Savage Gardens is a minor street in the City of London, connecting Crutched Friars in the north to Trinity Square in the south, crossing Pepys Street. It was pedestrianised in 2011.

The house of Sir Thomas Savage was here in the 17th century, after whom the street is named.^[1]

The nearest London Underground station is Tower Hill. A mainline terminus is also close by at Fenchurch Street, as is a Docklands Light Railway station at Tower Gateway.
