the Goblins Arms

Welcome Adventurer to The Goblins Arms!

“Overall, I would say that The Goblins Arms is definitely worth a visit – just be prepared for a bit of a seedy atmosphere and some potentially questionable meat in the pies. The cheap ale and delicious food make it a great option for those looking to save a bit of coin, just be sure to keep an eye on your belongings while you’re there.” – Volothamp Geddarm
