Located on the high street of Hove, Fourth and Church attracts passers with its charm and sophistication. We had been meaning to pay them a visit for a while and finally did last week for a date. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with an elegant but welcoming ambiance. The menu at Fourth and Church focuses on seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, each dish presents a unique blend of flavours. They offer snacks, small plates and hearty main courses. We went for a few of each as we were very excited to try everything. To snack on, we had Whipped Cod’s Roe with Old Bay Crisps (£6), Cornmeal Fried Oyster Mushrooms with Confit Garlic Cream drizzled on top (£7.5), and Iberico de Bellota (£10). The cod’s roe was creamy and paired well with the savoury crisps. The fried mushrooms were crispy and the cream was so garlicky, absolutely delicious. For our small plates, we opted for Porcini and Madeira Parfait with Pickled Mushrooms on Toasted Focaccia (£12). This was the highlight of our dinner. The parfait was creamy, the mushrooms were so flavourful and the dish was presented beautifully. We also had Hake Veronique with Fennel, Red Grape, Vermouth and Tarragon (£13). The hake was cooked perfectly and flaky. For our main course, we shared Slow Cooked Pork, Mussel Escabeche with Black Garlic Aioli and Smoked Almonds (£22). The pork was full of rich, aromatic flavors that melt in your mouth, while the mussels were slightly tangy and cut through the fattiness of the pork. Oh and I can’t go without mentioning the decadent whiskey truffles. Complementing the incredible food is an extensive wine list, carefully curated to pair seamlessly with the menu. No wonder they won “Best Wine List” in the BRAVO awards! Whether you're a wine connoisseur or a casual enjoyer (like me), the staff can help you through the selection. Thank you Peter for choosing our wines, they were delicious! Service at Fourth and Church is impeccable, with attentive staff who are passionate about providing a memorable dining experience. Peter kindly made sure that our food would come out slowly so that we could enjoy our wine with each dish and not feel rushed. We had a wonderful date at Fourth and Church. The food and wine is delicious. The service is top tier. I have no complaints at all, I’d definitely recommend it to everyone. Thanks for the invite, Anton!

For relaxed sophistication this place is superb, with elevated food and delicious carefully selected wines you really cannot go wrong. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable about their wines and will often challenge your thoughts on various regions or grapes, making a visit here both educational and enjoyable. It is clear they have a passion for the product they sell. The menu changes regularly and varies from lunch to evenings to weekends so there is never really a bad time to stop by. We used to visit most months for the evening tasting menu with wine pairing (definitely recommend this) which is exquisite but we have stopped going now owing to their awkwardness about whether they do or do not allow dogs and where and when they apply this policy. However, thats our own drama so if you’re dog free visit immediately!

This is more than just a restaurant to us, as we live locally. The staff are becoming friends and the small space dictates that there is intimacy between tables, allowing for spontaneous conversation with other diners, often to compare appreciative notes on what we are being given to eat. The occasional more engineered offering, e.g. a well-compèred exploration of sherries synchronised perfectly with a feast of compatible dishes, helps to reinforce the idea that this is indeed a local dive dependant on locals, as well as diners from London who have done their research properly. The welcome from Anna, Anton, Paul and the team is as warm as we have ever experienced and they never forget my wife's special requirements for easy-to-handle glasses and straws as she strives to enjoy everything from her wheelchair. We took my brother for dinner there as the weekend got underway and chose from the à la carte menu, essentially a shared feast: we amused our bouches initially with a croquette each as well as an oyster mushroom tempura. The croquette was in fact a fabulously spiced meaty, chewy assemblage with a remarkable tart-ish dip of something so exotic I can't remember its name. It was absolutely not the usual glutinous, potato-filled crisp-fried nothingness that the name conjures, and which I find on my plate in Belgium every time we travel there despite it apparently being some sort of national dish. The normally plastic-tasting and plastic-textured oyster mushrooms acquired true flavour and texture from the obviously special breadcrumbs and expert deep frying. The small plates which followed took us further up the ladder of quality: carefully selected Galician jamon (yes - Paul goes to check out the pigs first) with sumptuous accompaniments, a piece of perfectly cooked sweet hake with gentle sharp notes from the pickles on the side and magnificently smokey grilled hispi cabbage with spicy asides to boot. For the large plates, we chose a stone bass of substance and distinct flavour - not the same as the hake at all - and quite the most gorgeous chicken dish I think I have ever sampled. Give Fourth and Church something a bit mundane to cook and they will give it Michelin-stardom. You can't leave a meal like this, replete and half comatose from the shock of the various flavour bombs as you may already be, without a greedy curiosity about the deserts. So we chose the rhubarb and ginger Alaska and the chocolate, coffee and hazelnut tart. No contest between them - both scored round 10s in our collective assessment. Texture is so important in food these days, when you can get it (so many places pull their pork, slow-cook their lamb, or otherwise mush-ify what we eat that you might think we will be drinking all our food from straws in a few years' time): these deserts gave us crunch, creamy unctuousness and even a bit of chewiness to complement technicolour flavours. We all had something of everything: we were all bowled over by everything. A reasonably-priced and rare Grauburgunder to wash it all done following - of course - some hand chosen sherries to start. Hats off!

