172 Picton Main St unit 107, Prince Edward, ON K0K 2T0, Canada
Located in Downtown Picton, The Acoustic Grill is a live music venue and burger joint. The Acoustic Grill opened in May 2006 and is located in the back of historic Master Feeds Building. Since then, owners Steve Purtelle & Jenny Leigh have been serving up the Best Burgers in town. Offering talented local & travelling musicians on the smallest but coolest stage in PEC. The Acoustic Grill’s interior reflects the storied past of the old feed mill. Offering a cozy pub atmosphere with a touch of rock and roll. Band posters line the walls showing all the amazing musicians who have graced the stage. The music is acoustic and the burgers rock!
Service was great. Steak was ok. Served sitting on top of a huge serving of shoe string fries. Would have preferred a bigger plate with the steak not sitting on top of the fries. It was hard to cut the steak without pushing the fries off the plate. Steak could have been seared a little crispier on the outside with a little more fresh garlic used in the process. Maybe done on a well seasoned cast iron pan. I would still go back there and try some of the other dishes. My friend had the wings and they were excellent!
I work here but what a place. Best pint of Guinness, best burger, great service that’s super attentive and handsome (servers name was Connor) Absolute dynamite experience. Live music is always great on weekends and it’s Thursday wing nights are excellent. Steve and Jenny have run a great spot for over 19 years and the community holds it as dear to their hearts. The best order would be a pint of Guinness, followed by chicken wings with blue cheese dressing, with the acoustic jam burger. Wash it all done with a neat whiskey (writers tears) and then another Guinness. Asking to sit in Connors section is a sure way to have a great night. -Connor
Th food was atrocious, but our server was attentive and helpful. The deep-fried pickles appetizer was good, but preeth basic for bar food. My partner and his iron stomach finished a what can only be described as "old meat" tasting steak. The chicken sandwich was mediocre at best, but the sweet potato fries were spot on. The beer my partner had was reasonably priced, but my Ceasar seemed to lack any alcohol. The atmosphere is what makes this place, so if you're looking for good music and a lively venue, this is it. If you're looking for decent food, even for a bar, do yourself a favor and choose some place else.
Small intimate space. Live music was good. Food was great, we had nachos and a burger. Must have a reservation if they are busy as they will reserve all of the tables and there is no first come first serve.
Small bar but everything was perfect. The food the service the prices. I liked everything the burger and the steak are very tasty. I wish the steak was a bit bigger. Very generous in giving fries lol. The band was a nice touch too. A must visit!
A “hits the spot” kinda place after a day at the Outlet. Cold, properly poured local beers and crowd pleasing dishes well prepared. The live music was a perfect touch to end a summer day. Service excellent. Relaxed atmosphere.
I was sceptical, but Acoustic Grill actually lived up to its WiFi password #Bestburgerever Great atmosphere and live music for a hot midsummer night in Picton. A must stop for the out of towners.
We went to this restaurant for lunch since it has good reviews and I am very happy that we've been there. The atmosphere and vibes are perfect. They have a stage for live music and performance, and the interior was authentic and beautiful. We tried the burger and Cesar salad. Oh my god, the burger was amazing! It was so juicy and tasty with a good amount of fries. The meat was fresh, and the patty was fresh and fluffy. The salad was also great, fresh lettuce with smoked bacon, and we've added the fried chicken on top. Overall, it was a great experience, and this restaurant alone is worth driving 2.5 hours from Toronto.
Connor was an exceptional server for my girlfriends and I! Super attentive and answered all of our questions and even offered to taste test the food before we ate it. Over and above service 10/10 would come back
Best little pub in town! Always huts the right chord! Vegetarian options: Great black bean burger! Food : 5/5 |
Steves wings were awesome, incredible sacrifice from one of the Countys best humans to make these outside in the cold for us. Great music, Bongard Road, good friends, best time ever.
One of my fav place in the county. It s so chill and great. Down to earth. Love it.
Black Bean veggie burger and shoestring fries. Yum.
Loved it! Such a cozy and friendly place. Great service and the food was delicious. Best sweet potato fries!
If you want a warm Irish atmosphere, you can count on Acoustic Grill. The staff & vibe was so welcoming & fun. The live music was intimate, the perfect volume, & was music everybody could jam to. The food is what to expect in an Irish pub.
Excellent chill out place. Mid November didnt reduce the busyness
Great family run music venue in downtown Picton. The burger is 5 star!
