   Ryans is bar none(no pun) my favorite establishment for food and spirits in Chester County. Between the three separate areas in house, there is a place for all, young and old. Cant say Ive ever had a unpleasurable experience here thanks to the amazing staff that Pat Ryan employs. Keep up the good work and I will see you soon, you can count on it.

   I won’t disagree with previous comment about “drunken animals”, but then again, I wouldn’t go to Ryan’s for dinner. On weekends it’s mainly a college hangout. Nor would I ask for 6 separate checks if I did eat there with five friends. Did you leave separate tips also?

   Been there a few times and have had pretty good experiences for the most part. Nachos are amazing and so are the chicken quesadillas for all quesadilla fanatics.
   The upstairs is a lot nicer – you don’t have to deal with all the drunken animals at the bar. Not pleasant having to walk through them to get out though…
   Service was good too. I went with 5 of my girlfriends and our waitress was willing to give us all separate checks. That can be a very tedious task and most waitresses would give you a hard time.
   Whenever we’re looking for a consistent place to go eat we know it can be here. =)

   There needs to be a separate category for “bar” on the site. Ryan’s is a bar, not an Irish restaurant. That said, it’s a good bar that doesn’t pretend to be anything but.

   I’ve been to Ryan’s Pub several times. As a fan of the classic Italian style pork sandwhich (best in area is at DiCic’s at Reading Terminal), I thought I’d give Ryan’s Pub a shot on Friday night. Thoughts and comments:

   - I’m not sure if there was some kind of beer special – or maybe it was because the Eagles were playing, but as my younger guest commented, “This place is a sausage factory”. I prefer the old school term “Dude Ranch”.
   - We both order the pork sandwich. The staff was very friendly and sevice was quick.
   - It’s hard to compare a pork sandwhich to DiNic’s, but I have to say it was better than OK. I was surprised the spinach topping was not an option AND it could have been a bit more juicier. The fries were terrible.

   I respectfully, based on the pork sandwhich only, will give this establishment 6.7 “THAT BLUE YAK” stars out of 10.

   Ryan’s has the best slow roasted prime rib………..a delicious flavor and it melts in your mouth! For the price you can’t go wrong !!Try it ! I have friends who come from the Main Line to Ryan’s for the prime rib and “fish of the day”. They love it.

   The burgers are great here – flavorful cooked to order – mmmmm- and the seafood bisque was delish. Our server Lindsey was right on top of everything in a nice friendly manner.
