Where To Go For RB Nights In London

The promise of back-to-back R&B anthems all evening is music to most clubber’s ears, and London certainly doesn’t disappoint when it comes to great R&B nights. If you love nothing better than taking to the dance floor and partying to some Mary J Blige and R Kelly, check out these top spots for R&B music in the city.

The Book Club, Shoreditch

The name may sound rather dreary, but you can rest assured, The Book Club is one of the busiest clubs in Shoreditch with queues often running down the road and onto Great Eastern Street. For R&B fans, The Book Club hosts regular events including The Get Down every Friday night as well as R Rated which happens every couple of months. Friday nights at The Book Club often consist of resident DJ Jimmy Plates entertaining the crowd with the very best urban tracks. Just make sure you don’t leave it too late, because this popular spot fills up pretty quick on a Friday night, so best to get there early to avoid missing out on the action.

If you’re looking for a bit of midweek madness, Choke Wednesdays at Roxy offer back-to-back R&B classics until the early hours. The Roxy continues to entice clubbers with its affordable entry and reasonable drink prices, plus the space has a large floor area for dancing. Located just off Tottenham Court Road, down a small side street, the central location makes it the perfect spot to party if you want to escalate evening drinks into a last-minute night out.