I love the soups there. Theyre all homemade and full of veggies. Im a creature of habit so once I tried their black bean burger I was hooked. Had never had one before but its what I order overtime Im at the Acoustic Grill. Im sorry it took me so long to get there! I discovered 3 dog winery there when I had a glass of reisling there. I loved it! So great food and great wine. Cant do better than that!
We went for lunch out of season, but still the place had a good vibe. Would love to go back when theres live music - Im sure it would be a great experience. Wheelchair accessibility: Level access into the venue.
I was in town ( Picton ) and stopped by The Acoustic for a quick beer . Unfortunately I had a seizure while I was was there ( related to a stroke I had several years ago ) and Carter ,the bartender , the owner and several guests came to my aid . I can t thank this group of people enough for the care they gave me . Many thanks . Tim Food
Genuine, customer focused service with great burgers. And great music! Highly recommended!
Great burger!! Everything was tasty
Best wings in town. Great service.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bun available Recommended dishes
You get what you have asked for. Rejuvenating place in country side.
Great casual pub
Loved it, awesome food drink and entertainment
Hands down, the best chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. Great music, great atmosphere, great food.
Very good service and its excellent!
Entertainment was absolutely amazing. The staff there is very friendly as well. I would recommend to anyone who goes to Picton Ontario to visit the acoustic Grill
Amazing night out with live music! The menu is delicious, too.
The first time we were at this establishment was during COVID and just before our daughter left to go study in Minnesota for her undergrad. Well we are back, our daughter is now about to embark on her second year of law school!!! Seems like we love to celebrate here when we come to PEC!!! Chloe was our server and she made our visit amazing!! She was friendly, thoughtful and a lot of fun. We also had a chance to listen to some awesome live music while we ate. The help we reserved at the door was equally welcoming. We will see you next year for sure!!! Thanks for being such an awesome experience. Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free buns yay
Nice quiet pub with great costumer service. Didnt have to wait at all for my food, the atmosphere is very mellow and their wings and Greek salad are very very good !
The crowd was great. The beer selection was decent. The live act was incredible. Look up Matt Kowalyk music. He played an eclectic mix of covers with a personal touch -- just wonderful. Unfortunately, the service was weird. Half the staff just seemed to be pissed off and clearly did not want to interact with folks from out of town, aka as, you know, your bread and butter in a town reliant on tourist traffic.
Nice little pub, but definitely under staffed. Food took an hour to come out. Wings were good. Steak was sad ,like it was cooked on a George Forman. Server recommended a burger for my 2 year old. It was an adult burger with nothing on it and cooked medium rare for 20 bucks. Thank !
We found this place when every other kitchen was closed for the night and we are so glad we did. The food was delicious, the live music was amazing (we went on a Wednesday), and the servers were so friendly! We had such a great time on the first night of our trip. Highly recommend!!
It was perfect
Great experience! Food was quick and delicious
Good place for relaxing dinner or lunch
Went to the acoustic grill for dinner, showed up and 5:30pm and by 6pm it was fully packed. Had the acoustic burger, it was a super messy but super delicious burger! The wings were cooked well and tasty, but nothing compared to the burger. Our server was friendly and welcoming and was very knowledgeable about their beers and drinks. The service was excellent thanks acoustic grill!
Outstanding service, food and establishment. Jennie was amazing and couldn t have asked for a better time! Thanks guys can t wait to come again
We came in with a large group and put this cute little Ontario pub to work. They were up for the challenge and provided our whole team with delicious food in a wonderful atmosphere. The wait staff was friendly and prompt.
This place. Amazing, recently I got into a bike accident, and now need a wheelchair (hopefully temporarily) they were able to accommodate me. Now Ive been here a couple times and every time, we get their deep fried pickles as a starter, they are to die for, their staff are professional and their live music, although too loud for my autistic girlfriend is amazing. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for good pub-esque place this is the spot to go.
Cute little place! Stopped in for a couple of pints! Great service.
The burger is house made resulting in mega taste. I had it with blue cheese. Great great burger.
Great place to get a pint and sit watching live music. Lots of on tap beers to choose from.
Simple pub menu. We had the corned beef sandwich and a burger, plus salad and fries. All good...salad was fresh. Great friendly service.
Service is rude and the food is incredibly average. The only good thing is the live band.
A lively restaurant with good food and music. Good vegetarian options. Worth your money and time.
Nice place, good food and good music inside. I highly recommend
Courteous service and delicious hamberger! Great discovery!
Best music, best salad (I know, not what you might expect on the highlight reel), best staff.
