The Scene – A crowd of mostly 20-somethings fills the rows of booths and tables lining the walls of the restaurant (the bar is in the back). Dim, low-hanging lights, wood paneling and dark high-backed booths add to the coziness. A diverse drink menu includes frozen drinks, martinis, 20 different wines and eight beers on tap. During the warmer months, more than a dozen tables out front offer great views of Boylston Street. – – The Draw – Three well-placed TVs near the bar--including two large flat screens--provide great viewing of all the local sports teams.…

For "Terrible, rude service, passable food" contributer

by JColleary

If i remember correctly, my girlfriend and i were seated at the bar, and we remember your party coming in. First and foremost, i think that you should probably tell everyone on here that you were on a pub crawl. And also, the Globe was the 5th place you had been throughout your bar hopping because someone had said they saw you at Whiskeys beforehand. Your party was loud and obnoxious, i recall because i asked the waitress who you guys were, you were all dressed up as characters from Caddy Shack. What i can also remember - is the Rodney Dangerfield guy yelling very loudly for the waitress to "go f%$k herself" and refusing to pay the bill. You guys were already belligerantly drunk and out of line. If i was the manager, i would have called the police on your party, you're probably lucky she didn't. I live in the back bay and have been going to globe since it was Backbay bistro, and personally, its not the place for drunk, loud and obnoxious people. Next time, have more class by having respect for the other diners, and second - have respect for yourself when the bill arrives. Try not to be too drunk next time to remember how many drinks you drank.

I loved this place but reading the most recent review it has

by CSMobileUser

I used to work right next to the globe and my cousin and I were in there a lot. Sometimes there would be more, but everytime we were in there it was great service and food! I'm thinking maybe they have hired the wrong people because it was a great place and now I might not go anymore because of that review..I feel horible for that party to be treated like that! That is outragious!! I would have not even paid the bill!!

The Details on Globe Bar & Grill

Parking:

Street parking on Boylston Street is tough to find. Instead of driving, take the T to Copley station and walk two blocks east.

Save Money:

The appetizers are pretty large portions, so you can split one or two with the table.
