Baggot Street (Irish: Sráid Bhagóid) is a street in Dublin, Ireland. The street runs from Merrion Row (near St. Stephen's Green) to the northwestern end of Pembroke Road. It crosses the Grand Canal near Haddington Road. It is divided into two sections:

  • Lower Baggot Street (Irish: Sráid Bhagóid Íochtarach) - between Merrion Row and the Grand Canal. It was called Gallows Road in the 18th century.
  • Upper Baggot Street (Irish: Sráid Bhagóid Uachtarach) - south of the Grand Canal to the junction with Eastmoreland Place, where it continues as Pembroke Road.
