We went to the blue arrow farm last night because they band that we had heard about called jungle habitat was playing and they are a fan that specializes in 70s songs and I have to tell you they were amazing. Not only did they put on a great music tribute to the 70s but they changed outfits throughout the whole presentation and performance and we're just amazing. Blue arrow farm is just an incredible place to visit year-round and they have a great bar and the food is very good. Highly recommend blue arrow farm and Pyle Island, New York. read more

Blue Arrow is such a beautiful landscape and farm. The event areas are great. The cause Blue Arrow supports is incredible. However, don't book an event there unless you are willing to drop a lot of money. As this story goes, I have come to find out I am known as the "bare minimum" booking. Mike, the owner, also made it clear that I can review on Yelp! but he is not concerned as nobody really is concerned with Yelp! as that's where people go to leave negative reviews. His Google reviews are better. If you book an event, speak to anyone but Ariel. Ariel made promises that she didn't keep and verbally explained the contract in a way that cost me money. All of which was explained to Mike, who basically said he was "surprised" as he never has had a conversation like this. On top of making sure to tell me how he lost money on my event booking, he didn't offer anything more than a discounted event should I want to come back and that he'll speak to Ariel. Which by the way, she even quoted some misinformation in an email chain withMile and I. Essentially, Ariel was all about my booking until it was disclosed that I wasn't looking for anything more than a space with light refreshments and snacks. Ariel did the reservation for me but pushed doing double appetizers as I might not have enough for 30 people. I went home with 4 trays of food and everyone had eaten a lot. Hmmm. So I lost money there. I also was told that someone would be on hand to make sure my guests were welcomed and ensure they were in the right place. I was doing a surprise party for my wife, I was the chauffeur. I was told it was no problem to have someone on hand to do that until I got there. Surprise! There wasn't. Mike told me I didn't pay enough to justify a $25 an hour staff member to help. Wait? I never asked for someone for the three hours and understood people would self serve. I was PROMISED someone for a few minutes during the initial kick off. I was also told how to set up music wrong and when I texted Ariel I was told to find the Chef at the location and ask them. Cool. Ariel also made it clear that the hour set up and break down, didn't apply to me as I wasn't decorating so I was limited to 3 hours. Mike told me the opposite. So I lost extra time. Mike basically told me since I didn't do a walk through this is why all these issue occurred. I don't believe a walk through would have help with an improperly explained contract that I abided by, a promise that Ariel or someone would be there between 1215-1230 to help with my guests because Ariel said they really couldn't come before 1230 and the fact that I tried to do one round of appetizers but was told I really should do 2, especially since I was not doing an actual dinner and I should trust her. There was also a stink bug issue the day of that Mike told me was an issue all over. However, I was at a few events the past few weekends that didn't seem to have this issue. I also checked with individuals in events in Orange County and they denied this issue . But as Mike said, it's an old barn what would I expect. Essentially, Mike was very friendly and cordial but offered me - you signed this contract and Ariel told me you didn't want any help so they did the "bare minimum" for me as I was there "bare minimum" reservation. Ironically, my initial conversation with Ariel was very transparent and if Blue Arrow wanted to make money over creating a memory they should have declined my request. read more

I had been to two events here within two months. Although the venues can accommodate a large group, the food was embarrassingly bad. Both events had the same food. It was basically frozen food probably bought at BJ's or Costco. The one appetizer is scallops wrapped in basically raw bacon. So unappetizing to look at and awful to eat. Desserts were the same prepackaged previously frozen cream puffs - other pastries, still frozen in the middle. Nothing else is worth mentioning. I was at a baby shower and a surprise bday party there. Both had awful food made w zero effort. The people who threw the parties there were embarrassed. I was embarrassed for them. A waste of money. I never write reviews like this but I was pretty shocked at the lack of professional effort . The smaller venue which had a stage and bar also had unprofessional servers who were not attentive and stayed away from customers as much as possible. Don't book your event there unless you provide your own food. read more

