The Wicked Wolf closed suddenly in April - just months after opening.

A man has denied racially abusing and assaulting doormen at the Wicked Wolf in Harrogate.

Liam Rigby, 24, of Ripley Drive in Harrogate, appeared before Harrogate Magistrates Court yesterday (September 5) where he spoke to confirm his name, age and address.

Mr Rigby was charged with racially aggravated intentional harassment against the two named men and biting one of them at the Montpellier Gardens bar on April 5 this year.

The 24-year-old pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Magistrates adjourned the case for trial on December 11, 2025, at Harrogate Magistrates Court.

The Wicked Wolf opened in December last year but closed in April.
