According to KDVR, the wizard-themed pop-up bar has closed less than a week after opening to customers. The restaurant confirmed with KDVR that it will "no longer be moving forward" with the Harry Potter-themed pop-up bar.

The reasoning stems from the request, or possibly a demand from the entertainment company, Warner Bros. The film company owns the rights to all Harry Potter films, television series, and worldwide merchandising.

An employee of the restaurant told KDVR in a voicemail that the Harry Potter-themed pop-up bar was "too magical" and Warner Bros. asked for it to be taken down. Which is kind of a bummer.
