Real Ale Ray left this review about Scholar's Bar
An amazing pub with a traditional interior, excellent staff with a well run and efficient bar service, even when it's busy. I noticed some old handpumps on display in the lounge as we entered the pub which was a good sign and some big screens as this is a sports bar. The pub has also won Camra Pub of the Year 24/25.
Nine ales on handpump, Ossett Excelsius, White Rat and Yorkshire Blonde, Harrogate Salted Caramel Porter, Abbeydale Serenity, Thornbridge The Union, Brew York Tonkoko, TT Landlord and Theakston Old Peculier

This bar consists of a large roughly square open plan room with a wooden floor and an area for pool and darts at the rear left. The fairly sparse furnishings were mainly of the taller variety but I managed to find a low seat and table. It wasn't that busy on a Tuesday evening in February.
I only spotted six hand pumps on the bar at the rear right which had Hambledon Nightmare Porter, RAT White Rat, Kelham Island Aviator, North Riding Waimea & Coffee Bean Mild and Roosters Scrambler. I went for the Aviator which I think was £3.60 and was in good nick. Having failed the dice game for a second (free) pint I left. I thought this place was OK but there is no escaping the TV screens which would have completely ruined it for me if they had all been on with sound.
