Since 2010, Hemingways has stood proudly as the only locally owned and independent cocktail establishment within the ever desirable Wimbledon Village.

The bar lies in the heart of the village, and plays host to a mix of local faces and visitors from afar. Our staff come from a multitude of backgrounds, each bringing something unique and memorable to your experience.

Having been awarded ‘Best Cocktail Bar in South-West London’, you can be rest assured in the knowledge that, whether you’re after an ultimate classic like an Old Fashioned, a modern pick-me-up such as an Espresso Martini, or one of our own in-house creations, including the ever popular Pomme d’Hemingways, our highly trained bartenders will ensure that your drink truly hits the spot.

Hemingways, however, is not a one trick pony; we hold communal wine tasting events to tailor a bespoke menu for our clientele and these fine wines have been used to build a modest yet considered range that pairs excellently with our selection of homemade pizzas and antipasti.

The strength of Hemingways’ reputation has allowed us the great privilege of bringing the versatility of our experience to your own homes with the launch of ‘Hemingways at Home’ where we provide a range of different services to create a bespoke event just for you.

    One of the worst bar experiences I have ever had. You would have thought somewhere called Hemingway's would be able to make a good daiquiri, but the drinks were completely unbalanced. We ordered two drinks for two people. When four turned up we politely told them we only ordered two. The water demanded that we had actually ordered four, after some discussion they removed the two additional drinks. When the bill came the two additional drinks were included. Again we were told that we had ordered them and so should pay, even though we didn't order or drink them! We eventually managed to pay for the drinks we had, but as we were leaving we were asked why we had ordered another two drinks, which we obviously hadn't ordered! The barmen then began to complain about each other and how bad they each are at their jobs, very unprofessional! The two male barmen were rude throughout and we won't be returning. I would suggest anyone thinking of coming here goes to one of the pubs in the village instead where you will get better drinks and much better service.

    As locals to the area, we visited Hemingways on a warm spring evening, looking forward to a casual drink outside. From the start, the service was poor — my partner was spoken to aggressively while ordering. Things went downhill when one of our drinks arrived in a visibly dirty glass (grease, fingerprints, residue). After politely asking for a clean one, the same glass was returned. When my partner queried it at the bar, she was met with sarcasm, including a staff member asking whether she'd like to "choose a glass herself." A supposed owner later dismissed the issue entirely on our way out, refusing to take any accountability and doubting 'our version of events'. We walked just five minutes down the road to another venue and experienced the complete opposite: warm, friendly service, clean glassware, and great value for money. Hemingways charges premium prices, but delivers none of the basics — cleanliness, courtesy, or professionalism. We won’t be returning.

    A lovely afternoon bottomless brunch had here to celebrate my mum's birthday. The staffing team were lovely and welcoming and the cocktails were visually stunning and tasty. Thank you Raul for the special flaming rum punch! A wonderful afternoon spent in Wimbledon. Will be back.
