An owner with his heart into it!
Steve the owner has a strong commitment to good quality food and entertainment...far beyond pub fare, all made with care and a twist...his dedication to music is equaled, some of the finest talents across the country and more play there at this very intimate setting. Check out www.zapp-productions.com for another independent dedicated to music first.

Sooo goood
August 07, 2014I've been here many times and never been disappointed. It's a popular spot so if you're a large group it's best to make reservations. You have to try their deep-fryed dill pickles!

Great place for a casual dinner

Food and Music - A Great Combination
August 04, 2014When we are in the Picton area, we usually try and get to the Acoustic Grill for dinner and some live music. The hamburger I had was excellent, the meat locally grown and cooked on the grill just right. A great selection of local wines and beers, this is an intimate setting for live music. Be sure to make reservations.

Great little bar and grill
August 04, 2014Super hamburger and chips. It's tucked away down an alley but definitely look for it. Service was good and it was inexpensive. We'll surely return there when next in Picton. Since we were there for lunch only, we didn't get a chance to experience the live entertainment but I understand it's very good. Give it a try!

Great atmosphere but food only ok
August 04, 2014
Burger was great but the salads are to be avoided, just a bowl of lettuce and the fries appear to be straight out of a cheap bag of frozen fries.
Although the food was not so good, the actual place is great, friendly service and great entertainment.

Great hamburger & entertainment

Fun night spot in Picton
August 03, 2014Great live music and one of the best burgers I've ever had. Probably "the" place to go for nightlife in Picton. Pretty good beer selection too!

Hit and miss
July 31, 2014
On my visit to prince edward county, I ended up eating here twice. On my first visit, I was with friends and family. I ordered the steak sandwich with their chips ($2 extra for fries?!). The sandwich was okay but the chips were over done. My wife had the burger and fries and thought they were very good.
I decided...

Great service, great music, great atmosphere
July 28, 2014We went to a dinner and show here. It's a very friendly place and all the seats are good for hearing and seeing the show. The sound was very good. Food is reasonable, good, and the service was great, too. Nice beer list!

A wonderful way to spend an evening
July 23, 2014Loved this place! We would definitely come back here again on our next visit to Picton. Very interesting decor and relaxed, friendly atmosphere. The food was casual but very, very good.

Good meal at a good price
July 23, 2014The menu is pretty simple and the food was well prepared, arrived in a timely manner, and more importantly was a reasonable serving. I'm tired of being charged $18 for a burger and getting 2lbs of fries with it. This was a good portion at a great price and the peameal bacon sandwich was nice and fresh. Didn't try the... more

Come for the music, not the food
July 19, 2014Typical pub menu. Nachos were mediocre; burger was good, but hardly the best-ever as our server enthusiastically promoted. (She was actually a great server and can't fault her at all; appreciated her attentiveness.) Wouldn't hurry back unless I was making a point to catch a music set. And that is worth going for.

July 01, 2014Beer was good and chicken sandwich was fine. However, when ordering the steak sandwich was advised that the regular steak had been replaced by another type of steak. Open faced steak sandwich full of gristle and fat. When waitress did the usual "Is everything fine?" told her this. She said, "Well, that what you get when you order that type... more

What a surprise
July 01, 2014
We arrived mid afternoon and after getting installed we wanted to have a bite to eat.
At first couldn't find the place as it is tucked away... but it was really worth it the effort of finding it.
I had the steak, and the kids had burgers...
The service was great, the food was excellent.
Can't wait to go back!...

Can't Wait to go Back
June 28, 2014This little out of the way Pub was suggested to us by the people at Barley Days Brewery. It was great. Friendly wait staff and the food was very yummy. The four of us each had a different sandwich/burger and all was delicious. Lots to eat at a reasonable cost. Like I said.....Can't wait to go back.

What a find in Picton
June 18, 2014We came upon this fantastic restaurant because of friends suggesting this spot. Absolutely the best burgers and sides you can imagine, and reasonably priced. There is entertainment as well starting at 7:30 which was amazing. I highly reccomend this great restaurant / bar when visiting Picton.

Great atmosphere, fantastic burgers
June 10, 2014
This was our second time at Acoustic Grill and it was just as good as the first time....the burgers are by far some of the best we have ever had, especially the Acoustic Jam Burger, the deep fried pickles are pretty tasty as well.
This is a must visit if you are in the Picton area.

Waited over 45 minutes for our food...and it wasn't even overly busy
June 07, 2014I have been to the Grill a few times, and we decided to bring some guests who came to visit us in the county.

Great music and great burgers
June 07, 2014The Grill was a great night out during our week-end visit to Picton. It was as easy walk from our accommodation at the Chatsworth Suites, and the live music was excellent. It had a great casual dining menu (and great beers), and we had the best burgers.

Great burger
April 20, 2014The Acoustic Jam burger was really good - the cheddar my husband added to it was thick and melty and it was good aged stuff. The burger was really good.

Acoustic Jam never misses

We are locals. When hankering for a burger the Acoustic Jam Burger never misses. The Roasted Chicken Medley gets attention occasionally.
An intimate setting (tucked down an alley off Main Street) that has the artists saying "I love this place!" Weekend live acts, sometimes weekdays. 13 brews on tap-local and from afar, limited selection of bottles of beer. Sufficient Wine...

Best hamburger ever
March 02, 2014My friend told me that I had to try the signature burger with the blue cheese topping because it was the best burger he'd ever had. So, even though I rarely eat meat at all, and even rarer for me to eat red meat, I took him at his word and went for it. He was NOT wrong. Absolutely delicious... more

Best atmosphere in Picton
February 28, 2014The Acoustic Grill is a must for anyone coming to Prince Edward County. The food is great and the staff is always friendly. I would suggest the homemade burger and the tasty in house brew 'J45'. Steve is as personable an owner as I've ever seen and the Grill epitomizes his outgoing nature. 5 stars!

I worked in the UK for a while and the Acoustic Grill is the nearest thing to an English pub which I have found, with a very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
