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!

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.
