Earfood is a studio album by the Roy Hargrove Quintet, issued by the EmArcy record label in 2008. It was a return to Hargrove's enduring interest in hard bop, following several albums in which he explored jazz within a hip-hop and R&B context.

The album is notable for the inclusion of the composition, "Strasbourg / St. Denis", which has since emerged as a modern-day jazz standard.
