Dunbar United F.C. are a Scottish junior football club from the town of Dunbar, East Lothian. Formed in 1925, they presently compete in the East Region. They play their home matches at New Countess Park, to which they moved in 2001. New Countess Park is within a sports centre and has a shared pavilion for Dunbar United and the local rugby union team, Dunbar RFC. There is room for around 2,500 spectators at New Countess Park.

The greatest achievement of Dunbar United was winning the Scottish Junior Cup in 1961. In more recent times though they have not been one of the stronger sides in the East Region, although they still have a healthier support than many of the other teams at the same level as them.

Dunbar United's home strip (uniform) is black and white stripes.
