St Jude's is a mixed residential, commercial, and light industrial area of central Bristol, England, forming part of the Lawrence Hill ward. Situated immediately east of Broadmead and the city centre, parts of the area were historically known as Poyntz Pool and the Lamb Ground. It developed from a 17th-century extra-mural settlement into a densely populated Victorian district.

In the 20th century, St Jude's underwent the process of slum clearance and redevelopment, resulting in the high-density social housing that characterises much of the area today. The neighbourhood is bounded by the M32 motorway to the north-west, Stapleton Road to the east, and Easton Way to the north. St Jude's has historically been an area populated by immigrant communities, and remains a culturally diverse area today.
