Dawson Street () is one of the main streets of central Dublin, running parallel to Grafton Street, to which it is connected by Duke Street and Anne Street South. Much of the street is a shopping thoroughfare, including the bookshop Hodges Figgis and a rival branch of Waterstones.

Molesworth Street links the street to Kildare Street.

Saint Annes' Church is found on the eastern side and the Mansion House near the south end.

The street has a slight slope downwards from its Stephen's Green end to its Trinity end.
