The Hog's Head

The Hog's Head is both a pub and inn of significantly less charm than The Three Broomsticks, attracting a darker brand of clientele. Significantly lacking in the cleanliness department, The Hog's Head, some say, must have surely seen better days. Others believe that the Hog's Head was built look dusty, dingy, and beaten. There's often an inch of dirt carpeting the concrete floors and empty, unwashed mugs still sitting on the bar.

The tavern is an almost suffocatingly small room with windows so coated in filth that very little sunlight ever filters through. The Hog's Head is almost naturally cast in shadows for its shady patrons to hide in and conduct business underneath the veil of.

There was once a secret passage connecting it to Hogwarts, but it was destroyed during the great war and was never reconstructed, deemed by one Hogwarts Headmaster as, ''"A tunnel that once allowed all manner of filth into the heart of Hogwarts, a dangerous path that will never be opened again." ''

Once owned and ran by Aberforth Dumbledore, the Hog's Head has been passed down into the hands of Nicholas Sheen, a stout, middle-aged, gruff looking man of no relation to the Dumbledore's.
