Royal Telegraph in Derby

Very friendly pub. When i went in on a normal boring Wednesday, found they were having a spontaneous karaoke. Good fun.

Nipped in today for a drink after a meal for friends birthday meal the saff was lovely met the landlady she's definitely going to make something of this place

Popped in for a drink tonight for my birthday and the land lady gave us a free shot which I thought was lovely. The pub was decorated really good for Halloween. Good selection of drinks. Overall really nice experience and I wish the new managers well

Not very good choice of beers had to take two back quality a bit poor

Love the food lovely service 😋 tammy and Chris are very nice friendly peple

Thanks to all the staff for making our weekend. Grenadier Guards

We really enjoy coming in. Though it’s a short visit. The staff are always really friendly and polite. Drinks are a good standard. Will definitely be coming again.

Lovely place, I come regularly and it's never failed. Last trip here was made memorable by Carrie, Lovely girl. I'll be back

Amazing food great barstaff and very welcoming

Visited here today on a recent trip to derby, what a great pub with very attentive staff, they went above and beyond to make sure our food was good and we were happy with the service. It’s refreshing to see passionate people trying their best to bring back that traditional home from home pub feeling! Can’t wait to see what changes are made by the new management when I return in January great job guys

this is my local pub drink pffen new landlady doing fantastic job and turn the place around the staff are helpful they moved the pool table down the bottom the have a carpark a the back which you can redeem towards food and drink

A lovely maintained clean pub .. Had a lovely meal at really good value .. Very friendly staff .. Had a really nice time everyone was very welcoming .. decent parking and you get your car park money redeemed off your food and drinks.. Highly recommended 100% will definitely be returning ..

Stumbled across this place after a days shopping, lovely and clean, fantastic staff, great outside area for relaxing of an evening with a cider or a bottle of wine, pool table looks better where it has been moved too, they have a disco/karaoke on a Friday night, not to be missed

This place is defo somewhere worth visiting! I was dubious about coming to the telegraph as its previously been somewhere I've walked past and seems like a old mans pub, but I was stopped on the street by the landlady as she was cleaning leafs, we had a conversation and she invited me in to the pub for a drink, well what can I say that was at 2 in the afternoon...... I left at close! What a brilliant time I had the landlady and her partner are great fun and also very kind, they became great people for me to share some of my troubles with and that goes a massive way! The pubs lovely the drink was great and even the chips I had were nice! It's goingto be my regular from now on!

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit to the Royal Telegraph. A sizeable, traditional pub that serves a good range of beers and wines with a wide selection of pub classics on the food menu. Ended up with a huge burger and chips. Not enough room for a couple of Guinness and a plate full of food to be honest. Not a regular visitor to Derby but we'll be back. Thankyou.

Under new management! And what an amazing job she is doing turning this pub around can’t wait to see great plans she’s putting in to place!

Great atmosphere, lovely staff and an all round nice visit. Very welcoming and not awkward being a new visitor.

Great time with friends. Enjoyed every second of their hospitality. Clean place and friendly environment.

Really friendly atmosphere bar staff and manger cannot do enough felt really welcome

Although this pub was open until 12 pm, we were refused service at 1140 pm despite being in the pub since 10 pm. It seemed the barkeep just wanted to go home early despite the pub being 90% empty. It does not make great business sense and spoiled our evening. We will not be returning or recommending this place. Bye!

I always have a great time here, food is great, beer taste nice and cold , staff are amazing and do their best to keep there customers happy. Loads of different beers, ales and great cocktails for the summer. Also a nice beer garden in the back.

Great community pub with Sky sports, city centre parking (pay and display but cheap), good staff, friendly, entertainment and nice food.

Not happy with the car park!! Disabled parking a long way from the pay machine!! Manager very helpful Food ok

Car park not free ,I received a £70 ticket on Friday after I had stopped at the pub for dinner,thinking the carparking was free I displayed my disabled badge and was only there for 30 minutes.

Went in there last night.l was not happy with the coffee it was off.so l asked for a anyone and that was off too .and look on the bar my god how many glasses needed washing the new owners have no idea what there are doing in there

Great service from both bar staff Wendy and kitchen staff Barry! First time visiting and won't be the last.

There is no sauce for the fish on the menu

Always come here when on a over night stay. Staff are always nice and friendly. The food is always amazing too 😋😋

Waited over an hour, Not all that busy, I had Mixed grill, Mash was bland, meat undercooked, Fully expected to be ill, Wasn't fortunately, Very poor but good portions, Disappointing overall 😥

Always pop into here when we stay in Derby. Lovely locals pub, definitely worth a visit

Brilliant boozer great staff always made to feel welcome and good food aswell.

