Alfonso Bedoya (1904 - 1957) was a Mexican actor.

Born in Sonora, Bedoya had, allegedly, a nomadic childhood upbringing that included an education in Houston, Texas. He found work, mainly as a character actor in the US film industry in the 1930s and the Mexican film industry in the 1940s.

He is best remembered for significant contributions to John Huston's The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948) as "Gold Hat", the bandit leader who declares his lack of need to show "stinking badges".
