Most of our food was cold and it took 40 min to get our food. I was a little sad as I have been here quite a bit and have always had a great experience. I’ll still be back though!

Had a large group and Arch City accommodated us wonderfully. The food was good and unique for pub fare. The highlight, though was the service. From the hostess to the bartender to our waitress, all were personable, friendly, and very good at their jobs. They made a nice lunch into a memorable time.

this was our 2nd visit to Arch City Tavern -- we love their burgers - any and all! The butter & blue salad with salmon is my favorite! We tried the lobster mac & cheese - very good dish - not a lot of lobster, if any?, but the mac & cheese is creamy and delicious - it was not very hot when it came to the table but we enjoyed it anyway lol

The owner came in with a huge party during the dinner rush and commandeered the kitchen. This resulted in having to wait 50 minutes to get our food. The check was discounted but not comped. Very poor business practice.

I haven't been to Arch City since mid 2022 so I can't speak to the rest of the menu. But the brunch we had there March 2023 was cold, and inedible (Pork pork skillet). Ironic as a "skillet" usually indicates hot (this was not that). The Huevos Rancheros tasted like a can of diced tomatoes with an overcooked fried egg, and some cheese quesadillas I could have made it home. The service was slow, and our waitress, while kind to check in consistently, had no interest of asking what we thought of the food (she knew better). I would NOT recommend brunch here. The burgers and fries still looked quite good (based on what I saw on 3/36, and what I've tasted in the past). While I've recommended this restaurant in the past, I was extremely disappointed this visit.

This place was awesome. We went for Valentine's Day happy hour and our server was super cool. I got the caprese chicken dish with the Brussels sprouts and my boyfriend got the pepperoni pizza. The only bad thing I have to say is that it was pretty dark inside to the point that the windows were blinding. Otherwise the drinks, food, and service were great. We will definitely be back!

We’ve been longtime lovers of Arch City! Servers are friendly, atmosphere is comfortable & casual. Food quality is always excellent. Service itself has been especially slow the last few times we’ve visited though. Slow to get drinks, very slow to receive food! This seems to be true no matter if the restaurant is packed or if it’s only a few tables filled. Still worth a visit for us though!
