Moorgate Pricing vs Old Street, Liverpool Street, and Cannon Street

‍

If you’re thinking about Moorgate office space, you might well be considering its neighbouring areas.

Cannon Street and Liverpool Street are relatively similar in pricing, coming in at around £780 and £750 per desk per month. Both sit within the heart of the City and offer access to major transport hubs, established financial institutions, and a wide choice of client meeting venues.

Old Street, however, sits at a noticeably lower price point. At around £550 per desk per month, it is approximately 31% cheaper than Moorgate, while still providing easy access to the City and one of London’s leading technology and startup ecosystems.

If cost is a priority, Old Street is the strongest alternative area to consider. It’s within walking distance of Moorgate, but offers a significantly lower entry point while keeping your team connected to Central London and the wider business network.

What’s Actually Included in Serviced Offices?

OK, so you’re set on a serviced office in Moorgate: how do you find the right one? The most useful thing you can do when comparing serviced office providers is to get a full list of what's in the monthly fee before you start negotiating. Here's the benchmark for the market.

‍

One useful rule of thumb: if a provider won't give you a full breakdown of what's included before you tour, that could be a red flag.  

How to Evaluate a Serviced Office in Moorgate

Five things to look at on every provider, in roughly this order of importance. We asked James, VP of Sales at Runway East, for the questions he thinks every buyer should be asking on tour — they're folded into each section below.

Before you walk in, open with the two questions that cut straight to the real economics:

• "What's included in the monthly fee, exactly?"
• "Are there any charges I wouldn't see on the headline price?"

If you don't get a clear, specific answer to both, that tells you most of what you need to know about the rest of the tour.

1. Location and Commute

The first test is simple: accessibility. Moorgate is one of the most well-connected parts of the City of London, sitting just a few minutes’ walk from Moorgate Station (Northern, Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines), with Liverpool Street Station (Central, Circle, Hammersmith & City, Metropolitan and Elizabeth line services) and Bank Station (Central, Northern, Waterloo & City lines plus DLR connections) also within easy reach. That level of access makes commuting simpler for teams coming from different parts of London, as well as those travelling in from outside the city.

On-site showers and bike storage are increasingly standard; this matters if any of your team cycle in. When evaluating any provider, check both the walk time to the nearest station and the security of the cycle storage.

What to ask on tour:

1. "How many minutes does it take to get to X station?"
2. "How secure is the bike storage, and how accessible is it?" (Also request to see it.)
3. "Is this site fully accessible? Does it have wheelchair access points?"

These accessibility considerations matter regardless of your current team's needs — they ensure a welcoming environment for any future clients or guests with diverse mobility requirements.

2. Internet

Reliable internet is the foundation of a great workspace. Many serviced office providers favour high-capacity shared networks, offering a balance of security, speed, and simplicity. This setup gives your team a consistent, high-speed experience without the hassle of managing a dedicated line – but the details vary wildly between providers, so it's worth digging in.

What to ask on tour:

1. "What's the actual internet speed, and is it dedicated or shared?"
2. "Can you confirm our devices will operate on a secure, Private VLAN?"

3. Meeting Rooms

Meeting room scarcity is the most common complaint in serviced offices. Not the rent, not the coffee – access to rooms. Some providers keep the headline price low and quietly ration meeting space with tight credits or add-on fees. A beautiful boardroom is useless if it's booked solid for three weeks.

What to ask on tour:

1. "How many meeting rooms are there, and what sizes?"
2. "What's the meeting room to desk ratio here?"
3. "Do you have a meeting room credit system? If so, how many would a team of my size get per month?"
4. "How do I book, and what is the per-hour cost once credits run out?"

4. The Culture Test

This is the one thing you can't assess from a web page. On your tour, pay attention to whether the kitchen is clean, whether the meeting rooms are in use or sitting empty, and whether people look like they actually want to be there. Are the site teams attentive and friendly?

The best spaces tend to feel like a grown-up version of a university common room — good, warm energy. Dog-friendly offices are a useful proxy for culture: spaces that allow dogs tend to attract members who actually want to be in the office.

What to ask on tour:

1. "What other companies are currently in the building?"
2. "Is this a pet-friendly space?"
3. "How often are there socials and networking events, and how well attended are they?"

5. Flexibility and Exit Terms

Team sizes constantly fluctuate; a 10-person team today might be 20 next year or 60 the year after. The whole point of a serviced office is not being locked into a three-year bet on your headcount. This is also the section to test move-in speed and the scope for making the space feel like yours.

What to ask on tour:

1. "What is the minimum term length and what is the notice period?"
2. "Can I flex up within my term if the team grows?"
3. "What happens if we outgrow the office mid-contract?"
4. "When is the earliest we could move in?"
5. "Can I customise the space — feature walls, branding, signage?"

Red flags to watch for in any provider: minimum terms longer than 12 months, and vague answers about scaling up.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a serviced office in Moorgate cost?

In Moorgate, you’re looking at a benchmark of £800+VAT per desk per month, with some providers charging more depending on building quality and team size. While many monthly fees are "all-inclusive," coverage varies by provider. Before signing a contract, check whether the following are included:

• Standard Essentials: Basic furniture, high-speed internet, and utilities.
• Building Costs: Business rates and cleaning.
• Variable Perks: Meeting room credits and communal amenities.

The bottom line is that not every provider follows the same billing model. Always request a full breakdown of inclusions to avoid unexpected costs.

What's the difference between serviced and managed offices?

A serviced office is a ready-to-use private space within a larger building, with everything included, flexible contracts, and the option to move in within days. A managed office means taking an office, a whole floor or a building and fitting it out to your exact specification. Managed offices give you more control but involve longer commitments and more setup time. For teams of 4–50, serviced offices are typically the better fit. For teams of 50+, managed starts to make more financial sense.

What's the minimum contract length?

As a general rule, serviced office contracts are significantly shorter than traditional leases, which are typically 3–5 years. Usually 12 months, but it’s not unusual to commit to between 12–36 months to secure guaranteed pricing into the future, or to have 1–3-month rolling contracts where flexibility is key. 

Can I scale up as my team grows?

Yes, flexibility is the main reason teams choose serviced offices over traditional leases. Confirm the specific conditions for sizing up with the provider before signing.

How quickly can I move in?

Many serviced office providers can complete onboarding in as little as 48 hours. The space will be fully set up, furniture in place, internet live, and a welcome tour arranged.

‍Are serviced offices good for startups?

Yes, with one honest caveat: you'll pay more per square foot than you would on a traditional lease. The trade-off is everything else: no fit-out costs, no long commitment, no building management admin, and the ability to scale without renegotiating a lease. For early-stage and Series A teams, the flexibility usually outweighs the per-sq ft premium, and you typically pay the same or less than you would on a lease.
