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.

I dined inside with a friend in the late morning. We received excellent service from our waitresses who were knowledgeable on dairy content in the drinks when I ordered lactose free hot chocolate. The food was delish, and beautifully presented. I loved how many of the dishes included Australian native flavours and ingredients. I will try a balcony table next time! 👌🏻
