Arnold's Lounge in St. Augustine - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Not impressed. I was told the cook makes his own hours and did not show till after 4. They were told that there was going to be a large crowd and did not prepare for it.

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, fun line dancing class Wednesday night and the food is great!!! 2 pool tables on a screened patio. Fun place!!

The bartenders could not be worse. I mean, they are terrible. Rude, no eye contact, grumpy. They all need to go. I go to a lot of bars and have been to Arnold's plenty. The new owner will not make it if he doesn't clean the house and hire competent friendly bartenders. Brutal, and it makes me sad because it has so much potential.

Chase is Greatest bartender 10/10 best green tea shot. 🙌 Will be back

Chase just made us the BEST green tea shots I’ve ever had!!! He’s super friendly and quick with the drinks! Best bartender in St. John’s county!!!

First visit on a Friday night. It was packed! Music was fantastic! Lead singers were highly energetic and a great team! The band was great too! Long sets! Short breaks! Well known dance music, easy to follow! The band sounded like the B52’s in 1989 singing “Love Shack”. Outside tables available! Pool tables in the back! Great St Augustine vibes!

Cool vibe… Road Runners Band was GREAT!!!

You can thank John Taffer for saving this place

I absolutely loved this place! Lauren was my bartender. She was incredible and friendly and made you feel at home. The cheesesreak was actual steak. Fresh fries too ...Not something frozen out of a box.It was amazing. A must if you Have not been.

Relaxing vibes with pleasant background music.

A lot fun, Karaoke night and the vibe is just wholesome and fun. Decent steak dinner for the price $20, I think just Thursdays they have this. Me and 18 yr old daughter really enjoyed ourselves.

Fun place to go, usually a vreat band

Didn’t eat there but the drinks were good and had a wide variety of musicians and genres. Very interesting and relaxing.

Not like it used to be, different crowd

I didn't try the food. The group I was with like the drinks, and there was plenty of room for us.

Good music and the service was good as well. Waitress was attentive and friendly.

Jon didn't do anything except a face lift. This place is always slammed on the weekend. I know this may hurt some feelings but they didn't need him. Arnold 's will be here for a very long time. Plus I only seen one person on the show that I have ever spoken to.. and I'm a regular.. too bad that Bar rescue if a big fraud .

My husband and I came up and across the state from Pasco county and we had a GREAT experience with Aaron the bartender Mr Natural the karaoke DJ!! The food was on point and the service was excellent!! Then you top it off with the entertainment of the karaoke with DJ Mr Natural, and you have a great night!!

It's average ...don't take the locals seats at the bar lol

Are the steaks still same as they use to be..was amazing..hope still have the butter garlic for the bake potatoes

First time visiting Arnold's with My Queen last night. Nice employees. Enjoyed the vibe and music. Unfortunately, they had only two servers taking care of a full house. Way to long to get drinks. Sadly, I had to ask for my wife's soft drink multiple times. The good music could no longer overcome the frustration, and we left. On leaving, I could not help but notice a bartender not doing much of anything. Bet those servers would love the support on the floor. Arnold's is a gold mine and in a great location. Hope it improves.

Worst bartender. Poor service. And they raised the drink prices, if you can get one! Tuesday night. Rum and coke went from $7 to $9.

No food, Patrick is always awesome!

Stopped in for a cold beer on a warm day after going to the beach. Fun atmosphere and the beer was really cold!

The place went Downhill after bar rescue Got ahold of it, just like captain Odies in mayport the prices are too high.Good music at least when it's live

Such a fun very friendly bar everyone was super nice I never had to wait for anything long

Amazing turnaround following the Bar Rescue cash infusion. still could have remodeled the restrooms

The food wasn't very good. Green beans were cold , steak was warm and the fries were hot. The baked potato was perfect, extremely hot and nice fluffy insides. The meal was served on a paper plate. The music playing could have been better too.

Not a bad place was there for karaoke and steak night on Thursday. Food was decent but service was amazing.

Burger was good, if your not a regular, you will get 2nd rate service. Had lunch, and we came back to see the band they raved about. Got here an hour early and they had saved a dozen tables, there are only about 20, for people that aren't there yet. When we asked which tables weren't saved, there was one in the gar corner. So if you're not a regualar, dont bother. If you sit at the tables they tell you not to walk to the bar and get a drink. Bar resue.....

Arnolds was so much better under the old owners. They had better,

The service was fantastic! The place was very clean! The band was Last Stand Jax and they had the place rocking. The dance floor was packed!

Stopped in a few weeks back which the Arnolds Website shows has breakfast and left to go to another place being they had no one to cook Breakfast. I thought things woukd get better after the update Why doea your website show you have breakfast on Saturday and Sunday

I have been coming here since the early 90s ,hadn't been in for a few years ,we stopped in love the renovation was pleasantly surprised, we had a nice time ,bartender was very friendly, we did not get food so I cannot rate that ,drinks were good

Great hoke in the wall local bar for drinks. Friendly bartenders.