We went here for a marti gras party and it was interestingm it was very fun and the live music was great but there was a very makeshift parade but overall a fun time. The odd looking food truck had very good pizza. The bouncer was weird. read more

Just left after being yelled at by a larger, old man that said "we better not block that handicapped ramp" while with my nephew that has cerebral palsy.. and a handicapped placard - instead of trying to help he just kept yelling that you can't park there and I work here. For someone employed by Blue Arrow you're not very helpful and quite rude. Also, I saw 3 NON handicapped cars in handicapped spots. After reading the reviews I see this place has gone really down hill since they opened and I came to visit a few years ago. Seems like they have an issue with customer service, too. Get nicer staff and a better parking situation if you are trying to host crowds. read more

I just rented out the upper barn for my 50th birthday party and it was fantastic! The price for the rental was reasonable, as well as the bar package and food. My guests loved the food that was provided by Blue Arrow, especially the Veal Marsala and Chicken Piccata. The staff were very nice and friendly and Mike made putting the details of my event together very easy. The owner Don Oriolo also came out on stage and jammed with my band that I brought in. I highly recommend this rustic venue (and the best live music venue option in the area) as all proceeds go to the animal rescue farm. read more

Never have a bad time here. Never. Freddy, Shannon great bartenders. Caitlin terrific food every Wednesday night.

Original Travel Safe Xmass Song Oh Well I gotta get home to my babys arms She's s worried half to death.I hope this storm it dosen't last to long if it's true what the weather man said.The roads are icy and the sky is dark as you know I'm missing you so but I'll be home before the break of dawn cause it's you that I need to hold. But there is ice on my tailpipes and Jack Frost is nipping my nose.Ice on my tailpipes I never thought it get that cold.I gotta get home to my babys arms cause it's her that I need to hold but theres ice on my tailpipes I BETTER TAKE IT NICE AND SLOW. As I headed out the snow was billowing down I could barely see.It didn't take long til the four wheel drive kicked in then set me free.The wind was blowing and the ice was caking up on my windshield. The going was slow cause I know that steady will take me to my next meal But there's still ice on my tailpipes and Jack Frost is nipping my nose.Now I'm on the turnpike just paying the tolls as I go.I've gotta get home to my baby's arms cause it's her that I need to hold but there's ice on my tailpipes I'd better take it nice and slow The bridge was out tree limbs had pulled down those powerlines.If I don't get home you know I'd rather be stoned and I'll tell you that's no lie.So I closed my eyes then said a prayer hoping Santa would hear my plea then to my surprise a pack of reindeer pulled up an lifted me!!! Now there's ice on them reindeer but Santa's keeping me warm We rose above the rooftops St.Nick said it wouldn't take long.I finally arrived at my babys arms to celebrate Christmas Day when there was Ice on my tailpipes then had a happyyyyy holidaaaaay!!! Inspired in 2015 when an Icesickle actually formed on my tailpipe.

First time visiting Blue Arrow. I've passed by here lots of times on my way elsewhere and always wondered what kind of events they held here. We stopped in to check out the band that was playing tonight, JDA Project a Hudson Valley music group. They played music from some of my favorite bands such as The Stones, Beatles, Steely Dan, Alan Parsons and The Who to name a few. The venue was held at their main building that looks like a large frontier building on the outside and more of a huge barn on the inside. They have a simple menu, burgers and chicken fingers. Their selection of alcoholic beverages is also pretty simple, canned beers and hard seltzer's along with canned cocktails. Nothing fancy so don't ask for a Long Island Iced Tea or a screwdriver. Whatever you see displayed on the shelf by the bar's what they got. Overall we had a good time. The band was good, the food was eeehh and my wife's drink was sweet with a hint of coconut and passion fruit with rum. She was happy as was I sipping away on the cold Blue Moon. Will keep an eye on their upcoming events. They hold animal rescue events here also. read more

