thumb_upReally interesting bar food. The way they have the space set up, they serve a variety of purposes, whether it's after dinner drinks, a more rowdy game experience, or dinner with friends.
- Natalie VanDusen
Great place to shoot pool.
Unbeknownst to most, Scholars has food, and it's very good!
The crowd tends to be younger (college-aged) on weekend nights (Th-Fri).
- Christopher Lettiere
One of my favorite downtown bars. I like that this bar has two levels with different atmospheres. The upstairs has a small bar and pool tables you can rent by the hour, if you just want to hang out. On the other hand, the main floor is a little more lively and has a decent dance floor with good music.
