"Best fried clams in the world" Food & Wine Magazine.
Arnold's seafood is so fresh, any fisherman would approve. Native lobster, local raw bar, cocktails, gourmet ice cream, mini golf.
Arnold's owner is Nathan “Nick” Nickerson, a true Cape Cod native and Mayflower descendant. Nick grew up surrounded by the sea and worked on farms and with family in Cape Cod restaurants. 35 years ago he founded what has become the world-famous Arnold’s Lobster & Clam Bar. From the start, crowds were drawn to the fresh, native seafood, generous portions, friendly service and fun Cape Cod atmosphere found at Arnold's.

# 1 secret spot on Cape Cod for the best lobster roll
Washington Post
“Arnold’s boasts a raw bar with superlative local clams. If you overindulge there’s a miniature golf course next door that might burn off a calorie or two.”
USA Today
“By day, it’s a boisterous, kid-friendly spot that doles out lobster rolls and fried seafood to families straight from (or headed to) the beach; by night, it’s a laid-back watering hole/raw bar where jovial owner Nick Nickerson mans the ‘shucking shack.’ ... Everything on the vast menu of seafood classics is done to Nick’s uncompromising standards, and the thin onion rings are almost worth a trip by themselves.”

“Outer Cape’s Best Clams, Onion Rings and Outdoor Dining Award goes to Arnold’s Restaurant.”
Arnold's Mini Golf is the Cape's newest, most beautiful course. The 18 challenging holes were designed by a golf architect with waterfalls, streams, ponds, historic Cape sights and a treasure chest. The fun is perfect for birthday parties and a great way to build family memories.
Arnold's Gourmet Ice Cream is right next door with over 30 flavors of premium hard and soft ice cream, frozen yogurt, slush, milk shakes, all your favorite ice cream concoctions, for sure.
