Ryan's Public House — Restaurant in Lyons Township

2nd time I've been in. Bartender, Nadia, was very professional, helpful and courteous in terms of suggesting drink and foods choices and keeping up on customer service.

My good friend and I were both pleased with the sandwich choices we ordered. Moscow Mule that she made was delicious and well worth it. On tap beer choices were good as well as bottled selection of craft beers. Awesome selection of hard alcohol as well!

Food menu offers more than just a few choices, but not overwhelming and definitely not the "basic bar menu" choices. Quality and better than the norm.

Lovely staff that treat you as family. Lots of choices for such a cozy tavern on the corner.

Event offerings throughout the months/seasons. Gaming is available in the back room. Televisions for sports and regular programming...

You don’t stumble into Ryan’s by accident. You find it because you’re looking for something real, something with grit under its fingernails and a soundtrack that still believes in distortion and defiance.

These are the places you seek when you’re tired of curated cool and craving something with a pulse. Ryan’s doesn’t just serve—it welcomes. And if you...

I've gone here with friends several times, and we've always enjoyed it. Sadly, I currently live much too far away to make it worth the drive, but I have fond memories of Ryan's. A favorite table, a Red's apple, and a few games of darts.

If you're looking for a big, noisy place, packed with strangers, pool tables, a huge bar, and nowhere to sit, Ryan's isn't for you. If you're looking for a slightly quieter - but certainly not dead - spot with seats inside and out, a bar with a nice but not overwhelming selection, and friendly people, then I'd suggest coming here. (Bonus points during hockey season if you're a 'Hawks fan, as the game will certainly be on.) You'll feel just as welcome there if it's your first time as you would as a regular. I definitely recommend...
