Scholars Bistro & Lounge

On The Freedom Trail, Scholars Offers Billiards, Classic Regional Fare, And More

Welcome to Scholars American Bistro & Cocktail Lounge! We are located in Downtown Crossing, along Boston's historic Freedom Trail. Our billiards lounge, containing four custom built 8-ft. tables, is open seven days a week. The kitchen at Scholars features cuisine inspired by regional classics but original in its execution.

The inclusion of some unconventional proteins such as rabbit, beef tongue, and pork belly offers something for the more adventurous patron, while comfort staples reference New England favorites. In addition to lunch and dinner, brunch is served on Saturdays, Sundays, and federal holiday Mondays from 11 am to 3 pm. The beverage program at Scholars features a sophisticated craft cocktail menu, an eclectic wine list, and an extensive beer selection. Come in and have a drink made with one of our house infused spirits, or try a local microbrew.