They dont have good choices of food and drinks

First time here. I was very surprised how good the food was. It was Thursday Steak Night. The bone-in Ribeye was perfect. It was tender and juicy and great seasoning. The green beans had bacon and a smoky taste, baked potatoe was spot on. Great service, cool atmosphere. Overall just awesome. Will be back...

Great place to meet locals, shoot darts, and enjoy live bands play on the weekend's

Very friendly service. Philly cheese steak was good but the hand cut fries rocked. Very clean. Live music with a huge dance floor. 🦋😇

I love this place and miss doing the poker runs.

If i could give zero star for food, I would Stopped in on the way back from St. Augustine. Had heard it was shown on Bar Rescue. The place was nice, appeared clean both bar and dining table seating. My friend and I ordered the steak special. That was their menu for the night. It comes with baked potato and veggies. What a mistake! The steaks were not cooked correctly! My medium well was still red inside and my friends medium rare was overdone. Thought maybe just mixed up. Simple, so we switched. Nope not the case! Parts of the steak were cooked more than others. Totally uneven. My friend sent hers back. New steak for her rarer but still unevenly cooked. The steaks had an over season flavor, like too much meat tenderizer was used leaving an after taste for hours. Gross! It was grizzly and very poor quality. The side veggies (corn and green beans) right out of can and again of salted and seasoned. The only redemption was the small baked potato. For bar atmosphere it's ok but would never recommend for dining. Also, my friend's dinner had French fries instead of baked potato which she didn't ask for. If this is their attempt to attract more business it's a failure! Stay away from the food! Just received a response from the owner. They completely redo the other parties order, twice! Still was unable to get it right. The steak was terrible, unevenly cooked and flavored with tons of tenderizer ( or something) which left an after taste for hours! What I did say initially, was I was sick from the food. Definitely, avoid steak night at Arnolds!

My sister and I had the best time at Arnold's! I would suggest the burger and fries! Friendly people and staff. Christian and Wolf were really great server's! We are headed back to SC and will definitely miss this place. Thanks Arnold's for a great time!

Food was a 4 of 10, Philly cheesesteak was " where's the beef"? Not so much. Crowd and atmosphere is really appealing. Servers were friendly and as efficient as a full house would allow

Nice place. Music. Foods great. Thursday night prime rib. Come and enjoy a nice night.

Felt so welcomed and enjoyed our time. Steak night was yummy. I would agree best deal in area. Will come back for live music soon. Thanks for having us.

Awesome find. Thursday Night steak night was great! Steak was very tasty along with the baked potato, green beans and corn. It was also Karaoke night.

Great little country and southern rock bar. Karaoke is a blast. And their steak night is awesome.

We decided to have breakfast at Arnold’s today at 12 noon… Heather cooked us up some yummy French toast, sausage & eggs. Great Bloody Mary’s made by Erin 👌👍😎

Great locals spot! Be sure to order the wings, or hit up steak night every Thursday! Awesome staff all the way around, and the live music is always on point!

Went for Bedrock and it was a great experience

Didn't eat...went for drinks. Friendly service at bar. Fun crowd just having the time of their life dancing and singing along.

It was not appreciated by many who had to sit and watch a stripper dance for 30 to 40 minutes. 5 to 10 minutes for the lady's birthday would have okay. But many people were upset. They come dance and enjoy the band, but this robbed them of that time. Please don't make this a normal activity. Limit it on time. People left because it carried on so long. It could have been done much later in the evening. The band was great, and they are a major draw.

Rude staff! Especially the blonde bartender...bless her heart Won't be spending our $$$ there anymore

Have been driving by for a couple years and finally stopped in tonight. It was a Wednesday evening and it was pretty quiet. Bartender was friendly, food came out fast, tasted great, and was reasonably priced. I want to get in to try their Thursday night $17 ribeye dinner special and on Friday or Saturday to check out the live bands. Will definitely be back.

Rude management. Don’t recommend them at all. They had a band playing and advertising it for people to come out and see the band. My parents went and found a table to sit at that didn’t have a reserved sign and the manager came over and told them they can’t sit there. My dad is a disabled veteran and can’t stand for long periods of time. Extremely rude and they don’t care about people.

Never been to Arnold's but I will be going back again. Great crowd. Terrific band. Bedrock Band. Played tunes from Michael Jackson to Ozzy and Dio.

Had a great time seeing Bedrock perform last Saturday and this past Friday! Always a blast!

A fun place with live music, good bar food and very good service. We went on a Friday night and it was a fun filled evening!

Their new menu is great! The waitresses are always super friendly as well! Love this local gem!

The bands are out of this world. The waitress staff and bartenders are cool.

Great band, good food. Good service!!

There was a band, it was very busy. They needed more help.

It's a nice roadside bar for a drink and a snack.

Go here a few Thursdays a month for Kareoke and Steak Chicken Tender night

One of our favorite local hang out spots. The drinks are reasonable, the bands are good, and the atmosphere is perfect.

