The Globe Inn in Christchurch

Had lovely lunch at the Globe Highcliffe with Soren served by Maddi, who was polite efficient and friendly....Would recommend...

The Globe is always an excellent choice for good food, great value and excellent service.

Me and my partner went here for food I ordered a bacon cheeseburger when it arrived it only had one small shrivelled piece of bacon so don’t know if you can actually call that a proper bacon burger. Food was okay all in all but not great. Service was okay wasn’t great though. Food took quite a while to arrive.

Lovely place, reasonably priced, always great food, would definitely recommend 👌

Big place but good service lovely meal . Enjoyed the visit

Great food, fast service, super value. Waitress Maddi very polite. Have visited many times and plan to return again. Big thumbs up.

Great meal tonight. Service fantastic, we were lucky to be served by Maddie and Matt. Will definitely return. Recommend the potato dippers and chocolate sundae!

We were staying in the Premier Inn and had dinner and breakfast in the Globe. Great food and lovely staff … Eszti, Tiegan, Faith, Robby, Sam all made us very welcome.

We visited at lunch time for quick meal. They offer small range of meals at £6 per meal. The meal is smaller than the equivalent from the main menu. The meal was tasty and well prepared. The service was good. The waitress (Maddi) was particularly pleasant. We will visit again for a full meal.

Relaxing meal out with the family. Sirloin steaks were lovely.

Visited yesterday for lunch. The food was very good and great value, at just £6 per person. Our server Maddi was very polite and helpful. Would thoroughly recommend

Excellent meals . Service a tad slow due to being lunchtime. Highly recommended

Wonderful food and our wonderful server Maddi

Not bad bar for a drink. Friendly staff. Nice atmosphere

Lovely service from Maddie, very polite and pleasant experience.

We went for a quick drink, as we had business to deal with further up the road. Very pleasantly received, wonderful to see there is a clear bar area, where you can also have a meal, while watching sport on the television. Very relaxed and admirable atmosphere. It would be a pleasure to return and hopefully sample the food as it appears the prices to be very reasonable, not only for the drinks but especially the prices of the food. Hope to visit again soon.

I took my parents here for a meal. I tried to order Scampi .. no scampi I then tried to order curry ... No rice. There also only appeared to be one draft ale on. Felt sorry for the staff front of house who were getting it in the neck.

Great meal tonight. All the food was piping hot and the service was friendly and first class. I know there are issues with the pub receiving orders and some items are not available but please remember this is not their fault. Maddi was amazing. Very friendly and great service 👍

Very friendly service. Food was freshly cooked.

The Globe used to be the best value around but it has in my opinion lost its way. Yesterday was not too busy but the wait for both service and food was very long 50 minutes from being seated. When the meal came , haddock and chips for 3 of us, the batter was uncooked. Sent it back and was better when it eventually was replaced. We gathered there was new kitchen staff but also not enough waitering staff to cover. We know there are still food supply issues but come on The Globe you used to be better than this pre Covid!?!

Good reasonable priced food, needs decor update a bit faded.

We went as a group of eight on boxing day. It was prebooked, having already chosen our meals and said a deposit. We were seated and fairly quickly got drinks. Then we waited, and waited and waited. Eventually we got our starters. The main course followed eventually again after a long wait and the means were mostly cold. Dessert was probably a longer wait. If we gad walked in iff the street the delays might have been understandable. In the circumstances though the long delays and overall lack of any quality meals was not acceptable. This is by no means a unique experience and it has to be said The Globe is rrhularly unprepared for, and seems to be unable to cope with any busy period.

Staff awful, service rubbish,atmosphere awful. Restaurant toilets disgusting. Alot of items on breakfast menu, not available. We stayed there in June this year,and it was OK then, but I'm afraid it's gone downhill since then. Shan't be staying again.

A very dissappointing lunch. Due to lack of stock very little choice . Starters we has lver pate lacking in any form of butter or greenery. mains,1 turkey lunch yorkshire pudding you could have brocken the plate with . ! lunch rumpsteak up graded to a serloin completely inedible sweet crumble not made yet had profitroles as a subsitute best part Staff excellent helpful and polite and did give me a full rebate on my disastrous meal

We have been going here for about 5 years now, The inside is nice, the staff are really nice too and the food is hot but we have had some problems recently where they don have everything because of delivery but still 4/5

We had a very enjoyable meal at The Globe yesterday. The pub was extremely busy but the service was good. We were greeted by our server and made to feel very comfortable and he was keen to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction.yes there were supply issues but we were made aware of these in advance so we’re able to adjust our orders. All the food was well presented and hot and tasty. The billionaire profiteroles were yummy. We will definitely be back again. Thank you to all the hard working staff.

