Food Records var et engelsk pladeselskab, der blev stiftet i 1984 af David Balfe, der senere optog Andy Ross som partner. Pladeselskabet blev oprindeligt grundlagt som et uafhængigt pladeselskab med distribution gennem Rough Trade Distribution og opnåede endvidere licens til en række artister på WEA Records. EMI blev medejer af pladeselskabet i 1994 og efter at være blevet eneejer lagde EMI i 2000 Food Records ind under EMI's label Parlophone.
Food Records kommercielt mest succesfulde artister var det britiske band Blur, der udgav alle sine udgivelser på Food Records, ligesom Food Records' ejer og grundlægger, David Balfe, fungerede som bandets manager i bandets første år. Andre artister var Idlewild, Jesus Jones, Dubstar, The Supernaturals, Octopus og Grass Show.
