The Acorn, Bicester

Went to the acorn after shopping in bicester village and i have to say after a hard days ploughing round the shops it was welcoming to see smiley faces behind the bar, talking to the new manageress Jemma who also pointed out her partner clearing tables it was clear to see why the place was so welcoming. Both the managers were full of energy and were talking to me as if they'd known me for years!
The food came out very quickly considering how busy the place looked. I had the beef and ale pie whilest my partner had nachos - both of which were throughly enjoyable and offered excellent value for money think the total including drinks was about �12!
The only thing i would say is the pub looks tired and could do with a sprouse up although it did look cleaner (especially the toilets) from my previous visit and with the addition of the pool table i have decided to overlook the tiredness and would definately be going back!
