Kokopelli is shut down
The city says the bar's food license expired.
Kokopelli, the bar/nightclub at 1904 Chestnut St., was shut down Thursday by the city Department of Licenses & Inspections.
A city spokeswoman said it lacked a food-prep license. I have a call out to the bar's attorney.
Kokopelli succeeded another short-lived club, Akoya, which succeeded yet another train wreck, Pearl. For many years, the address was a location of Little Pete's.
The state fined Kokopelli earlier this year for selling discounted beverages for more than two hours in a business day; at the time, this violated happy-hour laws.
In follow-up to other recent shuttered-club news, it appears that furnishings and furniture have been removed from Swanky Bubbles, suggesting further that it is indeed done.
