Mighty Five

Head: Local restaurant will be hosting a “Harry Potter” night.

By Judd Workman

On Wednesday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Pizza Pie Cafe will host a “Harry Potter Night.” Those who come dressed up as Harry Potter characters will have a chance to win tickets to the new movie, “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.”

Pizza Pie Cafe, located at 25 E 1400 North, will be featuring its all-you-can-eat dinner for $6.75 during the three hour period. In place of water or soda, customers can also satisfy their palates with butterbeer, a famous drink in the Harry Potter universe.

Sierra Hanson, who is over local sales and marketing for the restaurant, said she is expecting this event to be “a big hit.”

“We’ve had a lot of hype about this,” Hanson said. “We are really excited for it.”

By encouraging magical behavior for this event, Pizza Pie has invited the Utah State Quidditch to come sell merchandise and sign autographs.

“Rather than just eating, they can come make a whole night of it and enjoy it with their families,” Hanson said. “We just want to let the community know we do fun things and we have fun family events that everyone can come to.”

The square tables in the restaurant will be decorated in order to add to the atmosphere, but customers will still be able to enjoy their meat-lovers pizzas, green salads and pasta dishes.

A manager at the restaurant, Joseph Pattison, said they will have a lot of staff on hand to make sure the night is enjoyable for everyone. 

“We’re expecting a pretty full house,” Pattison said. “We had someone call for reservations and I had to turn them down because we can’t reserve tables during the event.”

Pattison also said the owners ordered a lot of cream soda as they are expecting the butterbeer to be very popular.
