After a hugely successful two week pop-up at Kampus to test the waters, followed by four months of trading, alcohol-free pop-up bar experience Love From has announced it will be extending its residency at Kampus until the end of summer. Love From has been hosting a series of alcohol-free events for those who are off the booze, sober-curious or just looking for something outside of their norm to try at Kampus.
Founded by Karl Considine, host and founder of ‘What Next’ podcast, the space aims to provide all the buzz of being in an amazing bar without the alcohol, hosting queer disco nights and casual alcohol-free drinking opportunities in a bar environment.
In an Instagram post announcing the extension of the Love From residency at Kampus, founder Karl Considine wrote: “Love From alcohol-free bar is staying at @kampusmcr for a SUMMER RESIDENCY taking us all the way through to the end of August baby! 🤸🏻♂️ A few months ago this was a little idea in my head and now here we are approaching the end of our first 4 months of trading and being asked to stay for summer! 💜
“Thank you so much to everyone that has supported us and please keep doing the same so that we can prove this works! 🥹 So much more to come including menu upgrades, new events, outdoor space! 🏡More updates coming sooooooon but for now I just wanted to let you know! ☀️🍹Tell all your pals! 🙏🏻”
Back in December, Love From teamed up with the wonderful new Kampus General Store for a festive alcohol-free pop up bar, where visitors could enjoy delicious festive cocktails, alcohol-free mulled wine and even a mince pie or two. Love From joins Kampus neighbours such as Nell’s Pizza, Great North Pie Co. and Red Light, and will take over the central area that has previously been occupied by the festivities of Bar Hütte and used as an events space.
Love From boasts an impressive drinks menu with plenty of choices for teetotallers including ‘Keep The Paloma Faith’ (a refreshing grapefruit drink), ‘Let’s Get Mythical (think coconut Mojito vibes) and ‘Manchester Tart’ (a sour-style drink with lemon, cherry, vanilla and dark spiced flavours). You’ll also find an alcohol-free selection of beers on draught as well as komboucha and soda-style soft drinks on the menu.
Keep an eye out for updates on the Love From Instagram page, and happy alcohol-free drinking!
