Genesis in the Hills - ROLEYSTONE

We saw this place on the road on a previous visit to Araluen and returned this way to check it out. It's located half way along the road down the Croyden Road entrance to Araluen and is accessed through a semi-steep driveway with a small carpark to the left. We came here for a late lunch and had the specials on offer, spaghetti mushroom bolognese, roast vegetable soup with sour dough bread and chia and white chocolate cake. Reasonable fare but next time I would try the menu items as judging by the pictures on here they look great. Friendly staff, blankets to keep you warm in the outdoor seats and a lovely shaded outdoor area make it a great place to visit.

I visited Genesis In The Hills with my wife for lunch and I'm glad we did. It's a great location, great food, great coffee and excellent service. I had the Gnocchi and my wife had a vegi burger with sweet potato chips, the staff were very friendly and the service was quick we were so glad we visited Genesis as we had a great experience well done

Visited for lunch and enjoyed a tasty vege burger and sweet potato chips. The staff were very friendly and the setting relaxing so would definitely recommend a visit.

I've been to this lovely location quite a few times. I have only just revisited recently since it changed hands and admit that I was a little reluctant to go back since I was sure the food just wouldn't be the same great quality and freshness. I was very wrong. To begin with I found the waitress to be very friendly and professional. She helped me make my choice since I wasn't sure what I wanted. I ordered the pasta salad and it was thoroughly delicious, in fact I nearly ate the plate! My advice to anyone wondering whether or not to give this place a try, don't hesitate. I have never been disappointed with anything I have eaten here or with the service they offered on each occasion.

My partner thought he would introduce me to this establishment as the reviews were good. Originally going for lunch however, after looking at the menu had to change to a hot drink and a cake. Lets start with the cake, tasteless small piece didn't taste like the description at all. I ordered a Belgium hot chocolate to go with the cake, wow you got to be kidding to serve that, the WORST hot chocolate I have ever tasted !! No chocolate taste what so ever, if I wanted a glass off milk I would have ordered it. Would also have been great if you had served the 2 together. You would have noticed that I left that hot chocolate as it was undrinkable. Very disappointed and had to go somewhere else after to satisfy our needs. Not acceptable after spending good hard earned money !!