We were at the Grill last Wednesday for drinks and to listen to the live music. Great atmosphere and music! Shout out to the fantastic owners and the bar tender who jumped in to help me when another guest spilled red wine on me. Of course I was wearing white , the owner ran out and purchase some Dawn dish soap and we were able to get the stains out. Thanks for being so thoughtful!!
Best veggie burger, Best chicken sandwich, Best lunch spot!
Great spot! Best ever hamburger. Nice selections of local beer and wine. Service was top notch. We ate on the outdoor patio. A bit unassuming from the street but it is worth it. We are visiting from out of the area but would highly recommend for anyone looking for a casual dining experience.
Cute little place with a nice atmosphere. I have been there a few times for after pickleball beers with the guys. My wife and her girlfriend have also been here for lunch and enjoyed the food.
An absolute hidden gem , great food, service and ambiance...we will be back!
Popped in for a bite at dinner time. Great selection on the menu. The burger was amazing and juicy. Had the sweet potato fries and they were super crisp and delicious! I would love to go back with the live music...seems like a happening spot. The staff was super nice and courteous. Vegetarian options: Some veggie options on the menu!
This restaurant is a little hidden when youre on Main Street, but its worth the detour! It was really great, the staff is very nice, the food is great and the music is very traditional! If you are looking for an exotic place, this is the right place :) and especially if you are very hungry!
You know when Chef Ramsey bites into food and immediately spits it out, that was my grizzled steak sandwich. My wife tried their chicken fingers and they were comparable to frozen out of a box.
Such a cute little area! Amazing service, delicious food, great atmosphere. Will definitely be back next time I m in Picton.
Cool atmosphere Nice waiter and waitresses and one of the best burgers Ive ever had
Great place !
Great location,friendly staff, clean. The burger was fresh, juicy, and served with a big portion of fries as a side. Recommended dishes
Jack was great. Made it before kitchen closed. Nachos had real cheese and wings as they should!!! Bar was really cool
A perfect evening.
At first we didn t know where the entrance was cause there was no sign we saw another group who were also confused where the door was. The fries was not that good and also got too much gravy for my poutine. Food
They say they ve got the best burger in town. I ve been coming here forever and Acoustic Grille is one of my go tos. And I can tell you their burger is awesome. Definitely the best in town if not maybe in the County. As for the rest of the menu I have no clue. Because the burger is so darn good.
Great place we grabbed a quick bite to eat :-) great service and good food
The poutine was awesome- salad and wings were good and the local wine choice was great. Service was great too.
Lovely cool place, nice staff
A feel good place, friendly service..highly recommend this place...
What a great spot and great service! Connor made our first experience at the Acoustic Grill a must for returning there when we are back in town. Great fun!
Warm place and beautiful atmosphere.
Best burger I ve ever had, but the fries were a bit dry and plain.
Fun atmosphere with live acoustic music and delicious pub fare!
Stopped in after dinner to hear live music. Waiter was helpful and described the selection of beers to us. The entertainment was terrific. I d go again.
First time at Acoustic Grill with a party of 13 people, the service was awesome, the waitress didnt skip a beat!! The food was fantastic, huge portions and the atmosphere was very homey and comfortable. A perfect hidden gem to hang out with friends, and enjoy some live music. We will definitely be back!! Highly recommend.
Great food and wonderful music. We were pleasantly surprised by how charming this pub was.
A very good experience and worth going back!
Do you like pubs? Do you like amazing pub food? Do you like friendly and attentive staff? Do you like awesome live music in an intimate setting? Then you should go to the Acoustic Grill, order a pint Guinness, and tell Steve that he s a total stud. Corned beef sandwich rivals some of the best out of NY and Montreal. Excellent chicken wings. Always upgrade to a poutine.
Good food. Great service.
I loved the food, but I would come back again and again for the fries and the Sheba s island punch! So gooood!!
Great spot!!
Really good vegetarian poutine. Friendly service.
Lovely atmosphere. Live music was great. Simple pub grub done very well! Wings were excellent!
We stopped for a late lunch and the service and staff are amazing. We had nachos and a chilli to share which were delicious!! The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, perfect for our quick bites.
We have always enjoyed the experience at the Acoustic Grill...The food is delicious and the portions are amazing. Service is outstanding and the atmosphere always spectacular. Thankyou for making out experience always a memorable one..We will definitely be back . .Cheers Marj and Reg
A really nice pub with live music. Service was wonderful beer was cold food was outstanding. Great little place to hang out after a long week at work.
I love this place! Great burgers with gluten free options. Really great music too. Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free buns available for burgers and sandwiches.
Great live music and food!
Great food and atmosphere! Def will be back! Thanks Jenny and Steve!
