Cafe Malbec -Wine & Tapas Bar in Brighton and Hove

Staff or management decide to park like clowns by blocking the pavement like they own the place.

A lovely little cafe, with steak house next door. Very nice empanadas, which I had with a coffee. Staff were attentive, but very rushed as there was only 1 person on and two big tables seated.

Absolute pleasure to visit again as per the recommendation of a great friend. We had a delicious lunch and relaxed over a 5 hour business meeting. I am really looking forward to visiting one night and sampling all the delicious meat dishes on offer.

Had the bottomless brunch and it was superb.£19 extra for very attentive service and eminently drinkable sparkling brüt or rose.Will 100% return in the future.Food was probably good too... Had drunk a lot by the end.

Absolutely fantastic, great vibes. The staff were super knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming (even accommodating last minute on NYE). The food was amazing and unpretentious - one of the best steaks I've had in Brighton. The wine and friendly atmosphere made it even better.

I've been here twice since my daughter has moved to Hove. The food and wine are wonderful and I can't recommend the Empanadas enough. Delicious.

Out standing place for wines and food. Very high professional standards of the staff and food presentation. Ultimately clean place and toilets. Great atmosphere to eat and drink. Staff are friendly and highly knowledgeable in regards to wine. Food is the best. Freshly prepared and the flavours is to be experienced. A true gem in Hove. I would recommend for those with sophisticated tastes and appreciate the Argentine flavours. The best I have experienced.

We dropped in as passing trade - not been there before. Tapas on the menu so we went for four dishes between two of us. My wife had a couple of glasses of their malbec and I had a bottled dark lager. Wine was super smooth hence second glass. The beer was a nutty, toffee flavour and very drinkable. The tapas were all excellent and decent sized portions. Will deffo go again! Yum!

Incredible venue serving empanadas, a selection of beers and most importantly an outstanding selection of South American wines. Great for a meet up with friends or an excellent spot for a date night. Varied menu with plenty of tapas dishes, desserts, vegan and vegetarian friendly too. Quite polished inside with no pretence. Friendly staff. Wine and empanadas to take away too. Definitely worth a visit.

Nice staff and perhaps good for a full on tasting BUT we went for a quick pre-meal drink...had a half bottle of wine ....and then got charged £5 corkage. Therefore cannot recommend for a quick drink. Ended up costing £20 for an okay half bottle. Shame as otherwise lovely staff and good concept.
