Now under new ownership with good access, bigger outdoor seating area and new look restaurant serving Italian dishes for a reasonable price. I went for lunch but they do evening meals and cocktails as well. Most importantly it was clean, tables got cleared quickly, the staff were attentive and friendly. They had some tasty looking cakes so I'll have to come back and try those out.

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.

Nice spacious environment with outside seating as well. Lady running it is extremely nice. Food is very good. Selection of good cakes too. Unfortunately the FIFTY MINUTE wait from arriving at the time booked to finally receiving the meals was agonizing especially as my step-mother has a disability and she really struggled with the long wait to the point where she didn't eat much when the meals arrived.

I've ordered "4 eggs" omelette with cheese and mushrooms which was quite nicely fried. Wanted to order some side chips but was told that need to wait 25min for them!?! The omelette comes with toast however it was served with HALF of cherry tomato and HALF slice of a cucumber and inch of grated carrot!! It just looked really sad on the plate.. When I asked if they have run out of ingredients I was told that this is just garnish not a salad but wast offered any salad instead. With slice of dry and falling apart toast and mouth burning latte wasn't very good experience at all. Ohh by the way.. A bit of salt in egg never killed anyone.. Omelette without seasoning taste just wrong.

Muddy carpark, bring boots, long wait for greasy chips, no card facilities. this place is going down hill. Was great.

Took dad today for an early father's day treat. I reserved a table. When we arrived the table was beautifully decorated with sparkles and balloons, so thoughtful! The food is great and so are the prices. Staff are really lovely and nothing is too much trouble. So what if the car park is puddled this is rainy Britain! 5 stars from me and my family.

Great little place. We stopped for a coffee. Great cakes too. The rest of the menu looked really good too.

Always good wholesome and well prepared food.Good selection of cakes and desserts.Great Sunday lunches.Would always recommend.

Exellent food and very friendly staff who make you feel so welcome. I highly recommend Acorn

What a great cafe. Came here today for a Sunday roast. Great quality meats to choose from. We went for lamb and pork, but chicken or beef also available. It came with all the trimmings you would ever want. To top it all they are dog friendly and Poppy got a sausage. Staff so warm, welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend and will be returning soon.

Good afternoon tea and cake Thanks for the gluten free option. Bit noisy clearing up in the later afternoon

Good food, nice place & nice staffs.

Everything is freshly made on the premises and that’s reflected in the quality of the food. The staff are super friendly & helpful. Defo going back soon.

Visited this week and enjoyed my meal immensely and friendly staff also .. it is nice to have home made food on the premises ..

Fab food, not bad prices, deserts are to wonderful, loved the lemon curd cheesecake

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

Very tasty well priced food. Friendly staff.

Nice atmosphere. I really liked the coffee.

Very good food with generous portion sizes. Just make sure you bring cash as no card machine

Thank you to the brilliant staff at Acorn Coffee Shop, putting on a vegan 3 course meal today! 14 people enjoyed the experience of each others company, 12 vegans and 2 non vegans, excellent service, thank you all x

Just stopped for a coffee, which was reasonably priced unlike some places these days. Saw they were doing Sunday roasts for £10.50, which looked very good. Quite a few customers all eating it, so that's a good sign. Even had a few people dropping by to get a takeaway. Eat inside or outside. It's right next to Oakley Green garden centre, so 2 things to do in the one visit.

Stopped here for a light lunch after a walk with the dog on Yate Common. Very dog friendly restaurant and the food was excellent. I had a tuna melt panini, which came with side salad and crisps. Plenty of filling in the panini and the right amount if salad and crisps. Will definitely return.

Only had Tea but was good and staff were present

Jackie does the most amazing home cooked food and cakes always greeted with a smile from the friendly staff , great place to stop off for a bite to eat on a sunny day (or a rainy day too) !! has nice comfortable chilled feeling indoors and great green outdoors area to enjoy your food in. Top tip it can get busy here so if you don't have time to wait call ahead and sort a take away ! Ps save yourself the hassle of cooking on a Sunday and get a takeaway roast dinner and slice of cake vegan options also available!! (Sounds like I work here, I don't I just appreciate good quality home style cooking :-) give it a try and thank me later !

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.

Breakfast was warmed up in microwave really small breakfast for nearly £8. Got our toast 15 minutes before our actual breakfast. Thought it was greasy and Luke warm. Took ages to get a coffee. No menus and dirty tables everywhere.

Think they were short staffed but we had to wait 45 mins for a simple lunch. Couldn't cope with only 15 customers to cater for. Won't be returning in a rush. When food arrived it was was nice.

What a breakfast!! We were working nearby and really needed a full monty English breakfast but could only think of the local garage until one of the crew noticed this gem of a place. We thought it was the garden centre!! Really fantastic plate of good English food. Service was brilliant and not a bad price for a full plate of happiness.

Quite an odd cafe, especially for a garden centre. The atmosphere is dark and moody with a feel more like a mini nightclub. We only stopped for coffee which was ok with a price of £2.59 for an Americano.

Lovely lunch. Can recommend the paninis (comes with salad and chips) delicious and good value. Service was brilliant. Will revisit 😊

Lovely place. had lovely home made soup and a jacket potato. The staff were very friendly and the place was spotless!

Waited 40 minutes for a few toasties. Ran out of time. Staff were lovely. But left with an empty belly. Too slow.

Didn't know it had re-opened as a bistro/restaurant. We went for brunch and only stayed for a cuppa as we were the only ones in there. Could do with some music playing possibly. More on social media might help as only noticed when passing and thought it had opened as the old acorn.

Good lunch

Top nosh, Sunday Lunch, cooked breakfast, good selection of good food, highly recommended, lost count of number of times I have been. 5*

Not the best service table was dirty toast with scrambled eggs no butter on toast. when asked for they were very stingy... then went to pay and told cash only but no signage to inform you of this so had to leave family and go and find cash point...

Lovely food. Good service, very friendly. seating inside and out.

Lovely food every day of the week, sunday roast is smashing. Cafe is very clean including floor, we have never seen floor dirty on any of our many visits as one customer has mentioned. Granted the parking area is a bit rough but to be fair the area around the cafe is absolutely fine.

Plenty of food on your plate, extensive menu choices, reasonable prices.

Nice coffee and good service

Superb food wonderful service

Food is great and staff friendly.....but the outside is a bit run down and the floor inside has about an inch of grease covering it!! I nearly slid over twice. Would give 5 stars if floor cleaned and outside spruced up a little bit.

Lovely food and good service on Mothers Day but we found the restaurant a bit cold.

Most amazing roast dinner we have ever had...fresh, hot, huge portion. Absolutely delicious, would highly recommended.

Can't tell you how pleased I was to go back there now they have reopened, after a 40k cycle the coffee and chocolate flapjack was amazing !!!

Excellent service and great food. Good choice on menu. Doesn't take credit cards due to iffy wifi service. Free Parking available.

Friendly staff ,good food. Plenty to choose from. Bacon butties were wonderful.

Had breakfast here this week with 11 friends, good food and service. Nice friendly relaxed atmosphere and value for money too x
