Kanrodai (Japanese: 甘露台) is a Tenrikyo-based shinshūkyō (Japanese new religion) founded by Asano Hiroshi (浅野博) in Setagaya, Tokyo. It started as a splinter religious organization of Ōkanmichi that was founded by Egami Toshitane (江上寿胤) when it was still based in Tokyo. It is one of the smallest Tenrikyo-based religious organizations in Japan today. Due to its general long-term rejection of proselytization, Kanrodai is currently a moribund religious organization. It is not to be confused with the sacred object of reverence, Kanrodai.
