In May 1999, we opened our second McGlynns in the bustling Peoples Plaza shopping center in Bear, Delaware, at the corner of Routes 40 and 896. Our third location has quite a different look as it sits on the shoreline of beautiful Silver Lake. Opened in 2006, it offers memorabilia from a trip to Ireland and peaceful views of the lake. The Greenville location, in Barley Mill Plaza opened in 2023 featuring a large outside bar and dining area. All four locations offer the same great menu and friendly atmosphere. In 2016, the second generation took over the reins as son, Marc Ashby, and longtime Operations Manager, Jeremy Hughes, took ownership of Ashby Hospitality Group. As co-owners, they each bring their experience and dedication to the same ideals that have made our restaurants so popular. We remain committed to our loyal customers in serving local fresh foods with excellent and friendly customer service.
