My favorite spot in Saskatoon to grab food and hang out with some friends!
Excellent as always! The food is top notch, the staff is great, and the atmosphere is unmatched. A fantastic locally owned establishment
Went for the pinball. Awesome time.

The Thirsty Scholar offers a unique atmosphere and endless drink options. The food is great, with good portions at a fair price. Many customers praise the food, especially the fish & chips, which is often described as the best in the city with hot, fresh fish and crispy batter. The chicken fajita dip is also highly loved for its delicious taste. The restaurant features a variety of activities, including pool tables, pinball machines, VLTS, and trivia, making it a lively place to hang out. Service is generally friendly and attentive, contributing to a positive experience. While some dishes, like the Toro Tots—described as mashed potatoes mixed with other ingredients and frozen before frying—have received mixed reviews, the drinks are appreciated for their vast selection and quality. Food can sometimes take a little longer than expected, but the drinks and entertainment make it worthwhile. Overall, The Thirsty Scholar provides a fun and satisfying experience for its customers.
