Chelsea FC Events Hospitality

Chelsea’s rise to prominence

It may seem that Chelsea FC has been dominant forever but their history began in 1904.

Gus Mears acquired the Stamford Bridge Athletics Stadium and the following year the Chelsea FC team started to compete.

The 10th March 1905 was a momentous day in Chelsea’s history. At the Rising Sun Pub, now called the Butcher’s Hook, opposite the Fulham Road gates, this iconic club’s first team was created. A short time later they were accepted in to the Football League.

There was already a Fulham team so although the stadium is in Fulham they opted for Chelsea FC in preference to alternatives including Kensington FC and London FC.

Stalwarts of the first and second divisions, they were the runners up in the FA Cup Final in 1915.

In the 1950’s, the former Arsenal and England player, Ted Drake, became Chelsea’s manager and modernised its practices and made some big-name signings. He led the team to their first League Championship victory in the 1954-55 season.

Premier League hospitality

It’s in honour of this success that the 55 Restaurant in the Stamford Bridge complex has its name.  An adjoining bar and lounge offer impressive surroundings to await a match and to relive it.

Situated within the Millennium and Copthorne Hotels at Chelsea FC, the restaurant has enjoyed a stylish and Chelsea themed multi-million pound refurbishment. It couldn’t be more convenient to savour the 55 Restaurant packages. The Copthorne Hotel is located by the South Stand at Stamford Bridge.
