Reviews of Arena's Milford (Restaurant)

Brandon Hohrein

Arena's did a fantastic job tonight hosting the Kent County Association of Realtors Summer Cookout. Thank you for everything! If this review was helpful, give it a

The food is great as always. The service leaves alot to be desired but overall I like Arenas and will be back. I enjoy the atmosphere and the restaurant is always clean. Definitely would recommend Arenas in Milford and Long Neck to everyone!

Tammy Nation

The service was slow and we had to ask for a waitress multiple times. A couple across from us had the same issue. We were there before dinner and well after the normal lunch time. They were nice and offered a free appetizer. The portions are very large and the food was good. The overall cleanliness was not up to par. The floor was dirty and the ledge along the window was dirty and even had dead flies on it.

Went today with my sister for lunch. Sign said seat yourself... took almost 15 minutes to be given menus and drink order taken. Took another ten minutes to receive our waters while a group that came in after us received their drinks before us and it was the same waitress. I ordered a burger and was not asked how I’d like it cooked... came out well... very well lol Both of us drank our waters and never once were asked how our meal was or if we would like more water. I had Mac and cheese bites... don’t waste your money - it’s boxed kraft Mac and cheese that’s over fried and very dry. My sister had a crab melt which she did enjoy but our overall service was very poor. We were repeatedly asked by three different girls when we first arrived if they could take our order so clearly there’s no organization here. When we paid the waitress said thanks for being patient cause they’re busy... unless they had catering events happening, the restaurant was not busy.

Carol Johnson-Krumm

It's okay. Not as high end or family oriented as I imagined. Not much different than park place. A pub kind of hangout. Not my scene.

Danielle Malone

Food was good. Service was ok. Food took a long time.

Gregory Megatron

It was good, all the TVs had all thr NFL games on. Service was on point. Food was great.

Jamie Mack

Arena's is another one of Delawares great local chains. Fabulous sandwiches, great beer selection and wonderful atmosphere. For sports fans the memorabilia on the walls is so.ething to see, and the food and drink are more than enough to satisfy everyone's else. And whatever else you order, make sure you try the death fries! They are to die for!

Shelley Kimmey

Good place to take the kids. Friendly staff

Eleanor Muskovich

Best sandwiches in milford

Bud Shirlow

Decent food good service

sean chaffman

Visited while on vacation. Friendly service, food was tasty, and the beers were reasonably priced. We visited for lunch and it wasn't too crowded. I would recommend trying this establishment.

Tim Edwards

Good food and great service. Half priced sandwiches on Wednesday's and local beers on tap. Highly reccomend death fries and hot tots.

Tracy Scott

Give it 5 stars for the food and service but a little pricey for what you get

Sandra Rabidou

Food was delicious. Great place for lunch Good service

Diane Newton

Valerie Camarillo

Food was very good.

Vincent Gaspara

Never have had a bad experience here. Service is always top notch, and the food will keep bringing you back as well!

sue hershey

Very good Reuben sandwiches

Tom Rust

Great food, you won't leave hungry

Marc Wilds

The food is less than mediocre, like something you'd find in a school cafeteria. The selection also isn't great, mostly just sandwiches. The lighting was so dark it didn't seem like a sports bar, overall just a very "blah" place to eat.

Gary Gross

Very busy lunch, there was an event going on this weekend. The wait was understandably long but food was awesome. Friendly service too.

johnathan spears

I would have given it 5 stars for the food. However the front end staff have a blatant disregard to proper food safe handling procedures. The 30 minutes I was there I saw them eating in the front of the house, touching there hair, handling dirty dishes and money. And not once did I ever see either of those girls wash their hands. Before handing take out boxes, serving customer food or getting customer drinks. I'm sorry but because of what I seen I would never patronize this establishment ever again. And this was my first time ever walking into this deli and bar. Should be called Bar and possible salmonella take your chances. I won't post pictures because I don't have there permission to post publicly. However if the owner ever watch his or her recording. They would know this. Unless they just don't care about it. Signed Hopefully don't get sick

Trey Kraus

Basic sandwich+ place. Go with friends to make it enjoyable

Skeptic K5

Don’t get the wings from this place!! I got mild wings and when they gave them to me there was no sauce so I got them to put it on for me and it wasn’t the same. They were uncooked along with the fries. Although there was very nice service I would not get their wings.

