About
Acorn should lead because both official and reputation signals point the same way: this is one of the town's most distinctive serious restaurants. The official site positions it as a European restaurant in the heart of Godalming, while wider review signals consistently treat it as a place worth booking rather than just a convenient local meal.\n\nThat combination makes it the strongest flagship for this batch.
