The Acoustic Cafe in Falkirk

While we waited for a train at Grahamston station, my wife went in search of coffee, She returned a short time later with a mint tea, a coffee and couple of breakfast rolls, they were hot and delicious, obviously just made with fresh ingredients. The cafe proprietor accompanied my wife as she had too much to carry comfortably. What a gem of a find. You won't be disappointed.

Przepyszna kawa przemiła atmosfera i wspaniała obsluga. Gorąco polecam ♥️ czysto i bardzo urokliwa kafejka można się naładowanac dobra energią 👍

An atmospheric place with excellent food and even better coffee. The girls of the crew smiling, friendly and open. Highly recommend.

Independent cafe serving good food in a comfortable environment with friendly service. What's not to like?

Great coffee, nice food and excellent service

Came in for breakfast on the final morning of a 3-night stay in Falkirk. I had a full breakfast and Mrs D had scrambled eggs on toast. Both were really good, well cooked and good value for money. The full breakfast had sausage (square and link),bacon, black pudding, haggis, fried egg, tomato and baked beans, and a side of toast and butter. We also had coffee, which was very good, too. Great place, friendly and cheerful staff, lovely venue and a great way to end our visit.

Visited the Acoustic Cafe today for the first time. That, in itself, is quite surprising since Falkirk is my home town and I earned a living through most of my working life playing the guitar. Surprising, and then not so surprising, since I’ve given Falkirk town centre a wide berth of recent years, hating to acknowledge what’s become of the place. Visit by all means if all you need is a hairdo, a tattoo or some secondhand clothing. Nuff said. The Acoustic Cafe is very central, small but beautifully formed. I believe live music of the acoustic guitar variety happens there regularly though I can’t vouch for the quality of that. The staff were pleasant enough and the cafe was quiet. On a freezing bank holiday Monday the town was very quiet. However, the scone was ok (bit chewy) as were the jam and cream. The star of the show was the coffee - best flat white I’ve had in months if not ever. Strong, flavoursome coffee and a créma you might have safely danced on. First class in every respect. I may well return here on my now more regular visits to the town. I could do much worse and so could you 😊.

I ordered a Cheese & Red Onion Panini with Coleslaw and Crisps on the side (£5.95) and my girlfriend got the £7.50 meal deal which included a Tuna, Cheese & Red Onion Panini with Coleslaw and Crisps on the side as well as their Creamy Chicken and Vegetable Broth Soup. We also got two cans of coke (£1.50 each). The staff were friendly however we felt service could have been faster as the café wasn’t at capacity. My girlfriend plays guitar herself, so she really appreciated the decor/vibe. Overall, we would return if we were ever in the area again.

Great place, lovely staff and love the nachos!

Great independent café with a guitar theme. Good coffee and food, with friendly staff. Now has outside area, (though mostly in shade).

Very good Coffee, friendly Service and cozy atmosphere!

I pop in here for a coffee when I’m in town, the service is first class and the staff are really lovely and friendly. Coffee is 5 star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ definitely worth a visit.

What an excellent night. Celebrated a 60 birthday and 55 year’s anniversary together here. Staff were amazing and attentive. Food was really good and they easily catered for allergies so everyone could eat comfortably. A really relaxed night. Thank you. Everyone talking about having a great night.

I had one of the best baked potatoes ever. It was enormous and filled with a lovely mixture of cheeses -cheddar and mozzarella. There was a lovely tomato salad with it on the plate. They also have gluten free bread so I could have had any of their delicious sounding toasties. The cafe has lovely, helpful staff and is light and bright. It is also dog friendly.

What a lovely place to drink coffee/tea or have a bowl of warm soup! We had mac and cheese and it was really tasty too. The staff was friendly and really nice. 10/10 Recomended

Small but comfortable cafe it has a good menu which includes an all day breakfast, very good. The coffee is also very good. Service is friendly and efficient, also a decent selection of cakes.

What a brilliant find. Great food, freshly prepared. Fast service and very friendly staff. Great location and very reasonable prices. Can’t recommend enough.

