    If a dive bar had a favorite dive bar, this would be it. The place reeks of character and characters. When I walked in, the bouncer asked to see my ID. When he saw I had traveled from the northeast all the way to Tulsa, he was genuinely happy about it. He called out a guy's name and told him to come up to the front and said "We caught another one of you, so can we throw you back in the water?" Everyone had a great laugh. Great start! This might be normal in these parts, but I was astonished when I got an ashtray when I ordered my beer. This sort of thing hasn't been seen where I live in over 20 years. I felt like I had traveled back in time. I don't smoke, but I loved it. While the decor seems haphazard, that is kinda the point. But if you look close enough, there's thought to how they space things out. The service is friendly, the staff is fun, the music is great, and everyone is there to relax and have something to drink and a few laughs. So refreshing. Bottom's up, gang.

    Check out this patio on a nice day!  It's very enclosed, so it can be pretty chilly outside and still really comfortable.

    Arnie's is such a great bar in the historic Blue Dome district in downtown Tulsa! We've gone for years, but stopped by recently to check out the remodeled back room. WOW! They have done a fantastic job of keeping the relaxed vibe, but also making sure that they enhanced the experience. The patio is also always a great choice when the weather is nice. I love how they've redone the fire place area but kept the cozy atmosphere. You can't beat the service, prices and ambiance of this local gem!

    Arnie's was so cool that I ended up there 3 times in 10 hours! I first went there at around 3pm to have a beverage while wandering around downtown Tulsa. It was the 1st place bar I passed after leaving the hotel. I had a great bartender and met a regular that knows a friend of mine in Green Bay - small world. I came back to Arnie's at about 9pm after dinner. The crowd was larger and younger and I sat next to a guy that was telling the world that he was selling everything he owned and was off to see America. I then left for a while but I never found anything better than Arnie's, so I found my way back for a final call beverage. great intimate and divey atmosphere, awesome bartenders, shuffleboard and patio. It's the real deal and seems to attract a great authentic mix of people. I'll be back, so save me a stool.

    If you want a true Irish Pub that has been around since what seems like the dawn of Tulsa, this is your place. The beer selection is good and it rotates a bit, so there's usually something new to try in addition to the regular favorites. The bar itself, in conjunction with the staff, make this place "that bar". It's an amazing place to unwind, whether you're wanting to unwind on the patio, you'd rather shoot darts, or if shuffleboard is your thing... Arnie's is a good bet. Can't wait to make this my first stop next time I'm in Tulsa.

    Marshall IPA...my new friend.

    Stopped by here for a nightcap my last night in Tulsa. This bar is pretty cool...it's an old style Irish Pub. I love the old school feeling of it. There are a few bars around the area, but on this night (Tue), this bar was the busiest. The front bar is kind of small and was tight to move around. The full length shuffleboard makes it kind of difficult to get around the tables when it's packed. There's several areas....a patio, rear dining room, front bar.....not sure if there was anything else, but those areas were open the night I was there. I parked myself in the front bar at a table and enjoyed a locally brewed Marshall IPA.....very good beer. I was only able to have one beer though as I had to get up early to check out and catch a plane back home. Will I return? Next time I'm in Tulsa, you bet!

    Yeah, I took my mom to Arnie's for Mother's Day.  She doesn't drink.  And she loved it.

    See all

    I enjoyed that this bar wasn't over done and has a patio area. It's very small but has great character. The gin and tonic was well made.
