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

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. Sleep Felt Far Away w/ DJ JM + Ido Plumes at The Love Inn.

One of the UK’s longest-serving electro acts, Transparent Sound deploy live transmissions of crunching modular and wiry acid for a hardware spectacular. Their incredibly under-repped classics feel on par with household names such as Radioactive Man, DMX Krew, Helena Hauff & London Modular Alliance – don't sleep! We're Going Deep w/ Transparent Sound , Amy, Owain K + Placid at The Love Inn.

Hyperdub’s Ikonika returns with a dancefloor workout of low ‘n’ slow, sad ‘n’ sexy club hybrids, oozing with sultry amapiano flavours, sweltering gqom-grime fusions and contemporary pop vocals. Paired with local Djembe groovers from Siraya and DJ Stolen, this will be one hard drum Halloween. Club Djembe Halloween w/ Ikonika, DJ Stolen + Siraya at The Love Inn.

Sell out warning! Nottingham’s torchbearer of rudeboy techno psychedelia: Señor Wigflex’s straight up EBM wobblers, jackin’ house and future-retro electro = ONE HUGE TRIP. Essential must-dance for the 140 weirdos and future bass addicts alongside Harri Pepper’s acid house forays through the downtempo sludge. Lukas and Harri on their roundabout tour of B2Bs

After a festival-packed summer, the Italian slo-mo duo bring their groovy R&B, street soul and funk flair to The Love Inn for the night, joining forces with Bristol’s most prominent disco collective for pure dancefloor fulfillment. A big recommendation for those that dig DJs like Budino, Shy One, Idjut Boys, and Sassy J. Big ol' Disco throw down at the Inn
