Ryans Bar

A very cold and un inviting atmosphere. The bar staff didn't even bother standing up to take our drinks order. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Dirty. Smelt bad. Beer was rubbish. The place wants a refurbishment. Was loud and had 10 people in and they were all very drunk. The tables looked like they done been cleaned for months. The seats were all ripped. Very disappointed. Will not go in again.

The new land lady and the bar staff are amazing, so lovely, always make us welcomed, the pub is alway clean

Beckie the new land lady is amazing,lovely so nice am so lucky to have her as my boss

Visited here to see where the great music had been coming from every time I walked by. First thing I noticed was how clean it was. Great management, affordable pool, very nice atomsphere!

Great little town pub, lovely staff and good beer too! Music nights are worth looking at, and has an open mic night every week as well. Prices better than many city-centre pubs.

I can confirm all the positives that have so far been posted to be true. Cheesey vegan lasagne better than the real cheese version, I don't know how! They need to start doing pizzas! The Chips are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The food is all freshly prepared, just like you'd do it at home, which for me, is important. No microwave meals here.
Try not to be too deterred by the appearance of the building and some of the clientele, the food I ate was high end stuff. Ambience is relaxed and friendly, with staff eager to please. Definitely recommended. I would encourage all, but vegans especially, take a look at the menu I ordered from. Two meals for £10.95 has to be worth a try while in Derby.