Pricey and poor food. Ordered a cheese panini which cost £5.90 and was basically just a microwaved cheese baguette

Mimo, że to klimatyczna kawiarenka z pyszną kawą i czasami ktoś gra tam na żywo, to oczekiwanie ponad pół godziny na kawę jest mało przyjemne. Byliśmy tam kilkanaście razy, ale dziś to był ostatni raz. Wyszliśmy niedoczekawszy się na nasze zamówienie. Zmarnowane pół godziny.

Buzzy ,very friendly place. You'd be comfortable on your own. Very busy at lunch time. Delicious paninis and coffee all served with really welcoming staff. Good range of drinks and cakes. Outside decking for warmer days.

Outside seating great for this warm weather. Scones and clotted cream were delicious.

Lovely wee cafe in Falkirk. Great coffee, great folk, lots of guitars on the walls (most for sale). Open Mic on a Thursday 6-7pm.

This is a hidden gem in Falkirk. As a musician I felt drawn to this wee place. I chose the full breakfast which did not disappoint and the coffee was excellent, not to mention the prices which are really reasonable. Last and by no means least the ambiance and staff made the whole experience complete and I for one will definitely be back, thank you guys.

First visit as a local. Very friendly staff and good service. Quirky cafe ! The two all day breakfasts for £7.25 each were not really worth it, especially the vegan one, which was just ok ! Both were served on cold plates ( which I hate ) and certain items were cold. The vegan hash brown was so cold in the middle, it could have been fried from frozen ? Beans cold ! Place wasn't busy ! Yes the staff were very apologetic and tried to resolve matters, but their efforts didn't really work as it just dried up the remaining food on the plate ! By the time the heated food arrived, our tea had gone cold and there was no offer of a fresh replacement. Tip - If you are vegan, just check that they will actually use different pans for your vegan "fry up".

Didn't know this was here, saw it on our way to a well-known chain coffee shop so came here instead. Very nice flat white, and there was a breakfast roll and coffee meal deal. Good coffee at a decent price.

Great friendly hidden gem for us. We went on open mic night and everyone was so welcoming. Will be back 100%. Lovely scone excellent tea and milkshakes. Really good value.

Brilliant full breakfast with excellent tea and coffee. Really nice atmosphere.

Highly recommended. Fantastic food and service. Dog friendly. Great place and will be my go to when visiting family in Falkirk.

Just passing through Falkirk and happened to spot this place when we parked the car. Came in to see if they did breakfast and ended up loving the place. The coffee was really lovely and beautifully made, the soup was incredible and the baking seems to be homemade. It’s also super clean and beautifully decorated. The servers were all really friendly and took the time to help us out with suggestions to find a baby shower gift when I asked. If we are passing through Falkirk again we will definitely be back!

Lovely wee cafe, visited here for the first time, even though I live close by. I had the tradditional tester, a fried egg roll, which was dissapointing it was only a single egg, however, I was offered the choice of either a soft or crispy roll. The coffee was a bit on the weak side so if you like your coffee strong, get the extra shot. That all said, the cafe has a good atmosphere and the staff really friendly. Love the instruments on the wall, its kind of quirky, would we return, deffinately.

Stopped in Falkirk for a quick lunch on our way home. The cafe was very busy (people with dogs too so pet friendly!) Ordered their £5 lunch deal Pannini and Soup and also a Cajun chicken baked potato. They warned us coming in that it was a little wait on food due to busy and short staff but we were in no real rush and didn’t take long at all. Their little waitress was fab too! Would recommend and come back again when I’m Falkirk. 😊

Best coffee in Falkirk and food reasonable prices and good. Pleasant and friendly staff,and nice background music 🎶.

The best coffee in Falkirk. Lovely atmosphere and friendly staff. Definitely worth a visit. And they allow dogs. Perfect place.

A great coffee shop with power outlets available.

Called in for lunch. Ordered soup and toasted panini. All very nice and tasty it came with crisps and coleslaw. Coffee was nice and strong too. Friendly service. Nice quirky place, worth a visit.

This is a great wee place! Fab food, staff and ambiance with live music weekly. The food is freshly prepared. Can't recommend highly enough and it is just across the road from Grahamston Station.

I have used this wee gem of a cafe ànd have never been disappointed when it comes to both food and service. Sharon is always happy to help.

