Perfect for a weekend arvo beer in the sun. I've been here a couple of times and was surprised by the prices they charged for a bottle of beer. Without tap beer on offer, you're stuck for choice, and end up having to fork out more than necessary for a stubby. Hosting live music most nights of the week, usually of the acoustic persuasion, Bazoo caters for those in the area who aren't keen on drinking at the many licensed hotel/gaming megaplexes.

Located in a renovated cottage in the heart of The Basin, The Acorn on Forest is a prime example of…read moreThe Basin's growing popularity as a little hill's hideaway. With the suburb reporting recent booms in property value, and the freeway only 10 minutes away, The Basin has grown from a small village on the way to the more touristy area of the hills to a trendy little town of its own . The Acorn of Forest has more of a 'Wine Bar" feel to it than it's neighbouring 'Good old-fashioned pub' the Oak Tree. With a focus on quality dining and weekend breakfasts, you could say it's the 'bouquet' to the Oak Trees 'bucket'. The menu features dishes such as Quail, Veal and Kangaroo and while you can expect to pay a little more for your meal than at other nearby pubs, the Acorn is all about Quality over affordability. Popular with functions and parties, The Acorn also hosts live music on weekends, usually from a rotating roster of local favourites.

They did have a nice beer garden, and some rather friendly staff as well. However, the place itself really didn't do much for me, particularly with the range of beers available, and the prices that they were charging. There really wasn't all that much of a choice, and in the end it is probably a good thing that I don't actually live in Ringwood.

As the Urban sprawl envelopes the area, it's only logical that the demand for places like The Firehouse would pop up, and from what I've seen, the place is in high demand. Every time I have been here it has been fully booked up, and deservedly so. The food is fantastic, the service is quite good, and the menu boasts dishes you won't find anywhere else in Ringwood. For an experience such as this however, there is a cost. The Firehouse is also one of the most expensive places to eat in the area, with a lunch consisting of one meal, one drink and a coffee chalking up an easy $40. I was there last week, and had the omelette for lunch, with a beer and a coffee. The omelette was sensational, full of Italian cheese and sautéed mushrooms. Not oily or overly salty, it was a good lunch size and left room for me to check out the superb dessert menu. With a group of 8 of us, I must note that the service was great until the desserts came out, and we were given another tables order. This left a couple of us with no dessert, and the staff were forced to come and apologize, then leave those without dessert waiting until well after the rest of us were finished until they received theirs. We were compensated with free coffee though, which was nice.

The last of the restaurants is the Firehouse, a rather posh looking establishment with vines on the walls and big glass windows to look out to the road. While not the most appealing of sights, it does fill the space with amazing light. I'd recommend this as the special occasion eatery rather than simply a spot to grab a bite. The meals are pricey, so if you're after something small head to the shopping centre. The ambiance and service of the place, however, is amazing, along with after dinner drinks in a lounge area found upstairs. The staff are wonderful and good at recommending dishes and prompt delivery of fabulous feasts.
