Meantime, the Acorn On Forest, provides great hearty meals in a fireseide setting, and has regular entertainment provided by local artists - so there is always something different to enjoy when coming here.
Highly recommended (Gaz), this is a great little Pub that should be on your travelling list when exploring the great attractions of Mount Dandenong
Publicans Aileen and Mal Leather have excelled themselves again, providing a great tavern atmosphere for the locals in The Basin.
And it's not just their efforts at the Acorn on Forest alone, its their whole approach to supporting and promoting the local community which makes having an ale, and meeting up with friends and colleagues at this venue so welcoming. You get a real warm, inviting feeling immediately upon entering the quaintly presented but beautifully decorated bar and meals areas. And there are private areas for special occasions too. The decor is so well presented, that people have their weddings as well as their reception right here in the Acorn On Forest!
Ideally located right in the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges, Mal also arranges tours for newcomers in the area, up into the nearby surrounding tourist attractions that make the Dandenongs one of the most brilliant local natural areas to visit when in the Melbourne region. In fact, being the host he is, he can arrange tours to any area of interest that his patrons want to have organised.