Went to the murder mystery dinner. When I purchased the tickets it said doors opened at 5:45 they didn't open until six sat and waited. Food came out at 7:30 waited online for a half hour for buffet. Had dinner at eight. Show didn't start until 8:40. very unorganized staff. Show was ridiculous. read more

I went one Wednesday evening to here a band. It could be a better experience if the bartenders weren't so angry. The worst service by far. I think it has potential if they made some staff changes . Don't know what the ladies behind the bar are going through but leave your personal life at home. read more

went there today to hear the eagles tribute band ...first they wanted $5 for parking then $40 per person and $10 for a baby. people there were also not friendly. We turned around and left ...You folks need to get your act together ..... read your reviews..... read more

A bunch of us went to a hot rod cruise night there last Wednesday for the first time. Place is really cool, had lots of great cars and was worth the $5.00. The live music was great and had my wife and I dancing all night. They had a food truck, pizza and hot dogs for grabbing a bite to eat. They have a big outdoor bar that's a little pricey but it's got a decent amount of options. The staff there were all very friendly and the guy bartender was very funny. My only issue was the older lady that made our drinks had all her hair hanging over our cups which kind of grossed us out and gave me the wrong change twice. Both times in my favor. I'm not complaining. All in all lots fun! We'll be back! read more

Incredible farm with a beautiful purpose. It's so peaceful. There is plenty to look at. Everything is very well done and creative. I'm not sure about the food situation. The owner is extremely nice and you can see how much he cares for the rescued animals there. For people complaining about a train ride not being free or a very small entrance fee - this is not a community park. This is a private farm that the owner has very generously allowed the public use of and they are collecting donations to care for the rescued animals there in return for use of their farm. A very fair trade. If you want a free event you should visit a park and not this amazing place. I am happy to donate to this good cause. read more

Found out about the car show tonight and decided to check it out. Interesting collection of vehicles, several food spots, staff helpful and following Covid-19 guidelines. That being said numerous people in the pavilion were too close even if eating or drinking. More disturbing were numerous people looking at cars or with groups that brought them that had no masks and assembled way too closely. I didn't see or hear any staff address the situation read more

I think they might need to work on their customer service. . . I called to ask a question and the phone is answered with a rude-toned "hello." As they had not said Blue Arrow Farm or anything, I asked if it was Blue Arrow Farm to ensure I had called a business and not someone's cell phone. The next rude-toned response was, "yes I'm really busy, what do you need?". That was enough for me to know I would not enjoy going to this establishment. read more

Car show nights started off awesome--but it was totally ruined by the food situation. The hamburger truck was totally ridiculous with their wait times. We spent the entire night waiting g for two cheeseburgers and fries-couldn't walk around and look at the cars, animals or anything. Also they charge 16-16 $ per burger. Next time we'll eat somewhere before coming. read more

Great place on Friday nights for Blues Music. I think they are just getting up to speed post covid so Bar is cans only and theres no food (truck outside) but the music is good, people are friendly and the vibe is great. Definitely going again and will increase stars with better bar and at least light bar food. read more

Four of us went on 9/26/2020. We arrived shortly before 6PM because they had live music. The bar was closed. They had food trucks but the hot dog truck and the Italian ice truck left shortly after we got there. The remaining truck had a limited items left on the menu. They were out of chili and pizza. The band was decent. The most disturbing thing about the evening was that they only had porta potties. How sanitary is that during a covid pandemic?? We will not be returning. read more

Went here on a Saturday afternoon in October expecting to find food trucks & some drinks. There were no open food trucks & the bar was closed. This was after we were asked to pay a $5 donation, so we just walked around the place for a hour. I audibly heard others expressing their frustration, as this place is pretty unorganized and things are placed around with really no rhyme or reason. The staff that was around weren't exactly friendly. There are beautiful areas of the farm but again nothing was available to the public (and again this was a Saturday afternoon in October). They had a pumpkin patch to pick your own, but no one to collect money for them... Even though the bar was closed I was able to see that all they were serving was cans of pretty basic beer, we were under the impression that this place had their own brewery... I never saw it. With so many amazing wineries and breweries in the local area, you might as well go somewhere else. This place was very disappointing. We will not be returning. read more

