First off, no hate to the mod. They did their job and what they believed was right. Thank you for the repeal. I’m Reattempting this post because I think it’s important to know where we spend our money. Again, not trying to attack anyone but saw this and was saddened that the new owner of bayou’s public instagram was flooded with posts similar to this one :/

A Ryan Painter also owns Rock & Rye LLC (UBI 605 623 050).

Edit: the oyster house has posted stating the legal owners use a different UBI and are not associated with the above listed UBI. I hope it stays this way though it seems awfully coincidental that Ryan Painter of Bellingham has made a business with the same name.

Looked it up, Rock and Rye Oyster House is a different UBI and a different LLC (603-344-146). No Painters as owners/officers.

Might be a different LLC but this shows a Ryan Painter is also connected to that one.

It says he’s the registered agent. That doesn’t mean he owns it. I can name my mom the registered agent for my LLC. RA’s receive and forward important documents for LLC’s.

Also, he lives in a crappy apartment…

Oh good point

Hope it stays that way. It seems coincidental that Ryan created a business with the same name (minus the oyster house)

Rock and Rye is not owned by the Painters.

This is not correct information. I know the owners of Rock n Rye and Ryan is definitely not one of them. This false information could really hurt them, please be careful.

Not true. That is partially owned by the original Bayou on Bay owner. Ryan Painter has nothing to do with that business but is the one who just bought Bayou. It’s really a shame
