Frying pan-restaurant incredible!!
I've no idea when I'll make it down to London (hopefully towards the end of this year), but a curry in the Frying Pan after a wander round the Whitechapel pubs it is!
I will be sure to post pictures when it happens!!

I will likely be entirely focused on throwing as many cold beers / G&T's down my neck as possible.
I suspect pics of this won't be pretty!!!!
But yeah, I will indeed have fun and be safe.
Hope you have a good one too whenever you finally get out and about!!

All these buildings are still standing and importance regarding the case! Been 3 years since I visited the east end life moves fast in London sure there are many more pubs still standing these are off top of my head hope it helps

I can't remember. Does the Ten Bells play up its Ripper heritage or discourage it?

That's brilliant!
Many thanks for that, Christian!
Am I correct in thinking that the White Hart on Whitechapel Rd is the one which George Chapman managed?
I'm thinking a couple of drinks in the Ten Bells, onto the White Hart then follow up with a curry in the old Frying Pan......!!!
Have you ever eaten in there?
If so, is it any good?Last edited by clark2710; 04-26-2021, 07:02 PM.

If I recall correctly the Ten Bells was previously called the Jack The Ripper to cash in on it's history.
It received a lot of negative publicity as this was rather exploitative and in poor taste.
It's my understanding that the name was eventually changed back to the Ten Bells, and I'm sure that I read on a thread somewhere on here that the staff are now reluctant to encourage the Ripper connection.
