IN LONDON, THERE’S a Harry Potter-themed hotel. In Orlando, there’s a whole theme park dedicated to the series. Now Toronto has its own Potter bar.
Please, can Dublin be next?
The Lockhart may appear like any old bar to regular punters, but Harry Potter fans will appreciate the subtle references to the books spread throughout.
The Lockhart’s owners, Matt Rocks and Paris Xerx, told NowToronto they wanted it to look like a “cool bar” to everybody, but leave something special for Potter fans:
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’.
Rocks and Xerx intend on serving some form of Butterbeer “once they figure out a name that isn’t copyrighted”.
Psst! Lads, we wouldn’t bother – it tastes like shite. Seriously.

Ah lads.

SNAP VOTE! red thumb for harry Potter. Green thumb for Lord of the Rings.
Meh I just realised any Lord of the ring fan wouldn’t bother clicking on the article.. So seeing as how many green thumbs there are. Pope prefer lotr more :)
What if you’re a fan of both? Don’t make me choose!
I like Harry Potter don’t get me wrong it’s a fantastic series.. But the quality of the three lotr movies are second to none. The awards show that
