Hemingway's

Great vibes and yummy food. Loved the spicy cocktail too!

wonderful experience, ftom the moment we walked through the door. Arrived before our reservation time to enjoy a drink and the glorious ocean views. We were greeted warmly, and had great recommendations from the bar. Smbirnce lovely, surrounded by books, pictures, and quotes by Hemingway. Food was delicious, and very attentive service. Couldnt fault Hemingways. Thank you for a lovely evening.

The staff were so friendly and attentive. A wonderful little local haunt that I will indeed visit again

We love Hemmingways. After a break of a few months we were a little cautious given the rapidly changing nature of restaurants in sydney! But we we greeted again with the consistently good food and still quite authentically French - always love the lamb!! The two fish dishes our friends ordered seemed a little pared back on this occasion... although still good quality and very tasty (apparently) those two meals presented more like a restaurant serving “contemporary Australia” food than bistro French... A tarte tartin to finish for the one gourmande amongst us was reportedly rich and tasty. Love the wine list with wines from our favourite French regions. Hope
the lovely owners stay true to their French roots- if so- we’ll be back!

Great share plates followed by beautiful lamb stew and chocolate fondant. This is a popular, buzzing restaurant with plenty of character. Very enjoyable

Nice Decore and music. Prices good but food very average. Share plates were good. Not sure if we would go back.

A terrific meal at a great spot, very atmospheric, awesome location, happy customers :)

Great food !

Very friendly service. Nice tasty food at a reasonable price. Cosy decor; view to the ocean. Recommended.

Another Great Night at Hemingway's!
Excellent meal...... We had the Chicken Nuggets and Cheese to share as starters and the Lamb as main course!
Excellent service/wine and bubbles......... You must try it!

Had a lovely meal, lots of food, will be back.

Great, cozy fun place with a great vibe and staff with welcoming smiles ... the food was just lovely .. to top it off there was live music.. great place and going back!

We enjoyed a delicious meal at Hemingway's in Manly. A small vibrant bar/restaurant with a warm, inviting French inspired atmosphere, it attracted singles, couples and small groups on the Saturday night we went. Service was excellent.

Food was very good! And well presented. Didn’t have to wait long for the food either. Unique menu and drinks menu.

sensational as always

Lovely meet and greet by staff. Great atmosphere and food was beautifully presented. Would go again!

nice guys!

The food was amazing and atmosphere cosy
I would go back again and hopefully soon

We had a great night dining at Hemingway’s! We’d only previously been for breakfast, which we already love, but dinner also did not disappoint. The service was attentive and fast, the food was delicious and mixed in with a bit of live music, this made for an overall great dining experience. Would recommend that you get along and make the most of the great happy hour deals!

Great spot for Sunday evening meal. Good food great desserts. Friendly service.

Excellent food and great atmosphere.The Manager Tom and his team made us feel very welcome and looked after us very well.I would highly recommend Hemingway.Keep it up.

We had an amazing steak! Great service, super friendly staff!

Great night. Lovely food. Fab customer service

Unfortunately my friends and I didn’t enjoy the dining experience at Hemingway’s. We were disappointed to find a very limited menu that was difficult to see because of the poor lighting. I realise the idea was to create ambience but this shouldn’t be at the expense of all 4 of us (and others I noticed in the restaurant) being unable to read it. I’d been told that there was a bigger variety of hamburgers available at lunchtime but when I asked why there was only one choice on a Saturday night and that was only vegan, the waitress said’ That’s the only choice’. In other words, no other choice. We aren’t vegans and it’s not a vegan only restaurant so it didn’t make sense.
We chose fish and chips with fries and salad. However, when it came it was really a big shallow bowl of tons of chips( 2/3 of the plate/bowl to make up for the small pieces of unappetising fish and 3 lettuce leaves) and 3 small pieces of fish that didn’t resemble the flathead fillets as per the menu. Oh and there were 3 small limp lettuce leaves. That doesn’t constitute a salad! The waitress asked were we happy with our meal and we gave an honest answer which was most disappointing. She took that onboard and said she’d convey they to the chef.
I can’t see us returning to Hemingway’s and won’t be recommending it to family or friends.

