St. George Street (alternatively spelled as Saint George Street) is a road in the central area of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Named for 19th century French Royalist military officer Quetton St. George, the tree-lined avenue runs from Dupont Street in the north to College Street in the south, where it continues as Beverley Street.

The street runs through the St. George campus of the University of Toronto – of which it is the namesake – south of Bloor Street West, with its northern portion running through the Annex neighbourhood. It is also the namesake of the St. George subway station, located at St. George and Bloor Street West.
