The Thirsty Scholar Bar & Grille

Editorial Review

Traditional Boston Irish pub with big retractable windows upfront airing out smell of fried food and spilled beer within. Stacked tv screens make it a crowded spot for big games. Locals, townies, and pint-swilling dudes in baseball caps mix with Irish regulars and a smattering of Somerville indie kids. Brunch and trivia nights and jukebox are popular attractions.
