A welcoming village pub with notably strong value, family facilities and a spacious garden, though roast execution and occasional food availability have varied.
The Globe delivers solid food quality and notably attentive service, earning strong loyalty among locals who return for Sunday roasts and value-driven promotions. However, inconsistency in execution, particularly with larger parties and roast preparation, prevents a stronger grade. The charming village setting and garden appeal offer comfort rather than destination draw.
The Globe is a warm, lived-in village pub where the welcome is as central as the food. Reviews describe a cosy interior, a sizeable church-side garden and staff who make both casual drinkers and celebration groups feel at home; one recurring impression is that the team keeps the atmosphere friendly even when the pub is busy. The cooking is classic British pub fare rather than ambitious or experimental: pies, cod and chips, burgers, curry, steak, belly pork and familiar puddings. Food is usually described as hot, generous and home-cooked, with excellent-value lunch and steak promotions doing much of the heavy lifting. The caveat is consistency: several older diners found Sunday roasts dry or poorly executed, while more recent feedback is notably positive. Families are especially well catered for. The children's menu includes pizza, nuggets, sausage, scampi, cheeseburger and jacket potato options, while reviews confirm high chairs, baby-changing facilities and a playground. The garden is a genuine advantage for younger children, though booking ahead is sensible at busy times and the menu is firmly traditional rather than adventurous.

The Globe is strongest when you lean into its classic pub cooking, especially the cod, steak and ale pie, and traditional puddings.
It is an easygoing family pub, but busy services, variable Sunday roasts, and garden-only dog access are worth planning around.
Expect a cosy village-pub welcome indoors and a spacious, child-friendly garden outside, with a livelier feel when the pub is busy.
