A “Harry Potter”-inspired pop-up bar near Findlay Market will hold its grand opening Friday, and yes, there will be butterbeer.
Located on 1834 Race St. right down the street from Findlay Market in the back of the Cosmic Gorilla comic book shop and bar, Pennifold’s Pub will be open for the next two months on Wednesday through Sunday. It will be a Quidditch-themed bar, from the fictional sport on broomsticks in the “Harry Potter” books and movies.
And keep an eye out for Quidditch tryout posters scattered around: Those will lead visitors to Pennifold’s Pub.
People of all ages (or witches and wizards, to stay on theme) are welcome in the bar before 9 p.m. It will serve eight fall cocktails with the names of “key Quidditch plays,” according to a release, in both an alcoholic and nonalcoholic version. Pennifold’s Pub will, of course, also serve frozen butterbeer.
Here are the hours for Pennifold’s Pub:
- Wednesday and Thursday: 3-10 p.m.
- Friday: 3 p.m. to midnight.
- Saturday: Noon to midnight.
- Sunday: Noon to 6 p.m.
