[FONT=&#48148] I visited a pub “The Eagle” to have dinner, It's near the Cavendish Laboratory, which is famous for many Novel price winners. So many physicists visit the pub to discuss with each other.

Is the underlined correct?

Perhaps:
with one other
because physicists are many.

My suggestions.

As the pub is a specific unique one, I think it should be "the pub", not "a pub".
What do you mean by the parenthesises?

I visited the pub (“The Eagle”) to have dinner.
 
Nobel prize winners.

To discuss academic things with each other.
 
As the pub is a specific unique one, I think it should be "the pub", not "a pub". OK.

Why did you use parentheses?

I visited the pub (“The Eagle”) to have dinner.

You enclose something in parentheses when you provide additional information. Example:

I visited the pub (The Eagle) to have dinner there.

Inserting the name of the of the pub into the sentence that way saves you having to use a whole sentence to state the name.

I think keannu means to focus on the name of the pub.

I went for dinner to a pub called The Eagle ...
I went to a pub called The Eagle for dinner ...
 
Keannu, the Nobel Prize was named after Alfred Nobel, who established the fund for it. (He invented dynamite.)
