Globe Inn in Bridgend

We booked a table 3 weeks ago at 3 and then told no table free so no.sunday lunch 😡

Didn't eat this time. As a drinking venue it's great. Close to Trecco where we own a caravan. Show all the sports and really friendly local people. Always come here when we're staying at Trecco. Have eaten here before so will base the score on previous visits. Good size portions.

Don't go..... phoned to make reservation was informed because we had a small dog needed to be seated in bar area and no need to book. On arrival the smell of toilets was overwhelming we went to bar and requested menu we cleaned a table to sit at, full of people drinking it's a pub and that is fine but couldn't face the thought of ordering even a drink with the smell of the toilets so we left without ordering anything. There are much better pet friendly places to eat went to Cheetahs had amazing meal really cheap and our dog had a chicken breast free of charge and a very warm welcome. Will never return to The Globe

Yeah, well-priced food in pleasant surroundings.

Fantastic food ,beer & service my only quibble they need to have sharper knives available for customers as current knives extremely blunt , meat cooked to perfection but very hard to cut with blunt knife. 👍(carvery)

Lovely staff, very accommodating. We showed up last minute on a busy Sunday lunch afternoon. Children were picky, again very patient and nore importantly my disabled nan was especially taken cared off. Lovely fresh cavery with plenty of variety and a big thank you to Cally for taking care of us.

Great food, cooked well. Good service. Reasonably priced considering today’s prices of everything. Toilets ok, dirty men letting it down.

A really friendly inn. I suffer with arthritis and tunnel vision so went in the bar at first. The bar lady pointed me in the direction I needed to go and a friendly local gentleman took my arm and led me to the restaurant. An excellent first impression The food was really good and generous portions and the service excellent.

A great pub, tremendous food excellent quality, huge cod, delicious curry

Yesterday my wife and I attended the Globe Inn in Newton near Porthcawl and were greatly pleased and impressed with our 'lunches' here. We both had different main-course chicken main-courses and were very pleasingly impressed. The tastes, course-contents, and service were excellent and the prices were surprisingly very good. We will look forward to revisiting The Globe Inn for another food-enjoying visit in the future. The location of this restaurant is good, being close to the excellent sea-side town of Porthcawl. Our thanks to the staff are given again. Brian and Sian Sewell

Cracking food very tasty and a good portion, busy when we called but they fitted us in

Outsiders not welcome, the younger members of staff were lovely but others were rude no manners at all

We came for a weeks holiday driving down from the Midlands on bank holiday Monday. The Globe Inn was the only place serving food, but the food was delicious. Kids enjoyed their pizza and burger, and we enjoyed scampi and fish and chips. Staff were really friendly and welcoming. Would really recommend.

As an English family on holiday we came to this pub for a meal, felt very unwelcome majority of the staff were rude and clearly have an attitude problem! They may aswell have thrown my children's desserts at them absolutely shocking!! Totally disappointed would NOT recommend if your out the area!!!!!!!!!!!

Food was horrible owner or manager unfriendly but other staff lovely dinner was cold and not nice . Was told while booking would have to have table for four with chair on end for granddaughter landed up in alcove with broken bench and two chairs told to arrive on time cause of quick turnaround left to wait outside in pouring rain and got charged £72 for horrible experience

Delicious food . Highly recommended

Had a stunning meal here last night thoroughly enjoyed the food. The staff are very welcoming very attentive. It was very busy but the service was spot on food was very nice indeed. 10/10

Walked here from our base in Trecco pay it’s just round the corner so very handy. Lovely warm welcome. They squeezed 6 of us in last minute so we were happy, nice choices on the menu, staff are very lovely wine and beer was good. The food was very nice, however could’ve been a bit hotter. That was the only thing that we didn’t like.

Lovely food and excellent service

Stopped here for a quick bite to eat well we were waiting for our keys for our caravan. It was very nice very stylish pub staff extremely welcoming, food was nice. Prices were a little bit expensive but you get what you pay for overall great find.

Had a great meal here when we were last in Porthcawl lovely food very reasonably priced. Some staff were lovely but some a little bit miserable.

