Now, enjoy a drink in the 'Harry Potter' world in Toronto
Toronto, Sep 10
Ever wondered if you could
pick up a broom and fly into the fantasy world of 'Harry Potter' with
enchanting castles and magical powers? Now, one can enjoy a drink at a
new Harry Potter-themed bar in Toronto, Canada.
The Lockhart, as a
reference to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in the “Harry
Potter†film franchise, opened its doors on Saturday and offers friendly
vibes, reports ew.com.
With subtle references to J.K. Rowling’s
magical tale through the décor and with innovative drink names like The
Shacklebolt, the bar aims to be equally appealing.
“Without
knowing any of the 'Harry Potter' stuff, you already will think of this
as a cool bar. You’d come here and see the stag’s head on the wall and
go, ‘Wow, I love that,’ but a 'Harry Potter' fan might say, ‘That’s a
Patronus’,†bar's co-owner Paris Xerx said to Now Toronto.
The
true fans of the film will also appreciate the bar’s neon sign, a heart
containing the closing words of the final Potter novel -- “All was
well.â€
The film series, with actors Daniel Radcliffe and Emma
Watson along with others, took over the world with its mystical and
gripping story line.
Rowling is currently working on the script
for "Harry Potter" spin-off "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"
which is scheduled to be released in the US on November 18, next year.
