash browns. I also added a side of bacon, because, why not?
The big breakfast looked good too – of course, served with a little avocado.
There’s a kid’s menu with a selection of dishes, sure to please little ones.
There’s also a small cabinet with cakes, if you visit for a coffee and cake.
And along the river, there is plenty of birdlife and a bridge to explore. It’s like a scene out of a Monet painting!
In winter, you may end up with wet feet as the water cascades over the bridge.
Along the river, there are benches to relax on while enjoying the scenery.
If you also feel like a Perth Hills staycation, Avocados also has 20 chalets along the Canning River. Some chalets sleep couples, some have beds for up to 5 people, making it perfect for families.
Whether you love smashed avo, or just like basking under a shady avocado tree, everyone is sure to enjoy a visit to this Perth Hills spot.