Cosy and very friendly atmosphere

Great place! Super friendly staff. Generally quiet atmosphere featuring enjoyable acoustic tunes. Yanks are welcome! BREAKFAST ALL DAY!!! We really enjoyed the food including the gluten-free bread and sausage. We’ve been touring Scotland for a month. The Acoustic Cafe has been a highlight. TEN STAR RATING!!!

Decent food and coffee. Very friendly staff

Love this wee cafe, ideal when I take my girl to dance class next door.

Great breakfasts and fantastic atmosphere

Was lovely and relaxed ,tasty cake too, a wee treat for us after a hospital visit 😀 really good ,class and they sell guitars too

Nice unusual Cafe Includes a good selection of Guitars for Sale I was told they have Open Mic Nights Good idea support your local independent Traders. 5* and adjacent to the Car park..

Great food and very friendly staff.

Lovely food & drink and friendly staff.

Popped in during Open Mic night last night. We had a dog and a baby in pram. Made to feel very welcome by all even though we were taking up a lot of room and our little baby wanted to join in "singing" The coffee and cakes were just as nice as the staff. Top place!

Fantastic bagel with bacon and cream cheese.

I totally loved this place. Popped in to waste some time until a train arrived. Was genuinely pleased at the really nice staff, the feel of the place and the great coffee and good food. Totally recommend it.

Lovely cafe. Soup of the day - minestrone -was gorgeous. Great little hidden gem.

Excellent, reasonably priced food and coffee.

Absolutely amazing 😍 bacon , brie and cranberry toastie is outstanding will defo be back and milkshakes are gorgeous, lady was very welcoming 💜

Every visit to this amazing cafe has always been great. Staff (Jenni in particular) are always helpful, the food is always superb and coffee's are also great! Keep up the good work

Dropped in for a quick bite. Excellent service and nice chilled atmosphere. Food was decent too.

Great little place. Give it a try.

I like this place because it is something different and on a music theme. Coffee excellent as are the breakfast rolls. Staff very pleasant and always checking your order is ok and your visit a pleasent one.

First breakfast out after lockdown, excellent service, excellent food. Staff were very attentive and made sure we were looked after. Lovely little cafe.

Great place to meet friends and have a chat great coffee and home baking

What to say....ITS AMAZING. There is hot chocolate, coffees, juice for the kids, smoothies basically anything you could wish for in a cafe

I go here regularly with a couple of my friends. It is out of the way and is usually quiet. We go here occasionally for a coffee and chat and we'll be going here soon for a wee breakfast snack. Their Christmas decorations this year are certainly bright.

Very friendly and great environment for a snack and a cuppa.

Visited with hubby today for lunch. Served promptly, by very friendly staff . Soup was delicious, warming and filling. The atmosphere was welcoming. We will certainly return . cafe was very clean with all COVID restrictions adhered too.

Always a good coffee, no food for me today but the best empire biscuit

Pleasant visit. Only in for takeaway but enjoyed my coffee and was suitably priced.

Brilliant cappuccino and macaroni cheese and great value and service

We are a retired couple who have used this cafe recently. The Covid safety measures are great. The loos are spotless. The staff a joy, very friendly. We can recommend the coffee but today’s shout out is to the delicious Biscoff Cheese cake. It is outstanding and is homemade by one of the young ladies that work there. A great wee gem of a place

This is fab place to pop in to. The food is great and the service is ace. Friendly service and excellent surroundings. Enjoy!!

Plus : Just had lunch here for the first time, and it was lovely, staff are friendly and helpful, sandwich was great, small and cosy wee place. Flaw: After we had sat down, over the hour we were in i counted ten people coming into the cafe with no masks on and not one of the staff asked them to put on a mask, the covid virus is still with us and spreading and the irresponsible people coming into a cafe without a mask on is shocking, i understand some people are exempt from wearing them but ten people mostly young to middle age! i don't believe for one minute that they were all exempt. The place is lovely but in this hard time we are all in everyone needs to take responsibility for their actions.

Friendly staff really enjoyed the coffee and rolls

Pros: nice modern decor, clean Cons: staff, parking and choice Went in as family of 4 half an hour before closing to be told "we close in half an hour so you will need to make sure you are out by then" extremely rude. If we were not soaked to the bone I would have left! However we wanted coffee, hot chocolate and toasties. Ordered 2 lattes, 2 hot chocolates and 2 toasties to be told "the kitchen is closed" and we were offered cake instead. Why advertise closing at a certain time if you are closing the kitchen and rushing paying customers half and hour before closing? Coffee was ok the hot chocolates takes like warm brown water. Defintely did not leave feeling recharged. Will not be back.

