TMZ reports the actor was taken into custody in the parking lot of an Arby's restaurant shortly after midnight.
The outlet cited police records which stated his blood alcohol level read at, or above 0.08 per cent.
With his grey short hair and goatee beard, the 47-year-old looks worlds away from the height of his fame in the 00s.
Tom played the lead role in superhero series Smallville, which followed the coming-of-age adventures of a teenage Superman/Clark Kent.

The series ran from 2001 for 10 seasons until it ended in May 2011.
Since then, Tom has starred in Lucifer and Professionals, as well as a film released last year called Mafia Wars.
But Smallville is definitely what the actor is best known for, and fans of the show couldn't help but comment on how different Tom looks in his mug shot after it was released by authorities.
One wrote online: "That's Tom Welling? Damn he aged a lot."

Another added: "He aged .. he used to be so handsome."

Tom has since been released from custody after he was cited for the violation, but is yet to comment publicly.
The actor is married to Jessica Rose Lee - an equestrian - and the couple have two sons together.
They married in November 2019 in San Ynez, California.
Tom was previously married to Jamie White - a model - until their divorce after 10 years of marriage in 2013.
