It might take something extra special to coax the scenesters of Shoreditch out of their comfort zone these days, but Brixton's Plan B is certainly that. Especially since re-opening with a space-morphing Funktion One soundsystem and 24-hour license in 2009, it's got uber-cool clubbers flocking south of the river every weekend.

Consistently bringing the most revered names in house and techno - the likes of Kerri Chandler, Soul Clap and Jimpster - alongside the gritty starlets of UK bass music - Icicle, Joy O and Ben UFO - its sparse jet-black interior serves as a minimal backdrop that allows the music to do the talking. For an excuse to visit South London, Plan B is one you need.
