Swan Valley WA

Open: 9am-5pm Wed-Sun.

The Taylor family moved to the Swan Valley in 1978 and have transformed their once home into a Gallery displaying lino cut prints, fabrics, wallpaper, greeting cards and other works of art and is a great way to spend some time browsing. The gallery is complemented with a great cafe.

Taylors has a cosy rustic ambiance with lots of galvanised iron, old jarrah tables, shady gum trees and a collection of memorabilia from rural and mining sites which are scattered around the spacious grounds creating a very relaxed atmosphere.

The cafe has  a good selection of tasty breakfasts, lunches,tempting  cakes and desserts with  fresh fruit juices on offer.

Today we visited for lunch, on a lovely Perth Sunday we ordered the quiche, a Taylors burger and a panini of smoked chicken and tasty tomato relish. All of our meals were well presented and a pleasurable experience on the palate. My wife and son washed it down with a pub squash and I savoured a fresh grapefruit juice which complemented my panini nicely.

We followed up with flat whites and a capo, they were pleasant on the palate with the blend coming through the milk nicely.

Coffee by Dark Star boutique roasters

A great place to visit for a meal or afternoon tea set amid  a calming and  relaxed atmosphere.

No beans here but well worth dropping in for a meal when visiting the Swan Valley.
