We came here in passing on the way home from the butcher snd we are glad we stopped. It seemed like a cool spot with outdoor seating and indoor seating but looked like a local hot spot. When we walked in we were instantly greeted and the guy who take care of us was very helpful and service oriented. He shared with us his favorite items as well as customer favorites which helped us narrow down our choices from the large menu. The food was amazing! I got the hash sandwich which had the perfect crunch, juiciness, and satisfaction while my wife got the Nutella waffle was Rich, savory and delicious! The only complaint was the fries were awful. They felt like I got left over let me finish this batch of fries. Lots were stuck together, they didn't have a crisp soft crunch or taste good. It because I was so satisfied with the bash sandwich I didn't feel dissatisfied. I'd come back but make sure my fries are better. read more

We have been here a few times since their recent update/grand opening. The burgers have been soo good with the beer battered fries and their fry sauce. I'd recommend just that, but the waffles are to die for. The last few times I've gotten the Biscoff focused Founder's Fav waffle. The staff all have been patient, happy, considerate and swift. The restaurant is currently inside and clean and the menu has a good amount of options. You order at the cashier and then they bring you your food to your table. read more

Little Acorn - Waffle Love sign at the Little Acorn Restaurant - Sandwiches Near Me - Spanish Fork, Utah

I don't care what the reviews look like. This place is a gem and I highly recommend it! The inside is like flash of the past as it sports an old retro diner theme. Staff was super friendly. The food itself was AMAZING! Ordered a double cheeseburger combo with a marshmallow shake and shared a grilled ham and cheese with onion rings with coworkers. Everything was absolutely phenomenal! Please give this place a shot and support your local businesses! read more

A favorite stop since childhood. Too many things changing in the wrong direction. New impersonal order tablet. Ordering was easy enough. Nearly empty restaurant. Food took 20+ minutes. Fries were COLD and undercooked. Veggie sandwich was missing several regular ingredients; mushrooms and cheese. Super disappointing stop. read more

Little Acorn - Cold and undercooked on delivery. 20 minutes after ordering. - Sandwiches Near Me - Spanish Fork, Utah

This a road stop joint on Rt6 with seating in and out. I love this location and set-up and if a few years younger would buy it and do it right, so much potential. I had the pastrami burger as I was looking for something better than Iceberg chain but was disappointed as Iceberg is better. The burger was tiny with thin overcooked piece of pastrami. The cheese burger might feed a child. Not much investment in the facility and looks run down. It's a family run business with no future unless the truck traffic improves. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover! At first glance, it doesn't look open and super easy to pass up BUT the food was so good! We ordered a Philly sandwich combo & a cheeseburger. Both burgers were flavorful with perfectly toasted bread and well seasoned crunchy fries. Inside looks a bit run down but still does the job, and the staff was very nice. Highly recommend if you want a good burger a little outside of the congested area of Spanish Fork, just before hitting the canyon read more

At first glance, we were not sure if the place was open. The little acorn was very hit and miss with the food. Their burger was good and had a nice thick piece of bacon on it. The other people in my group did not like their food. This place is old and rundown. The table we sat at had at least seven flies, constantly bothering us, no matter what we did. The water dispenser in the soda machine was broken as well as the paper towel dispensers in the bathroom. They should really go around and just fix everything that's broken. read more

Anytime I head up Spanish fork canyon, I make sure to stop here. The food is great and the so are the prices for he amount they give you. This is a small, but cozy diner that provides a lot of jobs for the local youth. It seems like every time I go in there, there are new faces. The staff is always great and so nice. They give you a discount if you pay cash, which is nice. I love their tots, English chips, and fries so much. They have really good fry sauce too. read more

The shadow fighter is amazing. The tater tots also are perfectly done. Their shakes were great as well. The man helping us was very pleasant. The building and inside is a little old and run down, but it feels old-timey. I would say the meal was a little on the pricey side but is well worth it. read more

Food was excellent! Fresh made bread toasted on my sandwich what a treat! I ordered the acorn cheesesteak sandwich and it was delicious. I also got a thick Carmel shake just like the old fashioned dinners use to make. I also bought a loaf of their homemade bread what more could you ask for! I have driven by this little drive-in literally hundreds of times, I'm so glad I took the time to stop and try it! If you're in the area stop you won't regret it. read more

The food went downhill used to be good. I stopped there tonight after a long time since the last time it was horrible I thought maybe a bad cook. But it wasn't just a restaurant going bad. I ordered the chicken sandwich meal it used to be my favorite but now horrible, no meat and the bread was drier tha a piece of wood. Never agian. read more