The Globe was having issues with their suppliers and didn't have some foods, so choice was curtailed somewhat. The service was slow, it took 40mins for our first drink and we didn't get our food for 90mins after arrival. they came back to us several times to tell us things were now unavailable. This waiting time is unacceptable. Having said that, after I complained they did reduce our bill and the pizza and Brownie I had was quite nice. The staff were pleasant but disorganised and unprepared, for example we had advised them we were coming (group of 10) 4 days before and the table wasn't ready for us. We would not go back here after our experience last night.

Worst dining out experience I’ve had in a long time. Despite the place being quiet the service was very slow took a while to receive our drinks after asking one of the staff members if we could get our drinks. Food took nearly a hour to arrive which came out looking very very average and something I could have done better at home. Me and my friends came here expecting to have a festive Xmas dinner only to receive a list of what meals they ran out of which the menu was very poor and limited choice. The worst tasting food I’ve had in a long time. We was all very disappointed and hungry. I don’t recommend this place and won’t be returning!

I have been to this place about 5 times in total now, every time the food & service is absolutely brilliant. No matter the time of day, the staff who are working or the day of the week. My partner often comes for lunch with his boss and agrees that the food and service is amazing. Special shoutout to Harry ( i believe manager/shift runner) who has been there for all our visits. Also shoutout to Maddi and Tegan for there brilliant service.

Good honest, pub grub. It does get very busy, and the staff handle this very well. Big thanks to Maddi, who always has a big smile and gives great service and attention to detail.Thanks to James also for his warm welcome 😁

Burger was tasteless and there was about 10 chips the coleslaw was inedible and a. Strange colour it had to be the worse. Burger I have ever had

Went to Globe yesterday about 12 -14 of us.wasnt busy however whilst the staff managed best they could there had been issues re delivery ok something's not their fault . Overall food could have been hotter the salmon and turkey was nice but they only had one salmon available no condiments on table ,no water on table. 2 people had to leave couldn't get to dessets as it had taken so long to get to the main.

Despite no rice delivery to them, still had a fantastic katsu curry with chips.

Food was satisfactory. Veg wasn't cooked properly. Service was very slow, due to lack of staff but they did their best & kept on smiling.

Food cold. Brussel Sprouts inedible Service extremely slow. Dining room cold

Good quality food choices and friendly service and family atmosphere

Very enjoyable experience in this busy whitbread mid range pub. Standard pub fayre but very good consistently. We had steaks and dessert and very good value with a "black Friday offer". Steak and indeed most of the food offering is always good at Whitbread Inns. Haz a reasonable Gluten Free offering as well. This pub is tucked tight on the main road and could be missed if not looking for it. It's attached to Premier Inn, which is set back in a wooded area behind. Nice decor inside and very friendly and efficient service, shout out to Maddi to was very attentive whilst being very busy. Will definitely come again even though it's a bit of a way from home.

Delicious hot Sunday lunch here today!! Thought we’d try it out as we live near!! Was very yummy and filling!! a choice of meats turkey beef and gammon.. Veg roast too!! Festive veg Wellington is apparently lovely too!! In for Christmas!! Loads of veg, sausage on the plate too!! Good price! £11 for a roast. Drinks price good too!

Had the unlimited breakfast. Great value. Build your own breakfast by ordering how many you would like of bacon, eggs, sausages, etc. It also includes continental, tea, coffee, and fruit juice

Excellent pub fayre at great prices (especially with some of the offers). All four of us were impressed and left happy. Service (Maddi) was exceptional - if I were Whitbread I'd give her a serious promotion. Hard to find people these days who understand that if you look after your customers, they consume more and come back more often...well done Maddi!

Excellent value for money. Plenty of parking. Food was appetising and hot. Quick service. Especially liked the two meals for £11.99. An additional sweet was only £2.99 each as well. Great staff. Recommended.

Visited for breakfast with my wife and loved the fact that it wasn't a tepid, mediocre buffet affair, but a nice and hot meal, pre- ordered, as much as you like Lovely, hard working staff Will be returning Well done 👍

Maddi was an excellent server. Very good value meals which are delicious. We always enjoy our time at The Globe.

The service was excellent especially at breakfast. Lovely food, great atmosphere would definitely go again. Had breakfast and dinner

Food very good value for the price.The waitress Maddi was very polite and efficient.