Was recommended this place from someone who was staying in a caravan park. staff really nice, a little bit expensive for the food and the amount you got and unfortunately we had to send the food back because it was cold. They were very nice about it. However I just feel that the food had been sitting around for awhile And wasn’t as fresh as it should’ve been. Lovely pub just needs some small improvements.

The place has an extensive vegetarian menu and allows dogs in the bar. There is ample seating outside to make use of during the sunny weather! The food was delicious and the vegetarian shepherds pie comes highly recommended.

Excellent food good price much better than Trecco bay guys and much cheaper and good quality service so we booked in for Sunday lunch today

Excellent atmosphere in an excellent place. Superb people

Sunday cavery, didn't book but had to sit in the beer garden as was very busy. Is dog friendly too

Food and staff nice .Pity about the sewer smell in the corridor leading to the ladies toilets.

Great pub food with friendly staff

Lovely friendly atmosphere , staff very friendly and welcoming , food was piping hot and very generous portions .will definitely return .

Very friendly service, good quality food & reasonable prices.

Service was quick, and Food was delicious. Also prices were good compared to others locally.

What a great pub. Excellent food and lovely, chatty staff. Couldnt have been more obliging. Also, Guinness zero for £3!!! What a refreshing change not being stung as the designated driver! If you're staying at Trecco Bay, this is a perfect alternative to the fast food outlets. We called in on friday for dinner and booked for Sunday lunch. Generous portions and highly recommended 👌

Nice pub nice food ...says it all . we had Sunday lunch

Amazing food & drinks reasonable prices Atmosphere a bit lacking

Didn't ho here Was in petrol station next door lol.

Excellent food and customer service

Good selection of drinks. Nice outside areas. Look forward to returning 👌🏻

Carvery the meat was chewy the girls working there forget to fetch your drinks very disappointed as we have been here many of times but won't be going back

Would have give it one star but the man who served gave us the food was very nice and helpful

I wouldn’t recommend it we booked a Sunday lunch and we didn’t even get to eat in there, we were shouted at for sitting in the wrong place and the atmosphere was terrible we will not be coming back! 😒

When to the globe for meal I have heard so much bout the food very disappointed one of main meal had pull ring off a can stuck to the bottom chicken melt if that was not bad enough when the deserts came one of them had a peace plastic in the desert very disappointed will not be going back to that pub again they have lost our custom we spent over hundred pounds with drinks I do not recommended them

Gone off rotten salad was brown and soggy .. greecy chips and greecy onion rings wouldent go back there was diagusting

A great pub with lovely friendly staff and excellent food aswell highly recommend the globe

Brilliant food Brilliant staff 👏

What a great pub, the food was amazing. We were a group of about 20. Adults and kids. We more or less ordered all our food at the same time and all came out in a reasonable time. I had the Pie, a lots of jealous faces lol it was lush. Prices wise. I thought it was spot on. Staff were very helpful, friendly and welcoming. I would 100% recommend 👌

Absolutely amazing place. Great service, great food. Nothing was too much trouble for staff. Will definitely be back.

Looking forward to a return visit. Dog friendly, lovely were staff and the food was amazing.

All day breakfast was nice and large portion too. Family members had the burger and another had a lasagne again good large portions and food was enjoyed. Would I go again? Yes. 👍

Nice friendly little pub ,we were in porthcawl for the weekend and would definitely go back to this pub again x x

Decent pub ,good tasty food, bar area has pool table and dartboard ,well priced

Meal with friends. Good choice of food on the menu. The Fish and Chips and Home made meat pie were served hot. The quality and quantity of the food was good for the price.

I can’t recommend the Globe enough. Fantastic food, fantastic staff and all at a reasonable price. Been going to the Globe for a couple of years now and have never had a bad experience. Great for family meals and couples too!