Mitch Denham

I have been to this location a couple times and it gets slightly worse each time. Tonight was the final straw. The table at which my wofe and I were seated was dirty and the seat was covered in crumbs. The first server did not seem old enough to serve anything. This was made even more clear when the second server came over and asked for our drink order. I ordered a Coors Light draft and a Blue Moon draft. The server returned with a bottled CL and the BM draft. When I stated that I ordered a CL draft she explained that they did not have CL draft. I asked what they had on tap she had no idea and pointed at the tap. I could not take anymore and stood up to leave. I will not be back to that location. I will continue to patronize the Lewes and Rehoboth locations. Sorely disappointed.

deborah labar

Food was delicious and great atmosphere.

Joe Coughlin

Staff, facility clientel, food super.

hadden annand

I hate to be that one guy.... But I wasn't impressed at all, the staff was rude, and I was told to seat my self even though every available table was dirty. We sat at a table and it was cleaned while we were looking over the menu, but we ordered our drinks and asked for another minute to look over the menu, we waited 15 minutes.... I had to call our waitress over there while she was checking on a nearby table, and she asked if we were ready to order, I told her I'm ready for my check, and she replied "You're good" and walked away? So we left $5 for the drinks and took our business over to Park Place.

F & P Major/LeggyLady

You won't leave hungry, portions are plentiful

Nate Miller

Food was not very tasty. Bloody Mary tasted like water with old Bay and a splash of tomato juice, no Alcohol at all. Wait staff appeared to be bother by having people on the deck.

Christina Trovato

Great place. Lots of beer choices. The food was also good. Had lots of TVs to watch football. Bartender on Thursday was amazing never waited for a drink.

Paul Lankford

Great sandwich shop with many varieties. Fast, casual service was great.

John Yaeger

Great place. Good food, dare I say :too much?

James Rolling

Great food, nice people, but we were a private party in the back and once they got us set up and served --- they sort of forgot about us. BUT --- I would go there again as a regular customer being served out front...

Corey Newport

The place was very dirty I wonder what the kitchen looked like I think it needs chef Ramsey

Rachel Oliver

Good vibe in the restaurant , food could've come out a little faster but definitely worth the wait

deanna potter

We ate here when the race in Dover was rained out. Our server was awesome and accommodating. Food was delishious and so were our drinks..will visit again on our next trip!

Jeffery Malatsts

Are waitress Kayland was great

Pam Heritage

Fabulous food amd service

Grover Nash

Good food and good service

Arthur Campbell

Great food & prices.

Jazzmire Chairez

This place is awesome. I went in one day with a few friends and I ordered a soup. I didn't like my soup (I had less than 1/3rd of it) and they discounted part of the cost off my bill!

Brittany Baker

Always good food, very filling, quick and easy dining

Carol Breeding

Great food and prices during happy hour are really good. The back deck is right along the river so it is really pleasant to sit outside and enjoy a relaxing evening with dinner and drinks.

J

A friends daughter was given a bridal shower in their private party room. Service was very poor, I had to walk to the bar to get my own drink TWICE! I was never even offered a water. The room was hot and musty smelling, thermostat said 78 degrees when an attendee adjusted thermostat, she was the mvp!

Benjamen Jones

Arena's is always a good, easy place for us to eat. There are always some specials to take advantage of. Our favorite after a late night at the shop is half price sandwich night on Wednesdays.

