Groton Business Ryan’s Pub Needs Your Support

The new coronavirus has changed life for all of us. Local businesses have taken a huge economic hit, but communities are finding creative ways to support the establishments they know and love.

In an effort to help local businesses in our communities stay connected and succeed, Patch will shine a light on some of them through a series of Q&A articles during this time.

Ryan's Pub is one of the businesses in town facing struggles during the coronavirus. You can lend your support by reading more about the company, below, and by contacting them here.

Tell us about your business and its history in your town.

The family-run and veteran-owned establishment is a local pub serving pub fare. It has been under current ownership since 2011. Raymond Ryan and his father Hubba Ryan renovated the old Sully’s Bar and renamed it Ryan’s Pub. The food is exceptional at a reasonable price. Raymond was active duty Air Force for four years prior to returning to Groton to open the pub. He has served in the CT Air National Guard since 2011.