The staff was really friendly, food was delicious and great atmosphere. Perfect place on a cold winter night! ( they have Mulled wine too)

What a unique little place !
Lovely atmosphere and the food is generous and different ! ( I had steak tartare as a main and wow!!! )
I would highly recommend for a cozy dinner with friends :) divine!

Cozy and relaxed for a 6.30 pm early dinner. We took our 11 & 12 year old, so a party of 4. Plenty of sharing food for all. Delicious food and the wine was good. Will return without children next time.

Hemingway's at Manly is an excellent little restaurant. The atmosphere is really warm and inviting and if you're a book lover you'll really appreciate the decor. The service was excellent and so was the food. We had the Chicken nuggets (delicious!) and the Charcuterie & Cheese plate for entree which was probably more than we needed but what the hell :-) My wife had the Steak Tartare which she loved while I had the Fish and Chips which was very tasty. Our son really enjoyed his Three Cheese Pizza. We were too full to order dessert but overall really enjoyed our experience at Hemingway's and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a delicious and informal meal on the beach at Manly.

We enjoyed everything about our dining experience at Hemmingways. The staff were engaging and informative and the food excellent! We loved the ambiance of the place and will enjoy another time there in the daytime to check out how it feels at that time of day. Those after a quaint and quiet spot to enjoy some time together.. this is it!

Atmosphere was great, food was very good, and service was impeccable.

Great food and service. Excellent night

A delicious evening with fabulous setting and service. Thanks

Great sitting outside on mild night
Great vibe of Manly
Sharing plates good

Great service, great food and delicious cocktails! Will definitely be coming back!

Excellent service and food. Especially with the live music. Great ambiance. Highly recommended

Really happy with our choices and service was spot on. Took visitors who are keen to go back when next in town...

Great service with nice food

Lovely place with a great view. The food was tasty with decent sized portions but some of the flavours were a bit bland. The service was a little slow despite it being quiet.

Food and service were good,

One of the best places to go in Manly. Great atmosphere and food. Will go back regularly

Excellent food, service and location.

Great small place facing Manly Beach! They are also very accommodating!

Good fish and chips. We ordered the sweet potato wedges instead of the chips and it was amazing. All 3 of us really enjoyed the meal. Staff very helpful and friendly. It was good to sit inside. Bonus was to get there early about 6.30pm for dinner as it's not too noisy and then stroll along the beach. Great easy going night.

We had for starters the 3 Hemingway's special - the chicken nuggets and cauliflower nuggets were delicious! For main my wife had the 4 cheese pizza, she said it was ok nothing special and I had the sirloin steak with sweet potato chips and mushroom sauce - steak was cooked perfectly and the chips were really good, the sauce was a bit boring but the only think that really disappointed me was eat the steak without a steak knife - not fun!
We had chocolate mousse and creme burle for dessert and they were delicious! Overall experience was great!

This is a return visit - last time was mid-winter so we wanted to try a summer visit and we enjoyed the cauliflower nuggets and truffle parmesan fries so much the first time, we had them again - didn't disappoint! We added the chicken nuggets and falafel share plate which was good too. Unfortunately the chorizo pizza was off the menu - run out of chorizo!? - but we tried the mushroom pizza which was yummy, just not what we were hoping to try.Very friendly staff.

We arrived at Hemingway's after a lovely stroll on Manly Beach, catching the ferry across from the city is a real treat to someone who doesn't really live around the area. But we were delighted from the beginning at Hemingway's with the uniqueness of the restaurant, great location and delicious, different types of food.
The service staff were friendly, and gave you the coolest style of drink menu I have ever seen, stapled to older books we got more distracted reading the book than reading the menu!
The overall highlight was definitely their unique chicken nuggets, would go back regularly just for these!
Thank you Hemingway's for a lovely evening.

One of the best restaurants in Manly (if not Syd). Love the food and atmosphere - such a gem!!

This place deserves great reviews. The food (Shares Plates and Pork Belly) were exceptional! The staff attentive and fun!
A definite recommendation!

Lovely and cosy .
Shared plate for starters .
Lovely cool bottle sav Blanc
Tuna for me steak for my husband.
What more can you ask for highly recommend!

Had never been there and was surprised at the wonderful atmosphere right on Manly beach front. Had a great meal and very personalised service.