Christina Moore

So good love coming here! Great beer selection I got a local Dewey sour beer. It was Friday when we went and they had 1/2 pound shrimp for 3.00 and 3.00 Miller lite pints. I got the arenas signature burger, and my boyfriend got the French dip both were delicious! One of my favorite places to go.

Gregory Heishman

Great atmosphere. Bartender was quick and had an amazing attitude.

Joshua Clifton

Excellent food!!! Tried wings and Jalapeno Burger, both were among the best.

Art Roxby

Great sandwiches. Half price night! Excellent service.

Debra McCann

Went for a Networking event, food was delicious.

Amanda Altemus

Love the food. The staff is wonderful and very friendly. The death tots are absolutely wonderful!!

Shannon Bradford

Great food, great time. Loved eating there when I was in Rehoboth, so I'm glad they opened in Milford. Beautiful outdoor patio area on the river. Always busy, but doesn't take long to get a seat. Daily good and drink specials. Trivia night. Tons of flat screens to watch whatever sport you would like to see. Nice place to grab a quick bite to eat or linger for a few hours watching the game or band perform.

Jimbob Tucker

Good food, a little pricey

Cole Hallman

Good food and good people.

Robert Newton

It was a nice restaurant/bar. Waitresses were good looking, burger was good and so were their Mac and cheese bites. Only issues I had were 1. They seemed to pass by the guy with water (me). They asked everyone if they wanted a refill except me, but I spoke up and got myself one. 2. The Mac and cheese bites didn't have that many. I guess it would've been okay, except I split them with 3 other dudes. They were $7.99, so it came out to basically $1/each. 3. They were very crowded. That's to be expected though at a bar on a Friday night... But it's small, so there weren't that many places to sit. So... Yeah.

Donald Summers

Had a GREAT time there the staff was phenomenal. Waitress never let my beer go empty . Good was delicious. Will definitely come back again.

Nathan Sapp

Awesome place to go with the guys for Thursday night football or with the family for a friendly atmosphere and great food. My only complaint is how jacked up the parking lot layout is... Not going to take a star away for that though.

Carri Herring

Friendly atmosphere and great service!

Benjamin Somers

This has become one of my favorite places to go. The staff is very personable and the food is great. Met the manager and he was a very down to earth guy. Definitely recommend stopping in and trying some craft beer here.

Ron Vest

Great food and service

Maurice Warren

Took 10 minutes after being seated before the hostess realized we hadn't been seen by a server yet. She took both our drink and food order, gave me a refill on my drink, all before we even saw our server a half hour after being seated. And again the hostess brought us our food, and checked us periodically more than our server managed too. All the server could manage to say to us when he would come to our table was "are you guys good?" The hostess was great to us however our experience with our server was absolutely terrible.

Cyan Cian

Truly a great place to eat, no matter what you'd like they almost certainly have an option for it on the menu. The new parking lot is a great addition, so now there are actually parking spaces instead of a demolition derby outside.

Frank Milford

Good place for lunch, better be hungry. A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for and more.

Christopher Hodge

Cobb salad 5 star

Michael Cain

Good food and good friendly service.

Constance Price

Consistently great food, drinks and service. California Club Dude and the Yummy Hummy are my favorites and they have great nachos

J Senesi

Food was ok.

Natalie Jewell

Service is great! Food is consistently good.

Allison Neidig

Amazing beer selection. The food is also awesome. Not your typical bar food. Cobb salad was to die for.

Paul Boulter

Crab cakes good, hot tator tots were good, but but the chilly sucked

James Walker

nice local place w good pub grub

joe thomas

I had a burger on this trip . It was very good for 12 bucks and it doesn't come with fries . It tasted like it was freezer burnt . The crab drip was good and so were the death fries . The wings were good and Monday they have a special on them .

Lee Fugitt

Love their sandwiches and the tater tots are the best around.

