Wild Flor Hove

Wild Flor Hove

Wild Flor can be found on Church Road, which is the main thoroughfare of Hove. This neighbourhood is relaxed and although only a stone’s throw away from Brighton’s bustling North Road, you can feel its Hove-like qualities almost immediately. With wide roads, public lawns and gardens and a mix of commercial and independent shops, Hove has an air of opulence well suited to fine dining and quality wine.

In 2025 Wild Flor was voted among the best restaurants in Brighton at the annual Brighton Restaurant Awards.

Passionate and committed

When talking to James and the team behind Wild Flor Hove, the first thing that strikes us is how they share such immense enthusiasm and commitment to delivering a first-class dining experience. This is reflected in their consistent inclusion among the best restaurants in Brighton at the BRAVO Awards. The team have known each other for many years and it shows in their polished and seamless approach to dining. Being open for over three years now, this restaurant in Hove has really made a name for itself in the city as a welcoming neighbourhood restaurant.

Rustic meets elegant at Wild Flor Hove

The interiors at Wild Flor Hove are sophisticated but unpretentious and the beautifully exposed brick walls, lined with wine bottles, evoke the ambience of rustic French elegance. In Wild Flor, they have created a relaxed, comfortable setting for diners to unwind and enjoy some of the finest food and drink that the city has to offer.

Locally sourced ingredients

The kitchen sources its ingredients from some of Sussex’s finest producers. Much of the meat comes from Calcot Farm near Steyning, where they’re supplied the whole beast. Charcuterie is provided by Garlic Wood Butchery, Saddlescombe Farm, and Rebel Charcuterie, their Hove-based neighbours, and even the charcoal used in the kitchen is local, from Wealden Charcoal.

Ethical and seasonal produce sit at the heart of Wild Flor’s menu. Alongside Sussex suppliers, they work with other small, new-wave British farms that share their values. Shrub Provisions supply much of the fruit and veg, while Brighton and Newhaven Fish Sales (BNFS) provide seasonal, sustainably caught fish.

It’s no surprise that guests often praise the exceptional quality of Wild Flor’s dishes. The team would be the first to credit their trusted suppliers, recognising the care and integrity that go into every ingredient they use.
