Pablo García (September 25, 1925 – August 18, 2021) was a Filipino lawyer and politician who was the patriarch of the Garcia political clan of Province of Cebu. He was a longtime congressman and governor.

He was the son of Vicente García y Ramírez, a mestizo español from Sibonga, Cebu, and Josefa Parás y Carsolín, a local of Dumanjug, Cebu. His paternal grandfather was the notable Spaniard (español insular) merchant Antonio García Fortich.