Melissa Williams

Nice outdoor seating on the riverwalk. Lots of draft beers on the menu and a great place to go for appetizers and beer. I think the selection of food and quality is average.

NumbNux 21

This is my favorite Arenas location.

Michael Lawson

Staff is friendly and its super chill but the food is mediocre and overpriced....The burgers aren't that great .The only good thing I can say that its a clean place.Not recommend it to anyone to waste your money.

Timothy Lynch

Great beer selection and solid food!

Casey Wheeler

Great food and service, and very reasonable prices.

Amazing food menu

Will Liston

Great visit, good cheap food, great beer selection.

Billy Griffin Bowman

Over priced subpar food snoty waitress

Nancy Biskey

Excellent Nacho with 3 dips and cheese for Appetizer. 1/4 lb Jumbo chili cheese dog and a great hamburger with Lettuce + tomatoes * great food and enough for another meal.

dakisha robinson

I loved Arena's at the beach and so I was thrilled to have one closer to me in Milford. I walked into the establishment without being greeted. I sat at the bar and it took several minutes for anyone to come over and see what I wanted. The food was fine. But I am huge on customer service and acknowledgement. I have not gone back.

Greg Schmidt

If you order a "death fries" to go, or any order with cheese, tell them not to put your order to go on foil. You'll lose 2/3rds of the cheese to the foil Edited: 12/2/2018 It took forever to get my to-go order! Usually it's like 15 minutes, but for some reason tonight was 45-50. Even after I was assured they were boxing the order I still waited. The only positive was they comped the whole order. But that wasn't the end. When I got home I realized they screwed up the order. I asked for a signature burger with jalapenos. I got a jalapeno burger. No pickle. The fish and chips were luke warm. I was very disappointed It's a sports bar with a number of TVs playing regional and national sports. Unless there's an event, the noise levels allow for comfortable conversation. Its largely sandwiches, chips, and drinks, but they also have salads. I love the reubens, both regular and fish (yeah, fish. It's really good!), cheese steak burgers.... all really good. I can't say I've been disappointed with anything I ate here, and we do so often. We live just across the river. The beer selection is large with a fair number on tap. Edit - 8/2/2019 Ordered 2 fish and chips to go. The fish was overcooked, and the fries were greasy. The tartar sauce was not good and the slaw was unpalatable. I would have sent the order back, but I was at home. Arenas is slipping fast!

Kris Greene

It's not bad. Only been there once. The food wasn't bad and the prices were reasonable.

Bill Hines

Great jalapeño cheeseburger but the chicken salad was chunky and tough, same with the tuna salad. Nice ambiance by the river and very attentive and friendly staff.

Lizzie Beth

Great service great food

Joyce Nolen

Sat at the bar. Had cocktail and sandwich. Very satisfied with service, good quality and atmosphere. I'll be back.

Chris Shantz

Love the community/local bar feel. All the staff treat us well, know our drinks...

Marea Kelly

Been there to have lunch with my family quite a few times and have never been disappointed. Great food, excellent staff and fun environment. Plus, the prices are great! 5 stars every time...

Tim Allen

Love this place we came here ut of town to work. We came across this little place and they treated us like family. Amazing place. Thanks to all.

Gayle Sussman

I love this place for the burgers. Best in Milford!! Cudo's the the cook. Great menu choices as well. Another close to home place to go. Casual & comfortable.

Paula Gillespie

Over price pub food

S M

Great food

Kayla Ksenich

Great atmosphere. Indoor/outdoor seating. On the missipillion river. Friendly wait staff. Great food great service! Definitely recommended!

Doris Sweeney

Very dark and dreary, food ok, atmosphere, not for family, more for bar people. Not great seating for large crowds, we were 10 an had to sit at round tables. Very awkward.

Jay Gartlan

Good casual food and craft beer selection. A good place to go in Milford.

Michael Davidson

Always a great place to grab a meal an a beer and enjoy the atmosphere.

