Herbert Ernest Bates, oft auch kurz H. E. Bates genannt (* 16. Mai 1905 in , Northamptonshire; † 29. Januar 1974 in Canterbury), war ein englischer Schriftsteller. Schon zu Lebzeiten gern gelesen, wurde er nach seinem Tod durch etliche Verfilmungen seiner Romane populär. Am bekanntesten ist er durch seine Larkin-Geschichten, die er 1958 mit dem Roman The Darling Buds of May eröffnete. Für Graham Greene stand er – mit seinen besten Werken – sogar Tschechow nicht nach.