No beer on tap, only canned brands that I can buy at any grocery store. Hotdog truck and a bunch of weird garbage-y decor scattered around the property. Weird and trashy. read more

I wanna different venues not too far from home good drinks good people work there always a good time

We stopped in sat night and it was a great experience and the sangria bucket was only 10 bucks and it was delicious !!!! We had a great time listening to the band as well!!! Highly recommend to anyone !!!! Good time !!!! read more

My retirement party was held at Blue Arrow Farm. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The upper barn was amazing, the staff were professional and friendly and were willing to help at every turn. I highly recommend that you check this place out. It's a gem!!! read more

Would give them a 0 if possible. Being a local, we wanted nothing more than this place to succeed. Time after time, they continue to disappoint. The staff is so unfriendly and unhelpful. It's very poorly run. The final straw for us was the "haunted hayride" where we paid $10 per person (plus paid $5 per adult for "the animals") for a train ride that is free every other weekend. Total scam. I don't see them making it open another year. read more

Honestly had a great time at the Oktoberfest! Went with my sister and our boyfriends and younger sister; we walked around and enjoyed the drinks and animals. However, entering the farm we were "asked" for a "donation of 5$ per person." We miscounted when giving him the money- only gave him $20 instead of $25. While we were leaving he came up to us and told us very rudely and unprofessionally that we didn't give him enough money in the beginning. We tried to give the other $5 because we didn't mean to miscount, but he refused us very rudely. That is not a way to handle any customer or deal with that type of situation. I work in a restaurant and if I miscount the money, that's my fault, so he should have counted before sending us on our way. Very upsetting because I would love to have given this place 5 stars- it's really quite beautiful! read more

We went here for Breakfast with Santa. The place was beautiful and well decorated. The staff were friendly. Santa was great! The food was well above our expectations. We were able to see some animals outside. We will definitely be returning for this event next year! read more

Total Rip off!! I went here with my family to see the Christmas lights. They charged us nearly 50$ for two adults and two kids to see about 70 feet of lights. I've been here before and they charge almost 20$ for a burger. Absolutely absurd, will never come here again! read more

I attended the Brians BBQ night last Sat. 01/25/2020. It was a $90.00 a person wild game and Wine pairing. Although the venue which is a barn was clean, well lit and comfortably heated the food was not good. Started with a duck salad which was delicious and went down from there. The capon was cold and tough, you were served 2 small pieces on polenta with a balsamic reduction. Next came a hunk of what was to be crispy pork belly which was actually just a hunk of undercooked fat belly which was cold. Next was Venison back strap. Again cold and flavorless. The wine with each course was just mediocre. Some chocolate ganache was supposed to be decadent coffe espresso ice cream was Butter Pecan. I gave 2 stares for the venue only. I won't make that mistake again. read more

My husband and I first went to the car show on a Wednesday night here. We were very surprised at the amount of people. We loved every bit of this place. From the cars, the band, the animals, the "crazy train" ride that takes you on a tour of the property as well as through the Magical Forest(gret for kids). Now onto the food, I can honestly say that at first I was a bit taken back at the $14 price for a burger and fries, until I received my container of food. OMG! the burger was HUGE! Its actually enough to share. Yes, there was a bit of a wait, however the food is well worth it. The staff is all very pleasant and more than willing to tell you anything you want to know. Don, the owner is always there mingling with the crowd and always friendly. Always a great time. Don't forget to safe room for ice cream also. There is a small fee of $5 to get in but remember this is a rescue sanctuary so the proceds go to the rescued animals. We have since been back every Wednesday and bring new friends or family each time. read more