Arrived without booking after travelling from the north Midlands. It was 2pm Sunday, and quite busy, but they were able to fit us in. Service was initially great, drinks arrived fairly quickly, but then we waited. And waited. And waited. Absolutely no communication for almost an hour before our 3 meals arrived. 1 Sunday lunch (minus Yorkshire pudding), 1 steak dinner, 1 mixed grill. Even cooking from scratch shouldn't be an hour, and service was reducing considerably over that hour. Fortunately, the food was fairly decent, and the young lad who cashed us out was really helpful with regards 'blue light' discount. Would come again, but would advise the server's offer better communication if there are delays. Goes a long way.

Excellent value for money great service from James and Maddi. Highly recommended.

The food was lovely, Maddi served us, she was excellent.

Maddi our waitress was fantastic will be coming back soon

Get there early on a Sunday if you want a choice of meat for a Sunday roast 😄

We visit at least once a year on holiday and it is always a great place to stay, with wonderful staff and food. One of us has an unusual combination of food allergies, and it is never a problem liaising with staff to find food from the menu to eat. The staff are so hardworking and helpful, on this visit we hadn't been for a long time, and yet they remembered straight away what the allergies were and helpfully liaised with the kitchen. Always a great experience.

Last orders for food 8pm and bar closed at 10pm ridiculous for a pub attached to a hotel

Well all I can say this was the worst food I have ever had before. When we arrived it was meant to be a surprise for a friend, however it was definitely that . The waitress on entry was dam right cold and not welcoming at all, an answer from the lady was in a minute. I stood there for a good 10 mins before some else asked if I was OK. My reply was table for two please, of course a table was found for us .Now the food , well McDonald's is bad but this beat it hands down no question. The starter was very well done especially when calamari should be soft to the bite, but not this looked like pork scratches. However we we hungry so thought it can't get worse, it did . But more to the fact I was speechless and embarrassed . If you want lovely food, not recommended or the price.

Lovely meal and good service . Food piping hot and came quickly. Very friendly Scotsman behind the bar who made us feel welcome

On the morning of our stay, I arrived for breakfast unaware that it was waitress, rather than self service. I was in a real rush to get to a meeting, so I was now tight on time and the breakfast room was packed!!! I spoke to Maddi and she managed to jump in early, to take my order and get it to me in just a few minutes! She then took time to find my coat, which I accidentally left in the bar the night before! All in time for me to get to my meeting! What a superhero !!! You saved me twice… with a quick breakfast and rescuing by coat! Your kindness was such a gift from God ! It so made me smile!!

Great value for money, lovely meal and atmosphere and fairly local. Had a very efficient, knowledgeable and friendly waitress named Maddi

Came in on Friday Night (4th Oct) Had to ask someone to seat us wven tho the restaurant and bar were quiet. Waited so long for our drinks I collected them from the bar my self. Food was ok thought the share platter starter was a bit rubbish to be honest. Had little to no contact with the female waitress that was supposed to serve us other than to take our order. A guy from another section did the rest. No meal check , drink check or even casual conversation. Asked for the bill and ended up going to the bar to get the bill and pay. Disappointing when the pub was so quiet and plenty of staff on.

We were made to feel so welcome the food was amazing and the service was 100%, very very friendly place to eat and drink would highly recommend thank you to all that looked after us.

Very friendly place, great food, reasonable prices, brilliant table service from the tireless Maddi. Pleasant bub area also, again with very friendly and helpful staff

You need to book for a weekend as very busy, food was good for a chain pub, staff very courteous.

Great atmosphere, very friendly staff, great food and value for money

We had a lovely meal on our first visit were welcomed by friendly staff on arrival and our waitress (Maddi) went above and beyond to make you feel welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommend and we will be back !

Nice place to go for a meal. Wide menu choice reasonable prices. Table booking advisable. Good sized car park but can get busy.

Great food,great service . Really enjoyed the visit..

A good place for meeting up with friends. Although it was a hot day we had a cool, pleasant table. A most enjoyable meal shared with friends.

Great choice of very tasty food with ample servings and very friendly attentive service ... plus always a bargain with specials

We had a meal yesterday. The food was good but not great but it was the wait time that spoiled it. The staff were pleasant but everything took too long and it wasn't very busy. We had to wait over 20 minutes for our drinks and were there nearly an hour before we got our food. I wouldn't recommend it if you are tight for time!

Come here often. Great for families and generally anyone looking for good food and good service. Maddi is lovely and provides great service

Maddi our waitress was lovely and the food was as good as ever. They were coping well on what was a very busy night

For a very good meal at a reasonable price and good service go to the Globe.

Good food and lovely friendly staff. Great local.

Excellent meals coupled with very good service.

Maddi was lovely she served us drinks at lunch time and dinner later. The food was fine nothing to complain about at all. Very busy atmosphere.

