Queens Arms

   

 
The Queens Arms was situated at 36 Kelburne Road. It was demolished after its closure and the site is now occupied by flats.
 

 
Review from tantallon.org.uk:
John Smith Smooth £1.90
Dry Blackthorn £2.10
Budweiser £2.10 (16.xii.1997)

Right community pub this is - there's childrens' parties and regular discos. On the other hand, everything here is in kegs, and the lighting's rather odd - it looks as if it's being floodlit from a tremendous distance. This is probably due to the neon signs behind the bar and the concealed UV lamps.
The decor is woody, with green seating and fake beams in the ceiling. The curtains are a bit unpleasant as well. They do cashew nuts, though, and there's an indoors bit next to the Gents (clean enough, fifteen degrees, but not unlike an old swimming pool's) where you can park your bike.
(16.xii.1997)

Gordon Wood warns:
Apparently this used to be a Harvester pub/restaurant. A LibDem canvasser had hordes of unpleasant characters shouting 'vote BNP' erupt out of the pub as he went past last week. (9.vi.1999)
