Market Tapas & Wine

You'll find yourself in a proper neighbourhood spot that takes its food seriously without any of the pretension. Market Tapas sits on Western Road in Hove, where the vibe is refreshingly unpretentious—think packed tables, animated conversation, and the kind of place where regulars actually exist. The tapas menu hits all the classics you'd want: croquetas that aren't greasy, patatas bravas with actual flavour, jamón that tastes like it travelled from somewhere real. Their wine list is the real draw though; they've clearly thought about what works with the food rather than just listing expensive bottles.