Interesting place, especially for guitarists. Food is good for anyone and the atmosphere is pleasant.

Brilliant find, nice relaxed dog 🐶 friendly atmosphere. The 🎸 are something else, worth the visit to Falkirk.

Fantastic quickie lunch whilst waiting on my train. You can’t beat a good toastie and bit of traybake. Very friendly staff even though we came in at a busy time were very attentive

Number 1 coffee shop in falkirk and out standing and amazing your food and staff is the best and helpful with learning disability that's way I go back in falkirk for worlds number 1 coffee I be back today

Always a pleasant experience place spotless and very good coffee /cake

Lovely place, great staff and nice coffee. Really like the guitars on the walls, gives it real character.

Great service and atmosphere, coffee is good too

I have been here a few times and it has always been amazing! Superb service from all the staff and the food is all top quality. The homemade cakes are a must-try. This is definitely a place to visit for anyone. They all do an amazing job!

Stopped in for soup and a sandwich on a cold day. The food was lovely and tasty and the staff were really friendly and dogs are welcome. I would love to check out the acoustic brunch on a Sunday if I'm passing through again.

Only discovered this place a few months ago and now visit regularly for coffee and a bacon roll or toasted teacake. It's very small and friendly with an interesting selection of guitars on the walls.

We have visited here few times and always found the staff to be really pleasant and the coffee is very good. They offer quite a range of drinks/food and we haven't made a Sunday brunch event which looks great and we must try and get along there.

The staff were lovely. The service was fast, the tables and bathroom were clean and the food was cheap and delicious. I will definitely be returning.

Live music every Thursday. I really enjoyed it. Cheerful, fun. I've come to this amusement several times.

Nice little place. Good food, clean environment. Lovely to be around such beautiful guitars.

Poped in for coffee pleasant helful staff, free to read newspaper,free WiFi, very cheap coffee good tasting, music in the background no too loud, tastefully decorated.

Lovely place for coffee and a bite to eat, well worth a visit

The staff are friendly and helpful. They live dogs and make them very comfortable they food is very good. Loved it

Lovely place with nice food and pleasant staff.

Love💕 this wee cafe , lovely relaxing atmosphere, very clean, very friendly lovely staff & always helpful & tried so many items from coffee to homemade soup to rolls to home baking,cheesecake & everything has been delish & visit regularly now, Highly recommend 👏

User friendly and great coffee.

First time here last week never knew it was even there really modern cafe super dog friendly spotlessly clean great coffee and food. staff were super friendly 100% recommended 👌

Seen this place a few times when i was up the town ken so thought i would be able to take my acoustic daughter with me.

Great spot for coffee and a bite to eat. Really great staff and service. Open mic on a Thursday is friendly and open to all.

Went here for a late breakfast and coffee Nice atmosphere and friendly staff Very reasonably priced Both me and boyfriend had the egg and bacon bagel which were excellent Coffee was superb Will definitely be returning

My mother loved your cheesecake 😀

Was so looking forward to our visit today, entered to be told quite bluntly by male member of staff that he was on his own and we would have to wait at least 20 mins. We were ok with the wait and asked if he could help us with change for the car park so we could wait but the response was off hand and again we were told he was to busy. We left and won't be returning. Owners really need to look at staffing of this cafe, this might help with customer service.

Nice ambient atmosphere, very polite and efficient staff. Good cakes lovely coffee. Great wee place unless your an old fogey.

Had a nice lunch, with hubby and son. The young man on duty could not have been more helpful when I explained it was my first visit. Hubby went for a bacon roll which he says was very good. Son and I both had panninis which were delicious. Scone with butter also very good. Small eatery but good food and well mannered, extremely pleasant staff certainly made our visit enjoyable. We will go again.

Super friendly staff...lovely food

First visit today. Positive: great coffee, friendly service, good prices, nice atmosphere, dog friendly, human friendly, nice sarnies. Negative: limited food choices after 2pm. We'll be going again, maybe a bit earlier next time.