Nice place but pedigree was a bit flat

Under new management .Good customer service and excellent atmosphere. And great beers and good choice of food on the menu .also good offers on cocktails outside seating area

called in on Saturday was pleasantly surprised nice atmosphere friendly staff will be calling in again soon.

Very nice place for a 1-2 beers and small talk with friends.

Great for food. Good service and price. Been twice now, quiet on both occasions which was good. As it's central for Derby I suppose it could get busy. Will return.

Great staff nice food could do with a upgrade but I was very happy with my visit will call again

Not the same pub like it used to be cut the pool table out and replaced it with machines

Just popped in for a quick drink as staying nearby. Pleasant staff, had a nice selection of drinks. Busy but not too much so, nice atmosphere and decor.

Dropped in for a quick drink after work got served straight away (due to the time of day)

Excellent local pub with food and dj’s on Plays loads of sport and is a home pub for derby county football matches Great for families Has small pay and display carpark behind it

Had a steak and kidney pie here for supper. There is no table service. You go to the bar to order and pay for your food. The staff were pleasant.

First time i went in just for a drink and i got a good service

A welcome (solo) return visit to Derby after 2 years away. Amazing vibe in the Royal Telegraph; friendly staff, perfectly kept Pedegree beer and the best Scampi I have had for ages. Won't be two years before I return...

Awesome pub , with great staff , very helpful and competent

I like the place environment and staff gona recommend to everyone

Nice location and great ambience indoor, surprisingly not noisy for a city center location and a weekend. Shows football matches

Nice place for a beer and fish n chips!

Was good staff friendly will deffo go again

Little bit pricey for the area, tool a while to get served too. Decent selection of ales abd a 15 minute walk from the train station

Visited with two friends and had lunch. Similar food to that served at wetherspoons but more expensive. Acceptable but nothing special. Good atmosphere and not too busy.

Popped in for some lunch the other day, decent burger and friendly staff-will be back!

Visited for lunch, food was lovely and the staff were very friendly.

Good pub. Friendly staff. Marston's Pedigree. Class

Good atmosphere friendly staff food was overpriced for taste had a burger and it tasted like a birdseye burger.

Lovely food and had a warm welcome and a great night x

Visited this pub while spending a night in Derby looked a bit rough on the outside but a fantastic pub on the inside friendly staff good choice of beers also had a meal which was really well cooked will definitely visit again when in Derby

Good english pub (football, beer and friends).

Always out of veg...poor standard...but good refund service

We visited for drinks on a Sunday evening and it was very quiet but it was clean and service was quick. They have 3 slot machines, a pool table and beer garden and serve food.

amazin and helpful staff I had the lucky encounter of dealing with Aaron who was just amazing !

Good pub really handy car park and refund token to use in pub to reclaim parking charge

Nice bar, good atmosphere, everyone was friendly.

Popped in for something to eat food was good and warm too.

Decent sports pub and reasonably priced food - it's a Marston's

Friendly folks and a nice little beer garden. A little bit pricier than some places. We went there on match day and there were plenty of Derby County supporters. Would have got the extra star if it had a little more shade in the beer garden and if the prices were a little lower.

Only played pool match there. Changed a lot, nice crowd

Prices ott bit drab inside, good staff ok for a quick drink and snack

I really enjoy coming to the Telegraph because there is a great atmosphere and the beer is always great

Popped in for a couple of drinks after the cinema. Very friendly and welcoming.

Really friendly, quick service and lovely place, our first visit to derby in over 10 years, nice to see all the changes, the outside is fabulous and the pods were very welcome on the hottest day of the year ! Staff were great, thank you, will see you again soon !

Nice clean pub..decent outside space 😀

Good pub beer garden at rear . Food looks lovely.

Amazing place absolutely mouthwatering food and amazing offers on drinks would recommend to all ages cracking pub

Nice spot, the staff were lovely.

Ive never been to this place before i went in the afternoon it was nice and quiet food was hot and tasted very nice the menu was what you would expected from a pub. The staff were very polite and helpful . This public house is situated slap bang in the city centre definitely worth a try well done guys

Very nice relaxing place nice staff

A really nice clean pub. Went to see a band called Strange Days, just a shame there wasn't more in.

Awesome staff and really good choice of beers. I highly recommend a visit especially if you fancy a meal.

Lovely pub, close to local transport routes. Great staff and great atmosphere

Very Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere. My first night out in Derby, chose the Royal Telegraph by sheer luck and I am more than happy I did. Thank you.

Great pub with a great atmosphere

Came in for a pint and something to eat glad I waited to eat. Another customer ordered food and the young lady that cooked it had no ppe on like no apron on no hair net had long hair you cannot just bypast health hygiene requirements. But food did look nice.

Great pub with a relaxed vibe! Reasonably priced drinks and food, lively atmosphere and the staff were great... All over 5 star experience!