We come here regularly for a spot of lunch both in the week and on a Sunday and have never been disappointed. We have chosen a number of meals on the menu and they have always been great quality, tasty and plentiful and the service second to none. For our latest lunch here we had the Chef's Lasagne and the Broccoli and Cream Cheese Potato Bake. Both meals were plentiful and clearly home made with wonderful chunks of minced beef and oodles of cheese in the lasagne - a big shout out to the chef Dewi who is doing a wonderful job! We will be back soon and would highly recommend you do too.

Had a family meal here last night,food was absolutely beautiful and the staf were very happy and friendly,will definitely be going back x

Great service, food was very tasty

We absolutely loved this place when we visited a couple of years back. The food was faultless and very nice which prompted us to book for mothers day. We drove from England to be here because that's how good it was. But unfortunately today we all opted for a carvery and it really wasn't very pleasant at all. The selection of 3 meats was good but the quality of them was really poor, it was all very dry and fatty! The beef was gray in colour and had a lot of what seemed, uncooked fat around one edge of it all, the gravy was "lumpy", the Yorkshire puddings were soggy and the veg was below average. The stuffing balls were spot on but that was about it. The service is decent but the food today was very disappointing. Won't be returning for a carvery but if I'm ever passing again I'd definitely pop in for your other menu.

The globe has been our go to place in porthcawl for over 7 years, since purchasing a holiday home close to the venue. We have usually had a great experience there... however recently we visited and my husband asked if the football would be shown.... the bar staff put the football on for him and we played some pool and bought a couple of rounds. Our plan was to stay for the afternoon watch the game, and then order some food later on. Unfortunately at half time the game was turned over to the rugby. Upon going to the bar and asking for the game to be put back on I was very rudely advised that because we were the only ones who wanted to watch the game other people who came in after us took priority! We would have appreciated some warning that the game was going to be switched over so we would have had an option to go somewhere else. The attitude of the staff was disgusting our family will never return. If you plan your day around sport don't go here because they turn your game off half way depending on where the money is!

Best food we’ve had out in porthcawl! Very cheap for amazing tasty Food, portion sizes were incredible! Definitely visiting again when back on the next holiday! 10/10**

I have been to this venue many a time. I’ve been with my family, been with friends and have also been there with my children their friends and my two dogs. Cally and her staff are so lovely. We always have the best of welcome. Whether we dine there for lunch or dinner, or go for a casual drink at teatime or just to watch sport or live music, we always enjoy ourselves and nothing is ever too much for the bar staff. I highly recommend the Globe to anyone looking for a family friendly venue in Porthcawl.

Absolutely amazing as always, we have never had a bad meal here, went for a carvery and was gorgeous 😍 thank you again and all staff

The Globe is a great pub with a good restaurant. The menu is varied, with excellent vegetarian and vegan options and the best fish and chips around! The service is fast and the staff are friendly and welcoming. We had a lovely night. Highly recommend.

Lovely place and staff members are so hospitable! The food is always spot on and there is such a variety that anyone can find something to eat!

Fantastic service and the staff are so personable! Really friendly environment and A++++ food! Very accommodating to everyone!

Lovely little pub. Food Is always cooked to perfection & reasonably priced The staff are always so welcoming and friendly 😊 The owners are fab people & always more than happy to help Highly recommended

I don’t go out often as feeling the money pinch in the cost of living, but when I do, or even when family visit from England, this is our go to pub ALWAYS!! I remember my now 7 year old being 3 days old, and we came here for food even then!! Still go to this date, which says a lot about the place! I’ve never once had a bad meal here, and Cally and her staff cannot be more welcoming or accommodating even if you’ve just popped in without booking. Absolute lovely vibe in there, and always looking forward to our next visit. Reasonably priced and delicious food and drinks too! Just wish I had some photos to post, but we never take any! Love from, the ever returning Wraight family :)

Excellent Beer, especially the Stella, at a great price. The food is on point every time we visit, which is regularly. The staff are always efficient, friendly and helpful. For the Rugby, football or just a cracking night out I highly recommend. See you next week

The food was very nice & plentiful, the staff were very helpful & friendly, we had a very pleasant experience here & will definitely recommend the Globe inn to friends & family.

