The very popular Acoustic Grill in downtown Picton is a pub-style restaurant with a warm atmosphere, great service, and live music events.
Life with live acoustic music and good food is not worth living for, and that’s why we’re always on the lookout for places that combine the best of both worlds.
So when I heard the Acoustic Grill in Picton had the best burger in Picton, I made a special trip to see for myself.
Guess what?…. It was a great burger!
I’ve always been a patron of music venues, and it’s not often that you find one that offers great music and delicious food, especially the fries at the same time.
The Acoustic Grill, with its intimate and rustic setting, certainly did not disappoint. So, let me share my experience of this perfect blend of music and dinner.

The Acoustic Grill First Impressions
The minute I stepped into the Acoustic Grill, I felt like I was in an Ireland pub.
The wooden floors and walls, low lighting, and cozy booths make for a warm and intimate atmosphere that instantly feels welcoming.
It’s the kind of place where you can relax, forget about everything else, and just enjoy the live music and food.
The Acoustic Live Music Friday
One of the big draws of the Acoustic Grill is the music entertainment. The venue features some of the best acoustic musicians from the region, and I was blown away by the talent of the performers.
From rock to blues and country, there’s something for everyone, and it’s an experience that’s hard to replicate.
I loved how the musicians interacted with the audience during breaks, chatting and taking requests from the patrons.
There’s an undeniable energy and vibe that makes the Acoustic Grill a unique and unforgettable experience.

Foodie Haven
Of course, you can’t enjoy good music without good food, and the Acoustic Grill doesn’t disappoint on this front either.
The menu features classic pub-grub items like burgers, nachos, and poutine, but with a gourmet twist. The ingredients are fresh and high-quality, and the dishes are presented beautifully.
My go-to here is both the burger with goat cheese and the fried chicken sandwich.
And of course, they have a great selection of local craft beer, cider, and Prince Edward County wine to wash it all down.
Friendly And Unpretentious
One of the things I appreciated about the Acoustic is the laid-back and unpretentious vibe.
Owners Steve Purtelle & Jenny Leigh always make our evening memorable.
The acoustic grill staff is friendly and welcoming, and they don’t make you feel rushed or pressured.
Our server seemed a bit nervous at first but had great knowledge of the county and she loosened up afterwards.
You can take your time enjoying a great meal and the music, and they’ll leave you to it. Plus, the fact that it’s a smaller venue means that you’re guaranteed a more intimate and personal experience.
