Hemingway's Devonport - North Shore

Hidden just off the main street lies the delightful restaurant, Hemingways. With its charming interior and friendly staff, it offers a cozy atmosphere, complete with optional blankets to keep guests warm. The dishes here are thoughtfully crafted, showcasing a wonderful blend of textures and flavors; the pork is almost braised, featuring a delicately crispy crackling, while the beer-battered fish has a pleasantly distinct beer flavor. My visit to Hemingways truly brightened my day.

I had an amazing experience with the market fish served on cauliflower purée. I've dined here twice now for dinner, and both times were wonderful. I definitely want to come back and try the breakfast menu someday. The courtyard is also fantastic in the summer!

I visited on a windy and rainy day, so the restaurant was quite empty. The server was friendly and attentive. We ordered the seafood platter and artisan bread, which were decent, but given the price, the portion size was a bit small, which they had informed us about. On the other hand, the fish and chips and the burger were served in generous portions and offered great value for money.

Really really great experience in this cute garden style restaurant~ I'll definitely rate a 5 star. Foods are beautifully cooked and services are considerate. All the sauces are light but flavorous, that's exactly what I expected. Recommend the seafood medley, fabulous calamari and prawns. La Famiglia is another dish I would highly recommend, never thought pizza with bananas and avocado would this yummy, oh, soooooo yummy. Prices are reasonable, and portions are huge haha…This is the kind of restaurant that I would visit again and again

Booked a table for three using first table. staff were amazingly friendly and accommodating. we turned up early and were seated outside amongst the herbs.we had the lamb koftas as starters. beautifully presented in a fragment mint sauce and tzatziki. the meat was beautifully cooked. we also ordered the breads and dip which had the most gorgeous balsamic reduction.My partner had the pork belly on a cauliflower puree and celeric slaw. I opted for the eye fillet. it's often hit and miss if someone can cook a steak! mine was cooked to perfection and seasoned really well.Ihemingways sits off the main road in devonport which can often be overlooked. all I can say is please turn down rattrey street and give Hemingways a try.
