The Queens Arms: 49 Frederick Street, Edinburgh



I liked this pub. It is a stylish bar, without being overly trendy, and despite its proximity to George Street attracts a laid back and well behaved crowd.

The beer selection is reasonable including bottles of the ilk of Erdinger, though is not overly ambitious. My favourite things about this bar were the attractive barmaids, and book shelf containing a job lot of old books. Highlights of the reading material include; an old medical encyclopaedia, various historical studies and a book of Shakespeare’s plays summarised into a few pages per play.

Other interesting features include empty bottles of wine handing from the ceiling. However it’s not all oddball features. There are TVs in the various corners so you can watch the sport.
Enjoy a book with that pint
