Last December, after over 30 years, Ryan's Bar closed its doors for good in Stoke Newington. But very soon the space is going to be relaunched as a brand new pub, The Mary Wollstonecraft (who, of course, has a fairly memorable sculpture in nearby Newington Green).
The pub is coming from Nick Bailey, who opened The Robin Ale & Cider House in Stroud Green back in 2023. An independent pub with a big focus on real ale, one of the main aims of the pub was to be a proper neighbourhood pub, and we're assuming that's just what's being planned with his latest opening.
To date, we don't know much about what's Nick has in store for the new pub, but if it's along the lines of The Robin, there should be beers by independent breweries and classic pub snacks, including sausage rolls and pork pies. There's also a big garden out the back, so getting the pub opened for summer is going to be a bonus.
We'll update this piece as soon as we know more.
