Scholars Lounge is one of Rome’s best-known Irish pubs, combining long daily opening hours, a central Via del Plebiscito location, and a broad entertainment-led pub format. The official site confirms the address, contact details, and hours, while its venue history page documents the pub’s 2005 opening, major sports-screen offering, and Irish Whiskey Bar award recognition. That gives it a much clearer identity than a standard tourist pub listing.
