Globe Inn, Tamworth

A fine building from the outside,the liberal use of mirrors and chrome internally lessen the appeal,despite a traditional fireplace with glazed tiles.Nothing wrong with my pint of Bass either,but I was a little underwhelmed on my visit.

The Victorian exterior is impressive but the interior perhaps less so. It's a large open plan area which put me in mind of a Toby Inn. A couple of televisions were showing the racing channel and there seems to be an interest in the sport of Kings with various pictures showing races and the odd day out advertised. There are rooms here and I'd guess that they'll do functions as well. Ales were Worthington Cask, Holdens Mild, GK Alepril Fool and a very acceptable pint of Bass. Ok for a quick pint or two but I'd probably head over the road to The Sir Robert Peel for a longer stay.
