BRAVO award winners for

The Best Wine List in 2025

Best Wine List Brighton

Wine lovers are a passionate lot, and there’s no shortage of you eager to vote for the best wine list Brighton can deliver. A winning wine list is more than a menu – it’s a journey through vineyards, a maker’s story, and a showcase of expertise and passion. And of course many local wine lists celebrate Sussex vineyards and Sussex Sparkling produced on our doorstep.

Whether it’s a perfectly paired wine flight or a single exquisite glass, the best lists cater to all tastes and budgets while they surprise and delight.

Congratulations to this year’s BRAVO winner – Wild Flor – and to all the fantastic venues shortlisted in 2025. Let’s celebrate with a glass of great wine (or two)!

First place

Rightfully earning the #1 spot, Wild Flor’s award-winning wine list is thoughtful, approachable, and refreshingly adventurous.

The carefully curated selection respects every budget without sacrificing quality, guided by a passionate, knowledgeable team ready to offer personalised recommendations. Wild Flor proudly partners with outstanding winemakers and leading local merchants to offer dynamic choice and memorable vintages.

Second place

Whether you’re dining, dropping in for a glass, or choosing something delicious for home, the Fourth and Church wine list consistently ranks among the very best – and for good reason.