The old fashion s and bloody mary's were perfect

Love the fresh, cut and filet right as you watch and a great selection, not all seafood -Kyle's homemade soups, chowder, 3 dips (shrimp is my favorite).....fish fry ingredients, spices. All you need! The atmosphere is Country/Florida East coast. The guys are great and pretty funny and cute!

Went for steak night very disappointed...steak was too fatty and cold. They stopped doing the corn on the cob which was a let down and the service was mediocre.

We were told they were having a rap band. When we got there it was country! (Laughs) Needless to say we were not dressed appropriately! Although, the service was great, band was really good 👍 and the people were Super! I would like to mention the smell! It STINKS!!! Oh, p.s. had we eaten our food when it was hot, it might have been good. Potato Skins.

Local pub hole. First time and everyone very nice. Typical bar fare; wish they had a better draft selection. Glory was playing and they were fabulous.

Great ol honky tonk juke joint. Best place in town for a steak on Thursday nights!

Nice place to stop in for a cocktail and maybe a snack

Very good food great atmosphere. Will definitely go again.

Places looking better they're doing a lot of renovations definitely need to replace that carpet I think that's in the works always friendly service

It had great music(the groove pipe) and really good ambience! Only problem they had shutdown the kitchen for a couple weeks for renovation. The finger foods they did offer were really good.

1st time here. Stopped by after being downtown for a nightcap when we saw live music. Zero Hour was the band playing great rock music and Lauren our server kept the drinks flowing!! Will be stopping by again!!

People are friendly and bartenders know their stuff.

No, it's not fancy but it's the best steak dinner deal you will find in all of St. Augustine! We haven't been to Arnold's in a couple of years and decided to stop in for steak night. They serve a full steak dinner here every Thursday, (a ribeye steak, baked potato, corn. green beans and a roll), for $14.00. The steak is extremely flavorful and it's so tender it can be cut with a butter knife. The sides are delicious also and they also pour a strong drink here. The server informed us that a new owner recently bought the establishment and they're in the process of remodeling. We could see an improvement already. It's not like the days of old when smoking was allowed indoors here...smoking is now outside only. This is definitely a locals lounge/restaurant but it's a fun place to go if you're craving a great steak that won't break the bank. We did see a sign stating they will soon be serving a full menu, (including breakfast and lunch), so it will be interesting to see how things turn out.

Do not got here. It’s horrible, and disgusting.

Great place for a reasonably priced steak dinner and karaoke!

The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly. We had a great time!

Great listening to Blistur there!

Like the fact that this place is no longer smoking allowed but they are not consistent with their pours! I had 4 mixed drinks and they all tasted different, first we got real glasses then after 2 drinks they were switched to smaller plastic cups!! That's soooo tacky!!!!! And when it's a Saturday night you should've had plenty of soap in the bathroom!!!!!

Large space, good bands, extreme food wait.

Perfect lounge! Some dont understand the the word. "Lounge". Im not a smoker anymore and i LOVE that its MY choice to go somewhere else if i felt the need to protect my special lungs. Will alway be back. Thanks!

Nice people and good dance floor with live bands

Went to have steak dinner.under new management steak was to done asked for med rare they cooked me another .done correct .comes with potatoe and green beans and corn for 14.00 plus free karaoke

Friendly place, often with live music.

AWESOME! Love the drinks and the service was on point! Will definitely be back! Might end up being my new hangout!

Love the staff there. Friendly and Johnny on the spot with drinks.pricing isn't to bad. Seem to be going up in price every time I visit. Typical bar food when the kitchen is open.

nice safe good country band and room to dance, sorry there was no food on Sat, but loved the prime rib on Thursday

Great music! Good size for dancing.

Very friendly staff and patrons. We enjoyed an evening listening to Glory, drinking a few good but a bit strong drinks and a nice dinner from Dave's patio. We had the cheeseburger and BBQ pork sandwich with fries, coleslaw, and BBQ baked beans. We preferred the pork sandwich. The beans were smokey and tasty. Coleslaw was good. Fries hot and fresh. Tried a friend's onion ring, and they were delicious. It is a fairly large place with darks and other games near the patio, a big bar, and many tables around a large dance floor and stage. It was a great mix of people aging fr9m what seemed like late 20s to 70s. We would go again. This is not a modern or trendy place, it's a good neighborhood bar feel.

Great place. Brandy was great, and Monday is happy hour ... all day!

The mash potatoes was a hit. Loved the songs from the 80's bingo

Always great service and a good time at Arnold's!

First and last time I'll ever visit this dump. Waited for ever to be served a beer with a rude blonde waitress. Ordered the special ribeye steak special and waited nearly an hour before canceling my steak order and leaving the bar in a hurry. Yikes.

Had a great time with friends debbie bday!! Band was good.

Very friendly atmosphere and a comfortable place to have fun

A great place to escape the relentless sun and tourist. Pull in and checkout. Plus the staff are amazing.
