This is a classic old Cincinnati place. They had live music on the patio, which made it really fun. The servers were very friendly and helpful. The food and drinks were good pub fare. I'd go back for the whole experience again.

I reserved with open table and the hostess could not find our reservation. They did find us a seat but it was very confusing.

Always love a visit to Arnold's. It was packed with live music that evening, but staff were well prepared for a busy crowd, extremely attentive and courteous.

Their outdoor four-season courtyard is one of my all-time favorite places to have a meal. The menu is pretty simple, but the food and service are always good.

It was really busy for a Tuesday. Our food was excellent. Our waiter was good. Two comments to make: our poor waiter was stretched thin. Only 2 people were working to take orders. Second, the one good thing about the pandemic was the space between tables. Not any more. My husband and I got to listen to the conversations on both sides of us. Getting in and out was a struggle not to knock into our neighboring tables.

What a fun evening! The polka band was great and kept everyone entertained. The food was great. I recommend the fish and chips and not just because it is lent. You get to experience history when you eat at Arnold's. Service was excellent too.

We love Arnold's - food is fantastic. Good drinks. Great crowd & outstanding local bands of all types and styles playing all the time... piano players, blues groups, horn bands and more... just a FUN place to be!

We went to Arnold’s tonight for the fish fry and polka music. While the atmosphere and food were great, the service was really poor. Our server barely checked on us, wouldn’t bus empty dishes, and I had to track her down in the restaurant to get our check, only to find her in the corner texting on her phone. The $18 fish and chips also only came with one measly, small fish fillet. We hope to have a better experience next time!

My favorite place to start Bockfest.
The Bockfest menu is always a bit different.
I had the lamb stew.

Such a cool old bar. Food is not bar food and the atmosphere is all Cincinnati. One of my favorite spots downtown for sure. Try the short ribs and thank me later.

We didn’t get food but wish we did. Fantastic Guinness Stout pour.

I love the change tipping method in the ARNOLDS BATHTUB BREW tap handle.

I love to support the staff.

Awesome atmosphere to bring friends from out of town or just visit for a good meal and drink. One of our regular stops with great art and music on top of the food, drinks and service.