From the outside, the Little Acorn reminds me of the forts I used to build as a child. But when you get past the rough exterior, you'll find amazing food! We drove through this weekend and got to experience what the locals eat-and I'm sure glad we did. The fries are phenomenal-seasoned to perfection, cooked up just right and served fresh. Of course, they are accompanied by Utah's famous fry sauce (mayo and ketchup mixture) which just makes them that much more endearing. The burgers were also fantastic-just right in all aspects. Service was friendly too. It started off a little shaky when the person taking our order asked us to repeat everything. But the extra time to repeat it all paid off-they did get it right. And everything was ready fairly quickly. We will be passing through this part of town a bit this summer, and we plan to make the Little Acorn a regular stop! read more

I showed up and didn't have to wait. I was greeted by a pubescent ass who took my order. They did not have any of the food I wanted, and he got pissed at me because plan A, plan B, and plan C were out of stock and I didn't know what to order at this point. Another ass hat employee came to the cashier and began mocking me because I was taking long. I settled on some chicken tenders. Nine dollars for three. More expensive than canes. They brought it out quick. I bit into my tender and immediately was greeted with the flavor of crude oil. I look at my friend and he has the same face as a Vietnam medic. He had bitten his into cartilage or a tendon. I had the courage to continue eating mine, until I bit into a meniscus. I could not penetrate the meat, and it sprung back into shape like a rubber band. The same thing happened to my second friend. Three out of the three tenders were literally half tendon and not edible. I spent $4.50 on some ligaments. My friend got a whole meal and I don't even think they cooked the fries. They put a tomato on his chicken for some reason. We ended up throwing it all away. We spent a combined 23 dollars and lost it all. As we left, tweedle Dee and tweedle dumb were sitting on their phones while a family waited in line. I was sad because it was like watching a lamb to slaughter. I feel guilty for not warning them of the sludge they were going to consume. My two friends and I left literally feeling ill at the tiny amount we actually ate. We decided to go to McDonald's to cleanse our stomachs. Yes McDonald's is a better option. I want a refund please. read more

Best shakes ever. Amazing customer service, and the sandwiches on homemade bread are 10/10. I will definitely be going back.

The greatest little place for some lunch on our way up to go fishing. We had a grilled ham and cheese and a turkey Swiss sandwich. The kids got an Oreo shake sorry didn't take pictures of it. My fiancé has fond memories of coming here with his grandpa and it was sweet to hear him share the stories while we waited for our food. It's nice to see a local business sustain the test of time. We will for sure be back there are so many other menu things I want to try. read more

Great burger and onion rings, looked appealing and tasted even better. Definitely stop by if you get the chance.

Typically good food and great shakes but this place is filthy. It's been the same since I was a kid... We give it a try every few years and unfortunately it doesn't change. The owner should put a little money in the place. read more

A little off the beaten path, and a gem of a find! My family (even the 5 and 18mo old) love the sea burger! Their fries are delicious and seasoned well, and their onion rings are the perfect mix of crisp batter dipped outside and sweet tender (not soggy) onion inside! They have a delicious hamburger! For the price of fish and chips, I would take a hard pass considering the fish is quite small (but it is halibut) and their tartar sauce is delicious! The staff has always been friendly and professional! read more

Came here to meet with a friend snd their family and had the oddest meal experience ever! The place looks grungy and not in a good way. The person we interacted with was extremely peculiar and seemed like he was calculating every request for more napkins or an additional to go brown paper bag (I didn't even know that was a thing). I also noticed that the older women with sitting atop a food bucket in the back just sitting there which I found a little peculiar. We all got the weirdest vibe from the guy, the environment (think of the culinary version of The Shining) and the food was barely one star. read more

Good food! Small little diner tucked at the mouth of the Spanish Fork Canyon. I enjoy country diners so I'm a little biased.

I love the food at Little Acorn. It's wonderful American burger and sandwich fare all made with fresh baked bread. The shakes are good too! Enjoyable. read more