Great value food. Very tasty. Good service too from Maddi at both breakfast and dinner.

Imperative that you book, it's so good. Lovely food and plenty of it. Quick service, polite staff and great value. I had a smothered platter(excellent) and my wife had chicken katsu and rice. Both highly recommended. 👌

Order wasn't complete one meal had been crossed off so had to wait for meal to arrive

Enjoy our visits here on a Sunday for lunch. The roast dinners are honestly the best around here. My father is in a wheelchair and the access here is so easy as it’s all one level. A special mention for Faith Gabby James and Harry who always make a point of welcoming us so warmly, we have become regulars here now because of this excellent customer service.

Had Maddi as our server what a helpful and happy person she was nothing to much trouble

The experience was kind of what you would expect from a restaurant annexed to a Premier Inn. Simple. Nothing special. But it cured my hunger.

Very standard pub food but great service from Maddi!

I'm quite disappointed, to be honest. Quite a few of our chosen meals were not available after we ordered, having the waitress return to our table a couple of times asking to change our orders. Curry with hardly any curry! No spaghetti for the children. The waitress tried her best, and we appreciated it, but we wouldn't come here again for dinner.

Amazing value for money . Unlimited breakfast 😋 for 10 quid

Decidedly grubby & ripped chair - not as good as previous visits.

We were served by Maddi, who was absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have asked for better service. The food was good, as to be expected from a Whitbread Inn. Food prices are reasonable.

I’m sat here after just finishing the mix grill left feeling disappointed and robbed. 15 chips on the plate Steak tough as boots Gammon 25% fat Chicken tasted like rubber Sausages - should be described as cocktail sausages Peas no complaints the best part of the meal The size of the portion was so small I finished my plate within 5minutes. I usually struggle to finish a mixed grill. A couple of people on table ordered adult burger meals when they arrived at the table we assumed they were the kids meals This place used to be a lovely spot it has gone down hill. I can honestly say it is the worst dining experience of my life. Waiters were polite and helpful

Was not very busy when we arrived but waited ages to be served ,did not seem a lot of staff there orderd meal and a drink got meals we had gammon ,chips peas asked for vinegar and tomato sauce arrived about 10 min later still no drinks the meal was basic chips that had been cooked then warmed up peas like bullets I had to go and get drinks I had ordered they were still siting on the bar very poor quality food will not rush back.

A great location and layout with spacious beer garden. Maybe made the wrong choice on the menu but both Thai and Indian curries were insipid runny and lacking in body.Like the chips they were also fairly cold.

Family birthday party ten people large enough venue to accommodate. Good choice on the menu arrive before six pm for offers on the menu. Free parking.

Short on portion size. Sticky toffee pudding. Tasted awful not like its name sake. Served cold, told waitress exchanged for another cold portion. We spent £50 unfortunately not up to the cost.

Anniversary weekend away, came for a meal it was exceptional xxx

Ok but not much meat for a mixed grill and pudding selection not very good , but excellent friendly staff

Couple of drinks with family and amazing barman Jamie made the night 100% better. Will be coming back just so we can have him pour our drinks again.

Great food and service as usual will return for sure x

Easy to drive past but it's worth a little stop. Large car park with beer garden tucked away at the rear. Breakfast is probably the best meal to have here. Toilets are v pleasant.

Booked table at 645 waited for our drinks for the wrong ones, it's now 8 pm still waiting for food. Ask the staff but had a cheeky comment under hand. Won't be coming back until management sort more staff shocking service. Toilets are shocking, boys there is wee all over the floor been in twice still in the same state, windows open but people smoking outside smoke coming in, shocking!!!!!!! Your meant to be saving food which isn't cheap. Everyone stay away until it improves. Table behind us just had there food and it was wrong mum not happy. We sat with crumbs on our seats.

Cannot be beaten for overall value and service..yes its slower at weekends but they are busy.

Booked a table for.for 5 people at 1515 on Sunday , for a Sunday roast ,we arrived at 1400 ,had a couple of drinks in the garden, we went to order our roast at 1515, we were told they have run out of roast, we have been visiting the pub for 6 years regularly on a Sunday, couldn't believe it ,the man who said he was in charge said they have been busy from 1230 till 1430 ,when we arrived at 1400 I happened to say to my wife how quiet it was, if you can't rely on a Sunday dinner at your local, what can you rely on, on the plus side the young bar man jamie is a joy he's really friendly service with a smile, always happy and positive, if you want a meal there get in early, you've been warned

Sticky tables Wrong food delivered Slow service No one seemed to care

Lovely food and good service. We go there regularly and it is always nice.
