Beautiful place to grab a delicious cocktail. Dark, romantic lighting is perfect for an intimate date. However, there is very limited seating and they are very busy so be prepared to wait for a seat. They have very reasonable prices for what you get, making this a go-to spot. Also great appys menu which is a great pairing to the cocktails. 5*

Great great great. It's funny. It's like a pub but you do get super cool fancy cocktails that are actually potions and you literally see smoke or explosion, fire....so on. Light.....pretty funny and the waitresses are there to bring each one out one at a time so you can take pictures and videos. It's pretty unique spot I would say. You easily book your slot on the website and you come. Food was way better than I expected and the cocktails were made at a high caliber quality. Will be back for sure!

This place was great! Friendly & helpful staff. Tasty and creative drinks-well balanced, not too sweet. Best yet- I was hungry and there was so much food on the menu which I didn’t think there would be since it’s mostly a cocktail lounge. Butter chicken was amazing, and the cocktail presentation was out of this world! Exceeded our expectations

Brilliant experience, just the right amount of magical and genuinely fun. We went for a friend's birthday and the staff were so involved and made it such an enjoyable experience, from playing the bday song and waving sparklers that seemed so hype to actual cocktails in the style of potions that actually tasted good, it was so much fun. Definitely recommend! Can’t wait to try more potions

Disappointing experience. As true millennials, we were excited to enjoy a Harry Potter themed bar but unfortunately were let down. Though the decor was amazing, the theme seemed to end there. The music was so loud we couldn’t hear ourselves across the table, much less our server. Throughout the 90min that we were there, they turned the music up twice. We expected a specialty bar to be consistent, but the vibe was haphazard. There are several TVs in the small pub, but only one was playing a HP film. At the very least why not play HP music in the background? The service is incredibly slow, despite it being a small space. We waited twenty minutes after being seated (with a reservation) for our server to take our order. In 90minutes we were only able to order two drinks. The presentation of drinks is a cute idea, but seems to serve as an excuse for the service to be slow and a way to mask the mediocre drinks which are way overpriced for the quality. We expected a novelty bar to provide the full experience and The Potions Room under-delivered. Will not be returning and wouldn’t be surprised if patrons attend once and never go back.

One of the best cocktail bars around the neighbourhood. Best to go with the expectation of a wait to get seated, but well worth it for the atmosphere. Great staff and made our experience one to remember. Very Covid friendly as well

This spot is gorgeous! Perfect for people watching along Potter movies and really comfortable sofa seats that feel super private and cozy. Absolutely loved everything about this place while on a recent date. The menu is massive and each drink description is spot on. We ordered two rounds of cocktails (Unicorns Blood, Butter Beer, Goblins Piss and Keeper of Keys) and some snacks including Beirut Street Magic, Jinxed Jerk Tacos and Conjured Calamari. Everything was stellar and service was so friendly and timely.

Fantastic place to relax and hangout. The harry potter theme is fun with lots of things to look at. The servers have always been so kind and attentive.
