Good food, nice place & nice staffs.

Food always good, service is very disappointing waiting 40 minutes and still no drinks. Almost an hour until we got food, will never come again would NOT recommend to others

·

Welcomed us, we were told to sit ANYWHERE so sat down, then ask to moved as the table we sat was reserved! Yet no sign to say this... so we sat at another table and where told someone would be over to take are order shortly. It was not busy yet after waiting for 10 mins and watching as others came in and were having there orders taken myself and my husband waited another 5 minutes ....15mins in total and still nothing so we left massively disappointed.. Will not be returning and would not recommend.

Decided to go out for Sunday lunch. Never been to the Acorn before so seemed like a good idea. Pleasantly surprised. Lovely roast lamb and cauliflower cheese. Really, really sorry that I didn't have room for one of the great home made deserts😞. Never mind will keep a space next time.

We have been before and enjoyed the experience.This time however, was a disaster.Arrived before the rush for Sunday lunch and waited an hour for one of our two dinners.The other got mixed up and they served the same dish my wife was meant to get to someone else who arrived long after us.Fair enough, mistakes happen, but I was then still sat there for 30 minutes with my cold food while waiting for my wife's to come and in the end we cancelled it (after waiting another 10 minutes just to speak to someone).They were obviously having a hard day (we were not the only customers unhappy).One of the staff was quite happy to sit down and have her own dinner while we were waiting for ours and she was not particularly welcoming or friendly.For what it's worth, the lamb dinner looked good but I didn't want to eat much of it after the experience.There was no acknowledgement or apology for the poor experience.

Came here with my sister for a quick lunch, it wasn't too busy, not a long wait for your meal. There is a very good variety of choice on the menu. The staff are very welcoming, the food was tasty and good value for money. It's in a good location, especially if you don't want to go into Yate or Chipping Sodbury which is local to me. Would recommend. There's plenty of parking and for garden lovers there is a garden centre with farm shop next door.

My family and I celebrated my husband's 80th birthday here recently and the venue was brilliant we had 40 guests and the staff put on a delicious finger buffet / cream tea for us. The staff were wonderful and very friendly. The venue was delightful , cosy, comfortable and everyone really enjoyed themselves. I can highly recommend the Acorn to everyone.

So disappointed. Ordered food, waited for an hour. My husbands roast came but when I asked about my order it hadn't even been put through. I get that things go wrong but no apology was made at all. Appalling service. It's such a shame as the food is really good. If you can get it!We have been a few times but wont be going back anytime soon.

We used to go Acorn cafe for breakfast fairly regularly...after our visit this morning I don't think we will return unfortunately.Extremely fatty bacon - £1.75 per extra sliceMushy undercooked Richmond sausages have replaced the lovely farmhouse sausages they used to do.Asked for 1 pot of tea and ended up with two cups of tea at £1.75 per tea bag.Very expensiveQuality gone downhillMuch nicer breakfasts elsewhere.

Been a regular for nearly 7 years now and have never been disappointed!! Jacqui is amazing and will go above and beyond to make your feel welcomed and enjoy your visit, likewise with all the lovely staff! Food is 10/10, all home cooked and fresh! Few of my favourites that I have to recommend - chilli con carne, chicken curry, Breakfasts are amazing, heathy options and vegan also available!! all sandwiches are fresh with the most gorgeous bread and the roast dinners on Sunday are AMAZING, I have them nearly every week! Also.. gets very busy so if there’s a larger group of you I would probably ring up and book a table, just to save disappointment!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5star!!!
