Very much the flagship for the more mainstream side of craft beer with the very dull likes of Brewdog and Camden represented. They also have Beavertown’s Neck Oil and Gamma Ray on tap which were both decent but as unexciting as usual. It being Christmas, they were also serving mulled wine while the clientele was a curious mix of suits and top boys.

Has changed completely since this was last reviewed.
It used to be a pretty neglected/tired old boozer with a clientele you might want to be a bit wary of.
Has now whilst keeping the Globe name gone somewhat from one extreme to the other. Well healed clientele now (mainly I'd think from BNP Parabis bank which is huge and very close by); a range of craft ale and trendy food/snacks (many vegan). Perfectly alright for what it is; Camden ales about £5 a pint, but that's not out of kilter with the area and Lisson Grove is now starting to gentrify fairly quickly.

A basic, no-frills, one-roomed boozer betwixt Marylebone Station and Edgware Road. With the décor on the tired-looking side; one of the few redeeming characteristics was that a palatable pint of Doom Bar chimed in at just £3.00.

Rather...colourful.

It`s the "in" pub for sports fans in the vicinity of Marylebone Staions. My father in-law and I was down that way for the England/Pakistan Test Match. On the Saturday we couldn`t find a pub local to our hotel that was showing the cricket. When we got to The Globe they were showing the Rugby League Final, but after speaking to the manager he said he would put the cricket on upstairs in the restaurant area for us. A real nice and helpful touch was that. Nice Guinness and our Scampi and Lasagne dinners too were of a delicious quality. As the evening came in the bar downstairs got raucous as it was full of Leeds Rugby fans watching Manchester United playing West Ham United! Nothing threatening, tho the bar was now ominously issuing out plastic glasses to everyone, but clearly this is not a pub for a quiet pnt and a chat.
On the whole, great service, great goods, but definitely a pub for the louder crowd. 7/10

Another single room pub with a largely older male clientele. The end of the bar seemed to be storing some of the summer furniture and a couple of broken amusement machines which gave the fairly small space an air of neglect. A large flat screen TV on the wall provided football results and the only ale on offer was Abbot Ale (which seemed a pretty odd solo offering to me)
The only real advantage this has is being about 2 minutes from the entrance to Marylebone station and its definitely better than the bar in there although the thirsty commuter would be better off heading in the other direction towards the Hobgoblin.

Dropped in to avoid a horrendous downpour. Friendly barman, but some of the customers watched us a bit warily. I don't think they get many tourists in this place. Watched a bit of cricket over a pint of John Smith's Ultra Smooth. Perfectly nice corner bar.

Located across the street from the Seashell (purveyor of London's best Fish and Chips, according to some), the Globe is ideally situated to provide pints of beer for thirsty take away customers who can't wait to enjoy their meal. On fine days, the Globe puts a few little tables and chairs out on the sidewalk so you can picnic in comfort.

A good acomodating landlord, clientelle a bit rough. Good spot for a drink while waiting for your fish accross the road.
