This brand new Harry Potter-themed bar is a fan's paradise
A Harry Potter-themed bar, The Lockhart, just opened up in Toronto - and it looks absolutely magical.
J.K. Rowling, Warner Brothers, and Bloomsbury Publishing don't appear to be affiliated with the project, so the bar owners are careful not to use the name "Harry Potter" or any other copyrighted material.
There's no butterbeer, for example, since that name of a Potter-approved beverage is copyrighted, according to the New Toronto. The references are more subtle: there's a drink called "The Shacklebolt" and a stag logo that nods to Harry's patronus. The bar name itself is inspired by Hogwarts professor Gilderoy Lockhart.
One reference, a drink called "Ludo's Debt," is so obscure, the bar owners have promised a free beverage to any customer who knows its meaning, New Toronto reported. Hint: Ludo is short for Ludovic.
If visiting Canada isn't in the cards and you don't have any floo powder handy, don't fear. Thanks to Instagram, you can still have a look inside the new bar.