Well where do we start .... We have been coming to the Globe for a few years now and have NEVER had a bad experience!! We came for a pre Christmas dinner with friends and family and it was beautiful The food is always beautiful in taste and always served hot and fresh The CARVERY is to die for ... whenever we are I'm Porthcawl on a Sunday we book in. Staff here are always polite and welcoming !! They can't do enough for you. The whole place is spotless and they have a lovely beer garden that also offers shade in the summer months. Also our fur babies can join us in the bar area. Lots of live music events offered here which is an added bonus after a lovely meal 😋 Well done Cally and all her staff keep up the good work we will see you again this weekend when the caravan park opens back up 😍

Had a lovely carvery today, beef was perfect, as were the roasties, crunchy but fluffy. Veg was cooked to my liking (soft) and the gravy was absolutely beautiful, meaty and thick...we'll be back for sure.

Fantastic pub in porthcawl great welcome on entry taken to our table where a waitress then takes our drinks order and our meal order very clean and friendly there staff are. Amazing go above and beyond

Staff are always welcoming and friendly , good service & food . I always go for the chicken & bacon salad , my husband & friends thoroughly enjoyed the fish & chips , burger and the Philly cheese steak . Will definetly be visiting again...

Nice food and quick service bar lady was grumpy tho

Friendly staff, best fish and chips ever and we live near the Pilot in Dungeness. The Pilot is great but this was perfect!

Came to the Globe Inn with our disabled son in December on a Saturday for dinner off the menu (not carvery). 2023 . Fabulous food and great service. We really enjoyed all our meals . As usual the service was excellent. The meals are reasonably...

We brought a group of families from our charity along for lunch on New Year’s Eve. The food was delicious, the surroundings very welcoming and comfortable. The prices were very reasonable too which made it affordable for us to bring 27 people along!

Great pub Lovely food Friendly staff Great entertainment We eat there at least once a week throughout the caravan season and one of the best Sunday roasts in the area.

Lovely family run pub with good home cooked food. We love the Sunday carvery and visit most Sundays. My son is autistic and struggles in some settings but loves the globe. They always go over and above to support him and he loves the carvery...

came here for a carvery on new years day and all I can say was wow the food blew us away everything was stunning lots of meat the roasties was out of this world the pigs in blankets was amazing would 10000% recommend this place

Booked here for Christmas Dinner with my wife, fantastic experience, staff were spot on, made us feel as if we were the only ones there, three courses served perfectly, not rushed or left waiting. Sunday lunch here is great, you have choice of carvery or...

Really nice food, everyone enjoyed it, even the kids which is rare. Will definitely go again.

Took almost an hour. Nobody said there was a long wait. I only ordered chicken salad Also peppered chicken, which was served on a cold plate food not hot. Disappointed.

22/12: Couldn't be bothered to cook Had food inside as it was too cold outside. The only table left was the one by the door, so a little chilly at times. Very busy all around & as always the food was top notch. Today we had a prime beef burger & a vegan burger, of which both were delicious 😋 our dog behaved himself & sat under the table. Will go back in the new year ✨️ 31/07: Had a FANTASTIC lunch today. Instead of cooking, we decided to eat out & I've been told to try one of our locals. arrived at 12.30 & the restaurant was packed but as it was a nice afternoon we ate outside. went to the bar & ordered our drinks & food. Excellent service as our previous visit. Then a member of staff bought out a bowl of water for our dog, along with a massive portion of turkey & I mean it was huge. 5 minutes later we were asked to queue for our carvery. I had beef & pork & my wife had doorstop slices of turkey. with roast potatoes & all the trimmings, my plate was full of fresh cooked amazing food. Next there was 25 minutes of silence while we ate our main course. Sadly there was no room for pudding. Staff were on the ball all the time we were there, collecting glasses, clearing plates & cleaning tables. We would highly recommend this pub for either just a drink, food or a night out. Looking forward to our next visit. Late June:It's like the tardis, much bigger on the inside. Staff 10/10 - friendly, polite & helpful. Even had a bowl of water for our dog. Big car park & ample outside tables. This was our 1st vist & will definitely be returning 😁

Just had cavary and it was delicious. Friendly staff lovely atmosphere. Food everything tasted lovely

Nice pub very welcoming & good food

Visited The Globe on 12 December for a Christmas Dinner. It was the worst Christmas Dinner I have ever had. The pate starter was tasteless but the main course was the worst! I had turkey, it was served as 2 'hard' lumps - they couldn't...

