picture of Queens Arms (ex The Page)Compared to its predecessor, the Queen's Arms offers a more pub-like name, decor and atmosphere. Indeed, you could say it's a good barometer for the prevailing fashion of pubs in London. Out goes the stripped look and Thai food, in comes proper tables, subtler lighting and a British pub grub menu (albeit an expensive one - the burger is £9). Pleasantly busy on our midweek visit, it was filled with younger locals and an upmarket afterwork crowd. A couple of ales (Doom Bar and London Pride) were very well kept and service of pleasant and efficient - shame the marginally too loud thumping house music seemed slightly out of place. The refurbishment here throws down the gauntlet by directly completing for the type of drinkers who usually gravitate to the nearby Warwick or Marquis of Westminster. It's all very safe and nice here, but a cynic would say that we now have a row of pubs virtually indistinguishable from each other.