I travel 11 months/year all over the US and Canada. I just ate the best burger I ve had in many of these years. Excellent.
Excellent bar, great live music. Food was good and they cut the burger in half without us asking (we were splitting a meal) drinks were yummy too
Great vibe and friendly atmosphere. 40 degrees are amazing acoustic act if you can catch them! Local beers are really good. Definitely worth a visit!
This is an amazing place. Been coming here for yrs. We had our wedding here, this place is that good. Cant wait to visit again.
The Acoustic Grill 5 Fantastic Owners Mr & Mrs Steve Service by: Georgia! Friendly, Welcoming, Attentive, Just Excellent Food: large Portions, Great Presentation. Very Delicious Music: Great Time!
Such good food and drink! We came with our kids, and the staff were very accommodating. Will come back again! Food for the kids came quick and then our food followed. Hot and fresh! Great music too, will have to come back when live music is on! Food : 5/5
We were visiting Picton for a couple days and came in for dinner and drinks. We had their special pulled pork and coleslaw sandwich. It was delicious! The staff were friendly and attentive and we loved the atmosphere and live music.
Great place! Good atmosphere and the food is really excellent!
Such a fun place - Great People! Tasty Food! Fun Atmosphere
Sooooo delicious, highly recommend
Always a great time! Food : 5/5
Great Steak sandwich and sweet potato fries.
Great food, great concerts, great service. A small pub just off Main Street, but a local treasure.
Excellent quality of meat
Came in on a Friday around 9 to find it was very busy. We were seated right away, and drinks arrived quickly. As did our food. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. Enjoyed our meal to the sound of a live band. Will happily return
Great food and people
I would highly recommend The Acoustic Grill! The atmosphere is wonderful and the staff were amazing.
Quick service for acoustic jam burger and sweet potato poutine! will come back for more.
I always love to drop in this place when I am in Picton.
Always a great place to head for a casual drink, consistently tasty pub fare and kind music. Friendly, welcoming staff. Its tiny and fills up quick, so make a reservation during peak summer months or on weekends.
This place is soOO! COOL. I just wish we could have been here for live music.
Great food, friendly staff. Everything was made fresh. Would definitely recommend and to back, free parking too.
The best burger I have had in a long time and there pineapple martini was amazing, anyone if your in the re stop buy try this burger its amazing!!!
Very clean, warm atmosphere, courteous service and very good prices. The quality of the food and its taste was simply WOW. THANK YOU
The staff were amazing!!!
Just what we needed. Service and food were great.
Rib eye steak sandwich was the best restaurant meal I have had in ages.
Located in the small and serene town of Picton this place is a blast. This place has live music on some days. Staff is courteous, food is awesome. We tried honey garlic chicken wings and hot chicken wings. Honey garlic was super tasty, however my friends didnt like the hot one as it was too sour. When I gave this feedback to the waiter he took the plate and tossed in honey garlic and so the wings were now tastier. Serving size was also great. Very vibrant, amazing food, nice booze, courteous staff and live music. What more could you ask for.
Great burgers and the live music was fun!
Great food, great service, and an excellent atmosphere.
Great place for an after work drink, love the local ciders! (Stock & Row and County Cider)
We went in thinking it was just going to be your regular basic bar food but we were pleasantly surprised. The food selection was great and everything we ordered was top notch. Fresh and tasty!
Great vibe, delicious drinks, tasty food. Would highly recommend it
Great local bar. Food is consistently great with an excellent selection of local beers on tap. The bands they bring in are always quality and the crowd always gets in to it and makes it a fun environment. The owners are super friendly and make you feel welcome and obviously take pride in their establishment and it shows. Can t recommend this place enough.
Super friendly staff and atmosphere
Incredible burger, amazing fries, great live music and good beer! I had an amazing time here and will definitely come back next time Im in Picton.
Love this place! The food is delicious and the service is always amazing! They have live music on the weekends and it it a lot of fun!
Best food in Picton. Very chill and good pub vibe. But the reason to come is the food and music. If this was where the County Canteen was it would be the most popular spot in town. But it s tucked away so it isn t too busy. Food does take quite a while but it s worth it so don t be in a rush! Must have is definitely the Acoustic Jam Burger. And the wings are so good!
Very nice atmosphere! Food was amazing and lots of it..Looking forward to coming back..
