The Love Inn

Lively bar on Stokes Croft set up by the Love Saves The Day team.


Since the days of Mackie's, 84 Stokes Croft has always been one of the area's most important venues. The building's current incarnation as The Love Inn continues where Big Chill left off - better programming, better sound and a more considered layout finally realises 84's potential.

With Team Love (the guys behind Love Saves The Day) at the helm, we're finally beginning to see collaborations with quality local promoters and well curated programme of DJs and producers.

Our recent recommendations for The Love Inn

Beatrice M has been tearing up the club scene for a hot minute, serving up trancey techno and deep, psychedelic textures. Their sound fuses old-school bass weight with sharp, modern production, hitting hard on any system. Joining them: Nante’s Soa420 gliding through dubbed-out halftime explorations.

A rare chance to catch the Welsh techno-pop star in a small cap club! Since that dreamy debut on Smalltown Supersound, Kelly Lee Owens has gracefully ascended the ranks of contemporary dance prestige with her emotive and transcendent club electronica; she celebrates a new EP with an all-night winter warmer at Love Inn.

Oosh! Commuters present another mind-warping treat as Robert Johnson resident and Perlon mainstay Vera takes the reins. Armed with a deep crate of cosmic freakery, she spins an acidic vortex of trippy minimal house and introspective techno – true witching-hour sorcery. Commuters w/ Vera + residents at The Love Inn.

Pessimist’s musical output has been monumental over the years, from his ominous industrial breakbeat on Ilian Tape, to his relentless dark‑side pressure on Blackest Ever Black, to the bone-rattling pressure on Osiris. For this one, he’s bringing his full jungle arsenal – brace yourselves. Debut for Kazza' party outfit Rekonize

Sleep Felt Far Away keeps it raw and unhurried, stripping things back to the essentials: two DJs, long sets and room to roam. This edition welcomes DJ JM (Nervous Horizon), diving deep into percussive house, kinetic techno and skeletal electro frameworks alongside Ido Plumes’ ice-cold club intricacy.
