Globe Nightclub — Restaurant in Spokane

First time attending drag brunch and will absolutely never return to this establishment. Came to celebrate a birthday party of 8. First off, they told us they do not take reservations and to get there at 9am if we want a guaranteed table to accommodate our party. Then we got there and the doors had a little hand written note saying they opened at 10am. So, frustrated that we all woke up an hour early for no reason, we waited in our car for an hour. Then we waited outside the entrance door for 20 minutes while it was freezing because we were that determined to get a booth before anyone else. Then when the door finally opened, we were literally the first ones inside and grabbed a booth. Then the place started filling up. Ten minutes after sitting in our booth, the awfully rude bartender came over to us and said he had to move us because of a party that “reserved our booth” (there was nothing on the table to indicate this). At this point, there were no booths available anymore. We were the only ones who had to move and we were literally the first ones inside. Then he said (in a truly conniving tone) that we could have called them to reserve a table. First of all, we did call and were told to come at 9am. What was funny was that I also called literally 20 times between 9am and 10am with no answer and the bartender rudely said “no you didn’t, our phones never rang” as if I was just making it up. He said maybe I called the wrong number and I said “no, it was the globes number without a doubt. The greeting said “thanks for calling the globe”, but nice try. I asked him if he could tell me the number for the globe and he didn’t know it, nor did the other two workers next to him.

Ultimately, our party had to be separated. The experience went downhill from there. Quite literally non-existent service. The table that was next to us waited 45 minutes with no service. Then one of the girls went to the bar to ask for a drink and (that same bartender) aggressively told them to go sit down. They were so taken back by his cold demeanor that they immediately left. The bartender isn’t just unprofessional, he’s mean.

I will say that we appreciated that the DJ came over to apologize, but other than that, it was a nightmare of an experience.

When we were ready to leave, my friends waited at the bar for 20 minutes trying to pay while obviously getting ignored. They eventually gave up and we were so close to just walking out.

By the end, they ended up comping our bill. But the bartender did it in such a way that he was rude about it and just wanted us to leave. We still left him way more cash than he deserved and regretted that we didn’t just tip the drag queens with it.

The drag queens who perform there and the LGBTQ community as a whole deserve better...

My husband and a group of our friends went to the Globe this last Saturday. We are all married with children, and hardly ever go out downtown, so we were very excited to get time away and enjoy the evening. I will say that our initial experience here was great, the music was great, the drinks were good, we sat out on the patio and it was such a fun, upbeat, great time. The outside bar was also very nice and convenient. Things took a turn from there. When we first arrived, the bar tender at the main bar asked me if i would like to keep our tab open, I said yes that would be great, and she held onto my Visa. When we left the globe to to to a new venue downtown, I forgot to close out my tab. I realized that very quickly after we had arrived at the new venue, but i knew it was safe with the bartender so i was going to have my husband pick it up on Monday. Sunday, someone used my Visa at the Spokane valley Walmart for over a hundred dollars. When i called Monday morning to be sure that they had my Visa, and this must be a mistake, they informed me that my Visa was not there. I told the gentleman that they ran my card at the end of Saturday night for the $27 tab that i had, so they must have my card. He said yes, if there are any open tabs, we run them at the end of the night, and put the left cards in a box. When i told him that someone used my card at Walmart on Sunday, and to me this means one of his employees stole my Visa and used it, He blew me off. His attitude completely changed, and he Referenced that I must have "lost" my card because we were in fact at a bar drinking. This is absolute nonsense. I left my card in the hands of their employees, which offered to take it and start a tab, they ran my card at the end of the evening, and took it. Do not trust this place. Definitely do not leave a tab open with...

I was traveling thru from a 21 day fire assignment in Winthrop, WA on my way back to South Dakota. I was Staying at the Holiday Inn up the street, and the front desk clerk recommended this place. I walked down and was greeted right when walking in, the bartender was very polite and prompt. Had a great selection of taps , so of course I ordered a beer 1st off. (21 days on the fire line i was needing one). I ordered my supper and the bartender was very helpful in that decision process. I was greeted by some friendly locals at the bar, my food was very prompt and good. I had my dinner and finished my beer and was ready for bed. (21 days in a tent, i was looking forward to a real bed). I went to pay my tab and the bartender said the folks at the bar picked it up already and was told to tell me Thank you for all you do. I just want to say Thank You to those folks and the establishment for that kind gesture, that there made my entire assignment worth every bit. It’s tough being away from your wife and kids for that long and the job we do, not knowing w=hat can happen. It reminded me there are still Good people out there and reminded me why I do what I do. Thank You again & if I am ever back in the area i will make it a point to stop or recommend to anyone...
