For "Terrible, rude service, passable food" contributer
by JColleary at Citysearch
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.

Inviting atmosphere, daily food specials and affordable drinks combine to produce one of the Back Bay's top after-work meeting spots.

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. Considering the neighborhood, the drink list is relatively affordable--10 martinis and 10 frozen concoctions all less than $7. Upscale bar food includes soups, salads, appetizers and entrees ranging from Californian shrimp salad to fish and chips.