I visited the Globe this evening and I have to say that it's the worst Christmas meal I have had!!! I had a starter of Pate which was absolutely tasteless followed by a disgusting turkey dinner. I don't like roast potatoes or Yorkshire pudding, there were NO boiled potatoes and the only other veg were 'watery' carrot batons, sprouts (Which I hate) and a red cabbage which I can only describe as a pickled red cabbage gone wrong!!! I paid £25 for 'hard' turkey, half a dozen carrot batons and some gravy. I will NEVER go there ever again, a disgusting rip off!!!!!

Poor, hardly any veg, only roast potatoes, way below standard, and expensive. Desert was so synthetic and disappointing, the good reviews must be friends and family, won't come here again.

I'm mixed in saying this, we had lovely food and one amazing server!!! I get it's not easy running a pub. I myself would take every opportunity to teach how to be efficient in basic service. I really got lucky with the lovely young lady and the chef who catered to my dietary needs. I'll definitely come back because of you two.

Lovely pub, Stella was to die for. Had scampi and chips with gravy corn sauce. Props to the chef never heard of gravy corn before but it’s a game changer. Would highly recommend

The Sunday roast was absolutely amazing the meat was cooked perfect and had plenty of it our plates were full so much flavour and great value the deserts were lovely also..all the staff there are fab really welcoming nothing is to much trouble nice quiet relaxing atmosphere.

The best carvery I have ever had. Amazing waitress and service and very helpful. Also when a 9 year old rates a carvery 10/10 then it says something. (Thanks for the Amazing food! I am definitely coming again child age 9 review)

Lovely pub - Very friendly and Welcoming

Last minute Sunday lunch….called ahead and was fitted in. Lovely pub with a car park to the side. Friendly welcoming staff, comfy chairs and tables not too close to each other. Carvery lunch was beautiful. Choice of two meats, and all the usual trimmings. Cauli...

Beautiful food, great service, and cheaper than I expected, win win win 🏆

Great food and service, wish id been in the bar - sounded great! I also liked the trough urinal. Ill go again and would recommend 100%

Not the best carvery I've had, very small serving area, wouldn't recommend it

Went for Sunday Dinner. Very poor unfortunately. 3 meats on Carvery but only allowed 2. A Pig In Blanket (Not pigs) 1 small frozen Yorkshire Pudding. Chef Serves up Roast and Mashed Potatoes as you're not allowed to helped yourselves. Small veg selection. A real...

Booked last minute for Sunday lunch and we were asked to arrive promptly for our 12pm table as they needed it back by 1pm. This was no problem and when we arrived at 11.55 we were stopped at the door and told they were not yet open. A member of staff arrived couple of minutes later and was let in by what appeared to be the manageress. She said she wouldn't keep us long and on noticing my mother was in a wheelchair said that wheelchair access was through the carpark at the back. We responded that this wasn't a problem as she could walk short distances and we would wait at the door. We then waited outside for another 5 minutes till we noticed some people entering by another door. We followed them in to what was the bar area and had to walk around to the restaurant area. We were annoyed that the manageress has not explained this when she left us at the side entrance, plus once at the restaurant area there were at least 20 other people already there, some already eating so they had clearly been allowed in before 12.00. After this the service was also slow and not particularly professional or friendly. The food was OK, nothing more.

Lovely place the staff worked none stop and they were very friendly, unfortunately the Sunday dinner was awful very bland no taste at all (the meat was ok), kids meals were good and plenty of it Lovely outside area very clean Very disappointed as the globe use to be fantastic for food

We had three meals here in September 2023 whilst staying at the Trecco Bay Holiday Park. The first two were spot on but the Fish & Chips meal let the side down. The fish was all batter & very little fish. We would still recommend this place & would return if in the area.
