Friendly staff and nice family atmosphere. Roast dinner was nice, could do with some green veg options. Pudding - fudge cake lovely. Merengue lemon texture was not nice. But fair pricing and overall good experience.
I have been a frequent visitor to the Arrow for many years (being my local) and the news of a refurbishment was certainly welcomed! Marstons have definitely delivered, it looks great. However, the Arrow was previously a very dog friendly establishment. Unfortunately that is no longer the case. Dogs are still allowed, but only on hard floors that are restricted to high rise tables only and all directly in front of the big screens, which is far from ideal for me personally. It's certainly a great pub with a brilliant atmosphere, but less pet friendly than the previous establishment.
Ok, I wasn't expecting fine dining, but even for ready-meal pub grub this was pretty poor. The hard brown balls with mush were meant to be scampi, and the layer of green cardboard-like stuff was 'mushy' peas! Count the chips yourself. The Arrow is actually an ok pub - just eat before you go!
So I was down in Yeovil to watch my Beloved Oldham Athletic Vs Yeovil Town so I headed to Huish park and after having a nosey around the stadium 🏟 and the Yeovil Town club shop. I had done my research by Googling Yeovil Town Away guide and lots of sites said that the Arrow is a local pub/Restaurant that welcomes Home and Away fans so a steward said to Use Google Maps to get there by cutting through a lovely little estate as opposed to walking all round the World. 10 minutes later I had arrived at the Arrow Pub to see an Army of our fans in our home, Away and Third shirts including some retro Oldham shirts. Huge bar and restaurant are, Pub was absolutely crammed full of locals, Home and away fans, families etc. The Man City Vs Crystal Palace match was being on shown on every tv in the restaurant and bar area, Cracking atmosphere, Huge variety of drinks on offer from pop to non alcoholic to beers, Craft beers, Guinness, Spirits and obviously being in Somerset loads and loads of different Ciders. As busy as it was bar staff did a great job, Super polite and friendly and extremely proficient, I opted for a Pint Of Brooklyn Lager that was crisp, ice cold well served and went down a treat on a lovely summers ☀️ day in Somerset. I felt abit peckish so I went into the restaurant but and ordered a chicken 🐔 feast which was chicken wings, Popcorn chicken, Southern Fried chicken steak, Chips and a rack of ribs, Food came out in good time considering how busy the pub was. Food came was well presented, Nice and hot and tasted absolutely delicious 😋 honest cooked to perfection, generous portion and the restaurant was spotlessly clean again considering how busy the pub was. Really enjoyed my food and opted for another Pint of Brooklyn Lager and it again was ice cold, crisp and went down well in the Yeovil sun 🌞. I finished my pint and walked the short walk back to Huish park ready for the match.

Booked a table for 7 people for 12.45. Eventually placed our order from lunchtime menu adding 4 x £2.50 desserts only to be charged full price for them because it's Boxing day...fair enough but didn't tell us. Meals arrived 1.5 hours later and 2 were cold. 1 was refunded because 'that's the best we can do'. 4 desserts again took ages to arrive so we asked for a refund for those and left. Chef Mike couldn't keep up! So disappointing!
