Dennis Taylor (born January 19, 1949) is a retired Irish snooker player. He was the 1985 Snooker World Champion, beating Steve Davis on the last black in a tense final.

Taylor was renowned for the glasses he wore during matches, the large frame supposedly gave him a broader view of the table.

Taylor now commentates on the four televised snooker tournaments each year for the BBC.
