A Moveable Feast is a set of memoirs by American author Ernest Hemingway. The book relates anecdotes of Hemingway's years in Paris as part of the American expatriate circle of writers in the 1920s. Some of the prominent people to make an appearance in the book include Aleister Crowley, Ezra Pound, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ford Madox Ford, Hilaire Belloc, James Joyce and Gertrude Stein. The book was edited by Ernest's fourth wife, Mary Hemingway, and published posthumously in 1964.

The book contains Hemingway's personal accounts, observations, and stories of his experience in 1920s Paris. He provides the detail of specific addresses of cafes, bars, hotels, and apartments that still can be found in modern day Paris.
