The Geek Bar on Bower Road in Harrogate has closed for good.
The board game bar and restaurant was opened in March last year by Alan Evans, who wanted to combine his love of geek culture with his background in hospitality.
It offered geek-themed cocktails and food as well as a Dungeons and Dragons table and a wide range of board games to play.
However, the landlord of the building has decided he needs the building for other purposes, so Geek Bar has had to move out.
The site was previously home to LeD2 restaurant for 15 years.
Mr Evans told the Stray Ferret:
“[The landlord] is turning it into office space I believe but I don’t know too much.
“We are on good terms with him and he has been super reasonable with everything.
“We are continuing our D&D sessions at my offices on Hornbeam Park. We are currently looking for a new site here in Harrogate and talking to a few people on using their space for potential pop ups in the new year.
“We are super proud of the community we started and we hope to keep it going in whatever form it takes in the future.”
