The Globe Inn, Weymouth

I think that the Globe is split into two rooms, but I only visited the main bar area in the right hand side. A standard draught selection was available and I counted six hand pumps. One of these was unused leaving Brains Rev James, Sharps Doom Bar, Ringwood’s Old Thumper, Dartmoor Brewery’s Jail Ale and Hopback’s Crop Circle as the ale options. At the right hand end of the bar is a dartboard and a small plasma screen was showing muted Olympic coverage. There is a nautical theme that runs throughout and a pool table is advertised, which I suppose must be located in the left hand side of the pub. I found the service to be friendly and a good atmosphere was generated by the other clientele. Before I left on the recent Thursday evening I visited the pub started to really fill up with an older crowd. This is certainly one of the better pubs of the area and I would make a point of revisiting if I found myself in the area again.

I spent a few days in Weymouth and this was the best pub I went in (and I went in quite a few !). Three real ales were available and the Ringwood Old Thumper was excellently kept. Obviously popular with locals but everyone was very friendly including the bar staff. Good comfortable seating and general ambience. Handy for the old harbour area.

The Globe is a small corner pub that is not far from the harbour. Once inside this pub pub there was one carpeted room and a seperate pool room,the pub seemed a bit old fashioned and children are not allowed in here. There was one real ale on the bar which was Wadworth 6X this was quite a nice drink. Not a bad pub if you want a quiet drink. Pub visited 23 August 1999.
