The pubs group Fuller, Smith & Turner has hailed a rebound in activity at City bars, saying workers in the Square Mile are making the most of afterwork drinks during the warm weather and “enjoying being back” in the office.

The fillip in trade came after tube and train strikes cost Fuller’s more than £5m of sales, the company said as it released full-year results.
