The Speedwell Bar

The Speedwell is in fact one of the very few pubs in Scotland, and the only one in Dundee so far, which has been listed for the quality of its interior, and one of the few surviving pubs mentioned in the definitive 1983 book “People’s Palaces, Victorian and Edwardian Pubs of Scotland”. The Speedwell is one of the finest examples of an Edwardian Bar embracing all that was good in pub architecture at the beginning of the twentieth century.
