Brown Bear, Historic pub with Grade II listing in Whitechapel, England.

The Brown Bear features a polished brass exterior and a horseshoe-shaped bar counter at 139 Leman Street in London's East End district.

The establishment operated before 1793 and underwent reconstruction in 1830, with records showing different addresses between 89 and 77 Leman Street from 1839 to 1871.

The Brown Bear functioned as a meeting place for a Masonic lodge that received its constitution on February 18th, 1754.

The pub stands within walking distance of multiple transport connections, including Aldgate East, Tower Gateway, and Fenchurch Street stations.

In 1911, the pub management included Jacob Schaumloeffel and his family, who maintained residence within the establishment during their tenure.
