๐ง Fun fact
The Thirsty Scholar Pub in Boston gained some fame when it was featured in the 2010 film "The Social Network." This pub was used as the location where Mark Zuckerberg (played by Jesse Eisenberg) and his friends are seen drinking and discussing the creation of Facebook. This scene adds a bit of Hollywood glamour to the cozy and traditional atmosphere of the pub, making it a popular spot for both locals and tourists who are fans of the movie.

The opening scene of Mark Zuckerberg getting dumped by his girlfriend Erika takes place in The Thirsty Scholar Pub. It sets up the self-absorbed character of Zuckerberg. Interestingly, Harvard University didn't allow filming on campus, so this pub in Somerville served as a substitute location.
