Globe — Restaurant in London

Located in the heart of London, my visit to The Globe was an absolute delight. This traditional English pub effortlessly combines classic charm with a warm and inviting atmosphere. With origins dating back to the 18th century, The Globe seamlessly blends history with modern amenities. Its beer garden and sports viewing area add a contemporary touch to the pub’s historical ambiance.

When it comes to the menu, The Globe truly exemplifies traditional English cuisine. Their fish and chips are an absolute standout, featuring perfectly crispy and golden batter that encases the freshest fish. Paired with hand-cut chips, this dish is truly unforgettable. Another classic option on the menu is their pie, which is equally impressive. Filled with rich flavors that speak of high-quality ingredients and skilled preparation, it’s a true culinary delight.

One intriguing aspect of The Globe is its proximity to Wembley Stadium, making it the perfect gathering spot for football enthusiasts before or after a game. The atmosphere during match days is electric, with fans coming together to share their passion for the sport. Moreover, the pub’s location opposite Baker Street Station places it near iconic landmarks such as Madame Tussauds and the Sherlock Holmes Museum, making it an attractive destination for tourists seeking an authentic English pub experience.

It’s worth mentioning their commendable efforts in sustainability, particularly through their plastic recycling initiatives, which contribute positively to the environment.

I have ended up in the pub a few times as it is near a lot of work places and close to a tube to get me home after! My visits have normally been spurred on by the need to find a pub in the area that is showing the football / rugby. They have lots of screens so matter where you stand / sit, you can get eyes-on the game. Even though when it is really busy, you can get served almost straight away, which is something I have to say is a real bonus. The toilets are a bit of a mission to get to, down the stairs, round several corners and then finally you can pee! There are enough tables and "barrel-tops" to stand by if you want to sit outside. The pricing is average for London. It's good for sports watching and to roll over the road to a tube station, but that is where my appreciation of this place ends. I wouldn't really go here for drinks with friends for a catch up or for food. It really is just to watch the game and for that it serves it's purpose well. If I am in the area and want to watch a game it's top of my list, for anything else, there are plenty of better bars/pubs...

The Globe is what I would consider a typical, established London restaurant. It is in a highly touristy area very near the Beatles store, Sherlock Holmes Museum and Madame Tussauds but when we went for lunch there was no wait. At first we were a little confused because there no one came to take our order. We then learned that you choose what you want and either order from your phone or step up to the bar and the bartender will place the order for you. They offered a Gin Bramble on the menu (my favorite drink!) but it was just okay. Other brambles that I have had contained fresh blackberries and mint but this one seemed to just be a flavored spritzer. So the drink was disappointing but my meal of fish and chips was excellent. My husband really enjoyed his shepherd's pie. The bathrooms are downstairs but they do have a handicapped accessible bathroom on the main floor. Since I don't do stairs well, I used that one. I've certainly seen cleaner, nicer bathrooms but it served the purpose and was...
