We were up in Belgrave and decided for a pub meal instead of a cafe style one . What an inspired choice. Staff were attentive from the moment we walked in . Gave great recommendations and the empty plates was the end result. Gotta try the Greek Salad. Prices were very reasonable. Will most certainly be back

I love the Acorn , whenever I enter it's like a big hug , the food, service , staff and familiar patrons are all so homey, friendly and a safe place.. Awesome bands too. Maybe one negative, keep the coffee machine on a bit longer many times unable to get a coffee and still early.
