The Globe in Red Lion Square has been redecorated and reopened on 1st November 2024. A former Shepherd Neame Pub, the Globe Inn dates back to the late 1600s and one of the oldest surviving buildings in the town. The interior is decorated in an eclectic contemporary style, and is very much a pub for sports and music fans. A sheltered smoking area is available at the rear of the pub together with a patio area which is a sun trap on suitable days.
