The pink pub on George Street, with drag most nights
The Queens Arms is the pink pub on George Street, just off St James's Street in Kemptown, and it's been a gay pub for around four decades. Inside it's all pink and glitter, and the reason people come is the drag: cabaret runs through the week, with karaoke nights in the mix. At Pride the pub has put a cabaret stage out on George Street. It's an easy first stop on a Kemptown night, with the rest of the village a couple of minutes' walk away.
