Great afternoon outside enjoy music and good food! Perfect Sunday afternoon.

Had the steak and it was great. Partner had the parma and the chicken breast was thick and juicy.

Hello, we had a great night to celebrate St Pats Day. Food was great and atmosphere also fantastic. We found one of your waiters.

Fabulous atmosphere and music friendly staff great night. loud and busy I like. if they don't like noise probably not for them when playing music.

$45 steak very over priced ... when it came out it look like a BBQ chop .. very small serve of everything on plate.

Nestled in THE BASIN, The Acorn is a delightful pub that seamlessly combines great food with a vibrant live music atmosphere. Families, couples, and friends alike are warmly welcomed by Tony and his friendly staff. The extensive menu boasts delicious small and share plates, while a fine selection of drinks enhances the dining experience. Patrons appreciate the cozy ambiance, excellent service—even on busy nights—and thoughtful touches like complimentary garlic bread. With regular charity events and themed nights, The Acorn is not just a pub but a community hub worth revisiting.
