Hester and Hilligas Buy Ryleigh?s
Robert Hester and Sarah Hilligas bought Ryleigh’s Sports & More on July 1 from Ronnie Wheat and Robbie Dunnahoe. The bar, which specializes in daiquiris, opened in April 2000 in The Bakery Building on Fayetteville’s Dickson Street.
Hilligas said the couple may change the décor, add some coffee-flavored daiquiris and shorten the name to just Ryleigh’s, but otherwise the bar will stay the same.
Hester previously managed You Know? Uno! in Fayetteville and the Springdale Country Club restaurant. Hester and Hilligas also own a Conoco service station and store in Fayetteville.