We visited the Acoustic Grill during a recent getaway celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. We were so impressed with the delicious food, great music and most of all, the incredible service. We mentioned to Steve, the owner, that we were from out of town & celebrating our anniversary and he went above and beyond to make our evening memorable and special. We look forward to our next visit to Prince Edward County and the Acoustic Grill. Thanks Steve, Wendy & Jim
Great service and delicious pub food. Will definitely visit again
Great food and entertainment too !
The service and the atmosphere were very good because the music was not too loud and the waiters were nice. As for the cuisine, the portions were generous and the food was very good. However, the presentation was not perfect. Parking: The parking lot was only half full and was easy to find. Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is on the same level as the ground.
Great ambience but very difficult to find.
Place is amazing. Great food great drinks. Ask for Lucy she s the best :)
Had a wonderful time. Lucy went above and beyond. Strongly recommend.
Fun rowdy tavern. No seating available for dinner. Got pretty loud after 11pm Service : 5/5
Most places treat vegetarians as second-class citizens. They usually give you fake meat or the dreaded bean burgers in a sandwich that really fits for real meat. The acoustic guys felt like they constructed the sandwich for the vegetarian beam burger and it was absolutely awesome. Also the sweet potato loaded poutine was amazing. This place is quite the heaven for vegetarians considering that they are called a grill.
Great little pub but the live music was far too loud. Service was great and the food was very good. Prices are very reasonable.
Amazing tasting burgers that are big on size, and big on flavor. The live music was good, but in a small place, it was hard to talk to people. Lots of food and beverages to choose from, but after seeing some go by, it was burgers for 3 of us! If the weather is nice, try the patio!
must check out during a live music night, but even without music, the food and atmosphere make it a must in the county
I need this on vancouver Island please! They have the best Ceasars around! Great little spot.
Great place. Small quaint good acoustic music.
My husband said their burger was the best hes ever had in his whole life!
I was driving through and didn t have time to sit down to eat so I gave them a call to order food ahead of time when I stopped for gas. I spoke to Lucy and she was so friendly, took my order quickly and assured me that food will be ready for pickup. They accommodated me by letting me order takeout, and it was ready exactly when I said I d be picking it up. Unfortunately, I was a few minutes late so the food wasn t warm. However, despite that, it was one of the most delicious veggie burgers I ve ever had. Excellent service and food!
Great Vibe!!
Perfect spot but needs a mecinal bull for rodeo
Been there many times. Always loved their burgers. Had their steak sandwich in the past and enjoyed it. Had it again a few days ago and was disappointed. A different sandwich than I remember. Guess Ill have to stick to the burger.
Had the Acoustic Jam burger and they arent kidding, it really is one of the best burgers Ive had. Super juicy, moist and delicious . I had it on a gluten free bun and the bun it itself was not awesome as it totally fell apart but I mentioned it to server and he went and got me a new bun that was grilled longer and that was better but good GF buns are hard to find, I get it. But burger itself was great and I felt they took great care in ensuring my food was safe. Side salad was also very good. My friend had the same burger on a regular bun with fries and was there in the past and said the chicken fingers are also really good. Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free Burger bun available but menu otherwise limited to I think two types of burgers and salad.
Loved the entertainment and drinks. Did not eat here.
5/5 all around, had a great diner...thank you!
A great place . Good food served with a smile. This venue supports live music like no other.
My favourite place in the county for live music because of its cozy atmosphere, great food and amazing service! Always looking forward to stopping in when Im in town
The hot honey chicken sandwich is a PEC must-try.
Amazing and great service
First time here, but not the last. Excellent corned beef sandwich..to die for
Great bar with live music and good tasting Guinness
When the only nit is that the food took a while to arrive because the place was packed but arrived hot, delicious & full of flavour, it would be petty to complain. My compliments to the chefs & staff.
Great live music and atmosphere
This is one of the nicest pubs I ve visited in a number of years. Cozy, authentic atmosphere. This was a quiet Tuesday in November, so no live entertainment. I can imagine how great this place would be during the summer. Food and service was excellent.
Great food and service.
Great food.
Great place to stop in the County
Wings were excellent, fantastic service and the music was a great addition to some birthday celebrations.
Amazing food and service! Very friendly staff and the entire atmosphere was great. We had the acoustic jam burger (one of the best burgers I ve ever had!) and the wings which were also amazing! Live music was wonderful too.
I go here almost every time I visit the County. I think it is my favorite pub in Picton. Nice selection of beer. I see people enjoying the food, but have only eaten here one time. I remember the burger being okay, but that was a while ago. Live music is better. Bumper stickers should be issued! Service
Food is always good. Portions are fair. The sweet potato poutine is my favorite. Staff are nice and friendly. Food : 5/5 |
The food and service wonderful!
