The Acorn, a MICHELIN Recommended and award-winning restaurant, brings a fresh, modern approach to vegetable-forward dining in the heart of Vancouver’s Main Street. Known for its creative, locavore-driven menu, The Acorn delivers an unforgettable dining experience using locally sourced, peak-season ingredients. With options for vegans, vegetarians, and gluten-free diners, even the most dedicated carnivores leave satisfied.

Our commitment to sustainability runs deep. In our zero-waste kitchen and bar, every part of the ingredient shines—from the skins and stems to pits and peels—transformed into inventive dishes and drinks. We’re proud of our close relationships with local organic farmers, foragers, winemakers, and distillers, ensuring that 99% of what you enjoy on the plate (and sometimes the plate itself!) is grown, harvested, or crafted right here in BC and Western Canada. Signature cocktails shine while local wines showcase the harmony of Terroir to plate.

    12/10 stars if we could! Absolutely loved the entire tasting menu experience. Each dish + pallet opener/cleanser was delectable. That they’re a ‘no waste’ restaurant evidently boosts their creativity and is so inspiring. Absolute gem - with full confidence to endorse the vegetarian menu to exceed expectations and satisfy anyone! Cannot wait to return. From start to finish, loved it!

    Service was bang on at every step, everything was fantastic and even when we didn’t finish one dish because people weren’t a fan of radicchio an amazing sub was brought without asking. Drinks were great and all the other dishes were amazing in presentation and flavour!
