Content Warning: Dark History 🚨

This Halloween, we want to share a chilling tale from The Brewery's past. Behind the elegant façade of 52 Chiswell Street lies a darker chapter in Whitbread's history. Once the world’s largest brewery, these historic walls witnessed three mysterious deaths:

In 1815, Samuel Whitbread II, tormented by the brewery’s troubles, was believed to have taken his own life by cutting his throat “from ear to ear.”

In 1834, John Martineau, the man who had saved the brewery from collapse through a crucial merger, was found dead in a yeast vat in the fermentation room. The jury’s cryptic verdict? “Died by the visitation of God.”

Then in 1866, William Ward, a brewery worker, was found lifeless at the bottom of a 27-foot vat filled with lethal carbonic acid gas. His name was scrawled in chalk on the beam above, leaving a haunting question: what drew him to the gas, and was there something darker awaiting him in the depths?

We’re not saying the venue is haunted, but if you hear strange noises after dark, perhaps it’s best not to investigate...

Did someone say bubbles?

Those tiny bubbles you see dancing in your glass—there are approximately 49 million of them in a single bottle of champagne! Each one carries aromatic flavours that contribute to the complex taste we know and love.

But beware - champagne packs a powerful punch! Regular wine bottles would explode under its pressure, and when opened, the cork can zoom out at an impressive 64 km/h!

Whether you’re toasting to success or adding sparkle to your event, this timeless elixir never fails to impress.

Happy 🥂

Did you know that until 1976, The Brewery housed the Speaker of the House of Commons' Coach?

Our venue was linked to over a century of parliamentary history, starting in the mid-19th century when Speaker Charles Shaw Lefevre, who married the daughter of Samuel Whitbread II, first used the shire horses to draw the coach. This ornate 17th century carriage, reserved for the most significant State occasions, weighs 2.75 tons and has no brakes! Today, this historic coach resides at the Museum of London.
