Calgary’s newest cocktail bar plays Harry Potter movies on repeat

Via The Potion Room

Did your acceptance letter from Hogwarts get lost in the mail? Yeah, ours did too. So while you wait for a thousand red seals to flood your kitchen, check out The Potion Room in Calgary! It’s a place where witches and wizards like us can grab an elixir and just kickback.

The Potion Room is a bit of a tight squeeze, but we guarantee any Harry Potter superfan will enjoy this place. It’s not the size that matters, it’s how you use it, and man did they do the absolute most.

The ceilings and walls are covered in callbacks to the magical series, and even plays a loop of the movies on massive screens lining the bar.

But the experience goes well beyond the decor! Whether you’re a muggle, a mudblood, or come from a long line of Gryffindor graduates, enjoy handcrafted cocktails inspired by JK Rowling and the timeless world she created while munching on tasty grub. A litle Polyjuice never hurt anyone, right?

This is definitely one Calgary spot you’ll want to Slytherin to.  Ah. See what we did there?
