Here’s the beer garden area. It’s awesome because you bring your dog and hang out… love it so much! There are plenty of picnic tables outside, half of which are under a covered area.

But the star of the show is Telegraph’s Beer Brat sandwich. OMG. This thing is freaking amazing. I have to admit, I usually don’t go for sausage on the menu, but the first time I went to Telegraph it just sounded good, so I ordered it… and I’m so glad I did!

Here it is… they serve it on tray with kettle chips. I appreciate how they cut the sausage in half so that it is flatter in the bun. It also includes coleslaw (the tangy kind, not creamed).  I love this sandwich because the sausage has just enough of a spicy bite, it’s a little more on the sweet/hot side than the smokey kind. The bread is soft and light, not dense and overwhelming like some sandwich breads can be.  The slaw is tangy and compliments the sausage perfectly!

Have you noticed all of the trendy chicken + coleslaw sandwiches popping up everywhere?  Well this sausage + coleslaw freaking sandwich puts them all to shame.  There, I said it.  Eat this one instead. You won’t be sorry.

Oh, I forgot to mention, Telegraph also has frozen cider slushies. I’m serious… and they’re really good, especially on super hot Oakland days!  Here’s a photo of the slushie I took with my iPhone…

 I’ve been to a few beer gardens in the East Bay, and I have to say… I love Telegraph. It’s the perfect place to hang out – it’s casual and low-key, affordable and the food is great.

Unfortunately I’m the kind of person who orders the same thing all the time, but I’m really excited to try something new next time I go to Telegraph!