The venue hosted my birthday celebratory lunch in the private basement dining room. The chef’s six-course menu was a delicious fusion of ingredients, the wine selection was a mixture of well known and less known regions, great for exploring. Staff were super friendly and knowledgeable, guiding us through the dishes and offering extensive knowledge when questioning wines. I highly recommend a visit when travelling through East Sussex. Thank you so much for making my celebratory lunch so special and unforgettable. Best wishes Wayne.

This wasn’t our first visit to Fourth & Church, and there is a very good reason for this. On each occasion, the menu has been interesting (or as they say “reads well”) and the food spot on. We decided to have an aperitif ( a rather gorgeous Manhattan) while we looked at the menu. This worked a treat and got the taste buds going. After some deliberation, we were ready to order. At this point I think I should mention that the food arrived at a suitable pace. I do not eat meat, but have always found several items on the menu that I am more than happy to pick. On this occasion I had a small plate of Spiced Pineapple Glazed Chalkstream Trout and followed it with Roasted Hake. I could have a stab at describing the dishes in flowery foodie terms, but I am not that person. I will say, however, the food looked sensational and tasted fantastic. My wife’s meat dishes looked extremely appealing, but due to my dietary limitations, I will have to take her word for it that they also were delicious. We asked what would be a suitable wine and were steered in the right direction as it complemented our diverse choice of dishes. We weren’t in a rush and didn’t feel under any pressure to leave, so we decided to share a plate of cheese to round the meal off. We felt that we should have a glass of sherry, which in my opinion goes a lot better with most cheeses than port, and we asked for advice as to which sherry would be suitable. We were presented with three sherries than had been paired with the different cheeses. Some may think this sounds pretentious, but the gentleman who brought the sherry was very informed and talked us through what they were and why each should go well with its “nominated” cheese. He was bang on the money and both the drink and cheese got elevated to a higher level of deliciousness. The restaurant itself is informal, and the staff are a delight. We very much look forward to our next visit.

Unfortunately this was probably one of my worst experiences in Hove. On Saturday 28th witj friend and I stopped by early evening for a glass of wine. From the onset it appears that we were not the ‘type’ of person they wanted in their establishment. I felt unwelcome and even when we asked if we could sit on the chairs by the window which had backs our request was refused even though we stayed for over an hour and no other person walked in the to take the said chairs. We were charged for service which I refused to pay as unsure what it was for considering I was sat at the bar poring my own drink from a carafe. I asked for Spainish was offer Druro which is Portuguese and it was good wine but not Spanish! I really wouldn’t have cared and wouldn’t have written this review if I hadn’t of felt so unwelcome.

First visit here for a meal for a long while and it didn't disappoint. It's a relaxed place and the service is relaxed, professional and friendly at the same time. We had the set lunch and everything on it was excellent. It'd be easy to push the boat out price wise but it'd also be easy to eat well to a budget so the place is equally suitable for a celebratory meal or a simple lunch. The food itself was delicious, attractive to look at and very enjoyable. We'll hopefully be back again next week to try a couple of the small plates outside of the set menu, excellent though that was. An enjoyable lunch. Recommended.

Excellent wine bar with interesting meze style of food. The staff have a bit of an attitude - but just about get away with it as the place is packed and booking is absolutely essential. Expect to register to book a table and be prepared to be bombarded with reminders by sms.

Food was excellent and enjoyed every course. A bit surprised by the owner sharp welcome but the staff and waitress did everything and anything to accommodate and pamper us. Overall a good experience but place needs some improvement and attentive cleaning.

A superb spot to spend a lazy Friday lunch, drinking from the fantastic wine list and eating surely the best food available for miles around! We had the stunning cauliflower with vadouvan spice, and their glorious fried chicken with deliciously spicy kimchi remoulade; both long-standing...

I had the best meal at Fourth and Church that I have had anywhere in a very long time. We had padron peppers to start which were juicy, salty and curried, then three veg dishes which were the star of the show; a fantastic aubergine dish, heritage tomatoes and the standout burrata with peaches. Following this were barbecued tiger prawns and lovely char sui pork ribs. We even squeezed in two puddings - panacotta and a chocolate one which finished things off nicely. All of the dishes were clearly created and prepared by people with a passion for and a deep knowledge of great flavours. We had dogs with us and sat outside, this might be a problem if it's wet, but we went on a lovely afternoon. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the service is unhurried but efficient. You can certainly eat for less in the area, but I doubt you'll find better.
