Hemenway's es un restaurante ubicado sobre las márgenes del Río Providence y que se especializa en mariscos. De hecho, es uno de los restaurantes de ostras más querido de College Hill. Como Providence está cerca de los grandes puertos marítimos de Nueva Inglaterra, como New Bedford, Boston, Gloucester, Cape Elizabeth y muchos más, Hemenway's es donde encontrarán los frutos del Atlántico. El restaurante lleva el nombre del abuelo de su fundador, Charles M. Hemenway, un residente y emprendedor de ciudad que amaba Nueva Inglaterra. No es necesario decir que el menú está preparado con delicias provenientes de granjas, pescaderías y productores locales; solo deben preguntarle a los camareros y ellos les informarán.
