Hove Food Trial This Weekend

Posted 8 July 2025

Looking for something lovely to do in the sunshine this weekend?

Looking for something lovely to do in the sunshine this weekend? You’re in luck, the @hovefoodtrail is running from Thursday 10th to Saturday 12th July, and I was lucky enough to get a sneak preview… and it’s looking fantastic!

So, what is the Hove Food Trail? Twelve of Hove’s best-loved restaurants have teamed up to create exclusive, one off dishes just for this event. All you need to do is purchase a ticket online (check the link on the Hove Food Trail page), and you can visit any of the participating venues to try their special creation. Each £15 ticket gets you one bespoke dish at one of the restaurants. Advance booking is recommended, but walk-ins are welcome if there’s availability. (And yes — word is that @littlefishhove might be making a special appearance!)

Here’s a taste of what we tried during the preview last week: @thecoconutislanduk_ – Kothu chopped roti with mixed veg and beef: A simple yet deeply flavourful dish, hearty and satisfying. @market_restaurant – ‘A Taste of Market’ seasonal tapas selection: Light, fresh, and perfect for grazing in the sunshine with a glass of wine. @cincinuk – Crab lasagne with crab pangrattato crumb and giardiniera salad: An absolutely stunning dish, rich, elegant, and served in their beautiful courtyard. We paired it with a spritz and soaked up the atmosphere.

I think this event is such a great idea. My tip? Grab a couple of tickets, pick a few spots you’re curious about, and enjoy a leisurely wander through Hove, stopping at each venue for delicious food and drink as you go. It’s a perfect way to spend a sunny day! If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a message or reach out to the Hove Food Trail team directly. Enjoy the trail and the sunshine!
