The Ten Bells — Restaurant in London

The Ten Bells Public House. Whitechapel, London. The haunt of Jack the Ripper. One of the most haunted Public Houses in London !!.. Has hardly changed since the 1800s, The Ten Bells on the corner of Commercial street and Fournier Street first opened in 1752. Whilst much of its surroundings are barely recognisable !!.. Famous for its connections with # jack the ripper . Since the early 1990s, a Victorian dressed man has been seen appearing and disappearing, even to this day. The ghost of Annie Chapman is known to haunt the building. Annie was a regular drinker back in those days. Marry Kelly alledgedly used the pub to pick up her clients. Jack the rippers so named Canonical five, the ladies the police believed he was responsible for killing and mutilating, all died close bye. Many simular killings and stabbings, whilst today would have been on the list of suspected and related by injury type, were just left and for some reason kept out of all enquiries most of these fitted the M.O. perfectly, by area and date. When we talk about the * Canonical five * This is the famous five killings carried out. 1st, Mary Nichols, Bucks Row Aug 31st 1888 2nd, Annie Chapman, Sept 8th 1888 3rd, Elizabeth Stride, Sept 30th 1888 4th, Catherine Eddows, Sept 30th 1888 5th, Marry Kelly, 9th November 1888. This mystery continues. Gusts of wind out of the blue are reported. On my visit, both times I visited the toilet, a gust of wind felt as if it was pushing me down the stairs. There is not a draft in the area at all, the push ?, hmm. This is a special place to visit. It can get very busy. Across the road from Spitalfields market and Christ Church Spitalfields. Both very famous places. A fantastic historical building. The Alleyways take you back in time. I know I have said this before, but this is such an experience and being in a Public House older than many Countries is a must do !!.. Why not visit the Jack the Ripper Museum at, 12 Cable St, Aldgate,...

Last night my friend and I, after a dinner in a lovely Asian restaurant in Brick Lane, as you do, we decided to have our last drink at the famous The Ten Bells. Was busy, good atmosphere. After we finished drink a bottle of prosseco, which wasn’t as cold as we expected, but we enjoy it anyway, we decided to pop upstairs where there were cocktails available to purchase. We thought to have the last drink of the night and finish on high spirit. Before going upstairs, we decided to go to the loo, but seeing how the stairs were so old, probably full of history, we took some pictures while we were there. All of sudden a girl came from upstairs, telling us off, to get out of her way. We just laughed and finished taking the pictures anyway. However, when we reached the cocktail bar, the same girl were behind the bar, flipping her fingers onto her phone, looking miserable, like she hate her job. Meanwhile, her colleague, a nice young man, served us, very polite, made us feel so welcome. When I asked him who was she, he told that she, Megan her name, was the supervisor, which made me feel shocked. How come a supervisor could look miserable like that, let alone rude with customers? Many people goes to The Ten Bells to have the experience to drink in a pub where by the history, was where Jack the Ripper could maybe being in 1888. I really hope that the management explain to her that customers are not always right but at least treat them well and with more enthusiasm. By the way, the cocktail...

Great pub! It has historical significance being the pub at least two, possibly all, of the victims of Jack the Ripper were patrons at this establishment. The interior is really beautiful. They have a second floor and have a weekly quiz night. They have an outdoor area with tables and shelves so you can hang out outdoors and have a cigarette or vape. The staff were extremely friendly here. It is very clean and has a really great vibe. The restrooms, which are downstairs, are clean and some of the fixtures look like they are from days of old. Be careful on the stairs as they are narrow and go down in a spiral. There is a handrail to hang on to should you need it. They have a bank of phone chargers downstairs on the level of the restrooms that you can rent for £1.99 for 10 minutes if the battery on your phone needs a boost. They did have some brands of beverage out of stock, but that could be down to popularity; but that's okay because it offers the chance to try something different that you may not have tried before. The blackberry cider and ginger beer were really delicious and hit the spot. We went in the early afternoon which afforded feeat opportunities to take photos. The staff is okay with taking as many pictures as you like. The pub starts to fill up around 4:30. I highly recommend stopping in for a pint (or two!) if you find yourself in the East...