It's debatably 3 to 4 star food, but I couldn't forgive myself if I gave it under 4. Little Acorn is a family tradition. I don't know why, but it started at the now gone Pleasant Grove location. We stumbled upon it and were amazed that they offered Chinese and American food, along with a fish tank and great fry sauce. Then one day the PG one turned into a Pho restaurant that surprisingly offered the Little Acorn menu as well. Unfortunately they dropped the Little Acorn menu and now only do Pho. Enough about the PG location though, this one is now the only place you will find the Shadow Fighter. A burger on home made bread with ham as well. The burger meat is good, a step above any other fast food place, and the price is reasonable. $6.99 gets you a Shadow Fighter, drink and fries. The fries are better than your average fast food as well, and the fry sauce is excellent. They have other great food on the menu as well, bacon cheese burgers, chicken tenders, fish? (I'm too scared to eat fish at a fast food place in Utah), english chips, and more. I've had several different things here over the years and never been let down. The atmosphere is phenomenal. I don't think they've changed the interior since the 70's. You get a fish tank, odd paintings of rabbits on the wood paneling, painting of what appear to be old England streets, and all sorts of other kinds of odd decor. They've got a drive thru and ample outdoor seating as well. We stop by here just about any time we are on our way to visit my girlfriends family down in Manti and won't be stopping anytime soon. It's the perfect place to stop by on the way into and out of the canyon. Little Acorn is awesome, and will hopefully stay here for a long, long time. I'm happy that I stumbled on it after mourning the close of the PG one. Life just wouldn't be the same without the Shadow Fighter. read more

The little Acorn actually has good food, but it is so run down (especially on the outside) it's hard for me to go there. It has always been so nice in that area, now it is trashy looking. When they clean it up I will definitely go back. read more

We use to stop here as kids many moons ago when we use to drive through Spanish Fork. I stopped by a few days ago for a quick bite and to relive some old memories. Sadly the burger and fries I ordered were pretty bland. All frozen stuff, nothing special. The decor still seems to be the same from 25 years ago. The high school kids working weren't very friendly either, or just didn't care. Too bad this place has remained stagnant. Hopefully one day it will come back to life. (Photo included) read more

Zero is stars is not an option. $6.99 for a pastrami burger with the thinnest driest patty I have even seen, two thin slices of packaged pastrami, American "Swiss" cheese, shredded lettuce, and fry sauce, which I had requested not to put on. $0.81 to sub "homemade" toasted wheat bread, with being informed of the upcharge. Then I was told there was a $0.35 charge for a cup of water I requested for my sit down $8 burger and no bathrooms available! I am only sorry the photo did not attach correctly to document the experience. This local dive has earned my worst review. Consumer beware! This is definitely not a local extablishment worth supporting! read more

We had to go to SLC and stopped on the way back to CO. The food is great, onion rings are crispy, not greased logged, thoroughly enjoyed the shakes. Portions, well let's just say we had plenty to snack on for the trip home. Friendly customer service, which is a nice change from the chain based fast food restaurants we are subjected to in our area. We absolutely look forward to going again. Note: As many people have referenced, the appearance is a bit unkept, but since it's a drive-thru, one doesn't have to look at the exterior for long. Maybe try and focus more on the fact, what they don't have in aesthetic appeal, they more than make up in quality and customer care and that it's an independently owned small business, that's been fortunate to remain open during these less than friendly economic times. Support small businesses. read more

Is this the cleanest restaurant to go to? No. Not even close. In fact, it's probably the grossest and dirtiest restaurant I've been to-and yet I've been there too many times to count. This place RULES. It's so good. Just don't look around or maybe get your meal to go. The bread is fresh, the shakes are ridiculous, the fries are crispy and the burgers are greasy. Little Acorn is worth a stop, even if it looks like an unsolved murder was committed here. read more

Fries and fries sauce were great. The kids loved the chocolate milkshake. But stay away from bacon cheeseburger. It was the driest burger I can remember having. Buns were old & hard. read more

This place is from the dirty twilight zone. My order was messed up on and the guy that cooks said that he knew what I ordered and that I was wrong and he wasn't going to fix it until the person that actually took my order came in said no this is not what was ordered and I can show you(Awkward)But he let me know that next time he would not fix it but he would this time. He was extremely rude just a nasty person. I will never go back here ever again this place is extremely dirty I don't know how they are even in business without being shut down. read more

Made a quick visit for shakes and didn't try the food. The sandwiches and burgers others ordered looked and smelled great so I'm going to bump my rating a bit assuming it's all really that good. The "famous" fruit shakes were just okay. The ice cream was fantastic, creamy and decadent, but my peach shake tasted very little like peaches and I found exactly 1/2 frozen or canned (I couldn't tell which) peach in it. I kind of had to use my imagination for the peach part, to be honest. My husband felt similarly about his banana shake. The place feels kind of like a So Cal taqueria meets a Texas flea market, and is in need of deep cleaning. Despite this it does have a certain charm. The counter staff was very friendly and eager to serve which goes a long way. read more

This was a fantastic lunch stop. It's my first time here and I'll come back for sure. They could have got 5 stars, but I ordered the pastrami and hamburger sandwich and was really disappointed that there was only a tiny thin slice of pastrami. I couldn't even taste it. It was a great sandwich but next time I'll just get the burger. Maybe they ran out of pastrami. The fries are thick and fry sauce is a plus. read more
