The Queen's Arms (sometimes styled "The Queens Arms") is a Grade II listed public house in Birmingham, England, built c. 1870.[1] It is noted for the tiled art nouveau signage on its exterior, which was remodelled in 1901 to the designs of the architect, Joseph D. Ward for its then owners, Mitchells & Butlers.[1][2]

The red brick building sits on the corner of Charlotte Street and Newhall Street, on the edge of the city's Jewellery Quarter.[1] It was given Grade II listed status in April 2004.[1]

In January 2024 a major refurbishment, following a change of ownership, was announced.[3]

Scenes for the BBC serial television drama Line of Duty were filmed in the pub.[4]
