Separated from the bustling A3 by the trees of Putney Heath, The Telegraph has a real country pub feel, and is popular with walkers, locals and music fans alike.

The regular jazz and blues nights, hosted by Brook's Blues Bar, are favourites in the area and attract players from the US, Canada and Europe, as well as UK musicians.

Add in a quiz, a pub grub menu and weekly film and cycling clubs, and you get the complete package. Definitely worth going out of your way for.
