Eh, what can I say about The Globe. It's ok. They generally have a few good beers on tap. I rarely go here for a few reasons.
1) The prices are generally high for what you get.
2) I've never really had anything better than "acceptable" service here.
3) There's no one here who is passionate about the beer they bring in.
4) I've never really been impressed with the food.

There are several good beers to be had here for sure, but they never go out of their way to have anything truly unique or extraordinary. The best thing you'll typically find here will be something from Brasserie d'Achouffe or Chimay - certainly not bad by any means, just not mind-blowing - especially when you pay $9 for a 8-10oz pour of LaChouffe.

The atmosphere here is kind of cool - very similar to the Brick Store (with the horseshoe bar and the upstairs area).

Overall, Aromas generally has this place beaten all around. I've often said that the Brick Store is what this place is supposed to be. A general lack of "wow factor" coupled with high prices keep me from coming here more than once or twice a year.
