The Anglo-French War of 1627–1629 (French: Guerre franco-anglaise) was a military conflict fought between the Kingdom of France and the Kingdom of England between 1627 and 1629. It involved mainly actions at sea. The centrepiece of the conflict was the siege of La Rochelle (1627–1628) in which the English Crown supported the French Huguenots in their fight against the French royal forces of Louis XIII. La Rochelle had become the stronghold of the French Huguenots and was under their own governance. It was the centre of Huguenot seapower and the strongest centre of resistance against the central government.

The English also launched a campaign against France's new colony in North America, which led to the capture of Quebec.