Adam Horner

Pretty cheap on it specials nice view awesome food

Just some guy

Arenas Milford is a great place to hang out and have a beer or sit down and eat for lunch or dinner. The staff are always friendly and do a great job of taking care of their customers. I would highly recommend a stop here for good service , cold beer , hot delicious food in a comfortable layed back atmosphere

Lisa Mick

The food was fresh and taste good

Hilary Lombardi

Great atmosphere even outside

Caitlin Dutrow

Go-to spot when in Milford for a quick, affordable, delicious bite and great beer selection.

Bill Thomas

The Burger and Ruben were good. Would have liked them to come with fries.

Lori Cahall

Good food, alittle pricey. Nice outdoor seating.

Kevin Charles

Great sandwich/burger menu. But I had a spinach salad that was really good. Nice riverwalk seating in back. Great bar where "everyone knows your name". Plenty of parking. This is a cozy local sandwich pup well worth the visit.

Mike Moyer

Good food but pricey

James Stevens

Decent Philly cheese steak and love the tots. Quick, competent service.

Susan Schake

Service was horrible. Waited over an hour for our lunch. Had a group of 25+ people with the back room reservation. Only had one waiter for all of us. I don't blame our waiter, he was actually good and tried very hard. I blame management. They knew a large group was coming, they should have had more help.

Adam Zee

Great service, and trivia on Thursdays is a blast!

Ashley Becker

We love arenas and we love the staff. Always a pleasure going in. Death fries the best thing in Sussex county

Gretchen Pikus

Love 1/2 price sandwich night!

Virginia Mitchell

Excellent service and great food

malik sukkamadeek

Good food, small portions though for some items like the torpedo roll sandwiches, if you are hungry avoid the torpedo roll

Jared Becker

Love this place, they always have great food and service

Charles Vattimo

This place is awesome! Almost endless selection of local and specialty brews on tap. Extended selection of bottles and cans. The food is always excellent. Food service is always quick. An actual endless selection of sandwiches. If you don’t like what they have in the menu you can “make your own.” Daily specials every day, week to week. My favorite is 1/2 price sandwiches on Wednesday. They don’t change portion size for the discount.

Donald Granger

Great food great place great staff

David Friedland

Consistent quality food and friendly service.

Frank Dillon

Fast service good sandwiches.

Paula Workman

Great folk music,

Clint Bell

Top notch staff and menu!! They always have an incredible selection of beers with on tap and bottle or can. Most importantly, Milford Arena's stay stocked up on delicious Mispillion River Brewing selections (highly recommend). There spirits selection isn't to shabby either. Although it would be nice to see a Nice Selection of Rye whiskey to choose from again. For exceptional service ask for Kerri, Jenna, and/or Grace. And make sure you take advantage of there rewards program

Richard Abraham

I never leave a bad review on a restaurant but I'm leaving one now.. 1st off the hostess seated us and after 20 minutes my girlfriend had to go ask the hostess to let our waitress know we needed waited on. 2nd my girlfriend order a chicken sandwich and the chicken was extremely slimy with a rotten chicken odor. My 5yo daughter order a PB&J sandwich and they had so much jelly on it she couldn't even pick it up and eat it with her hands and when a say to much jelly I do mean a lot. Every meal we ordered was horrible. Now when our waitress did arrive and wait on us she was great. Only thing that was good was the rum punch my girlfriend and I ordered that came from the bar. It was our 1st visit there and I can assure you it will be my last. Milford Arena's you've gotten your 1st and last visit from me.. I would suggest if going there for a few drinks and to hang out it wouldn't be bad but if you get hungry sneak in something from Wendy's because if you ordered food there you'll be really disappointed...

Don Johnson

Arenas is always a good time the staff is friendly and on top of your every need. My only wish is they do something with the front door it gets a bit chilly inside with people coming and going. This will not affect me going back the friendly faces and good times more than make up for it. Cheers!
