The Queens
Arms |
Hiding away on Frederick Street as it descends from George Street towards Queen Street is
the Queens Arms. The purple frontage of this cellar bar is easy to miss, but what you find within
makes it worth trying not to miss!

Queens Arms Across Frederick Street |

Internally you find a really large room spread in well divided sections around the
perimeter of an island bar. The end result is a surprisingly intimate series of spaces. There's
plenty of interest on view on the walls, mostly connected with different aspects of Scottish
history.
