If I worked in Moorgate then I wouldn't have a problem with The Telegraph as a close by lunchtime or early evening venue for a decent pint of Fullers. But as a pub to search out when visiting the City, I wouldn't bother. It's a fairly dull and characterless example of the Fullers Food & Ale establishments with a clean, but fairly boring standard modern décor interior. The positive is that its tucked away down an alley way off Moorgate and benefits from a large outside drinking area and on a warm evening like last Thursday, with the big windows open, then it's a decent place for an outside pint. But there are a lot better pubs in the area and a lot better examples of close by large Fullers establishments that are worth walking a bit further to, The Counting House in Bank and The Banker under the arches at Cannon Street to name two.

Closed and vandalised. Formerly The Springvale Tavern it was once the Tap for Lashford's Brewery which stood behind the pub before moving to Temple Street. [admin note: marked as closed 17/02/2010]
