Came here on a Saturday at around 11:45 am. There were no issues getting a table. We had a party of 5, but it seems like most of the tables are for two to four people. We were able to pull up a chair to our table for four. The tables in general seemed a bit small. The food was very good! They had some really good typical pub dishes like meatloaf, shepherd's pie, fish and chips, some great burger choices as well! We also had some really good appetizers. The service was excellent. Our server was very open about what dishes he liked and didn't like. Made some great recommendations! I definitely recommend giving this place a try.

I’ve always loved The Globe and its eclectic mix of intellectuals, grad students, alumni and professors. The food is excellent, with the Reuben standing out as a must-try and the tomato soup delivering comforting flavor that pairs perfectly with it. Drinks are well crafted, and the Salty Dawg in particular is fantastic, making it easy to see why this place remains a favorite in the Athens scene.

The food was good. I had the Lebanese bowl. I'd hoped to get fish, but the menu was out of date. The cocktails were okay, but this bar was so loud and crowded that I couldn't hear myself think. It's probably fine when it's not busy, but it was super busy when we were there.

It was a nice atmosphere and the food was pretty good. They had an Irish band playing, it was a good time. I had the black bean burger which was very tasty.

Globe chips and pretzel bites were good. Good tea. The Reuben was a little thin (very little meat and 1000 island) and bland. Turkey club was great. Tomato soup was excellent. The fried fish was not fresh and under-seasoned. Chips were ok. So a little good and a little bad. Around 100$.

I was served water with visible bacterial growth in the glass and the food was pretty bad. However, Amy Adams showed up while I was there, so 2 stars instead of 1

Excellent food! Not your typical bar food. Great bartender. He was very attentive and told me about the wall art they have hanging up.

The food is not to my taste. In my opinion, it was tasteless and had no special taste. The service was good and upon entering, they welcomed the customer with a glass of water and ice. The atmosphere of the bar and restaurant was great and relaxing and dynamic at the same time. Meanwhile, I left my water bottle and came back tomorrow and they kept it for me. The staff were kind, warm and polite
