Menzieshill is an area of the city of Dundee, Scotland. It is located on the absolute west of the city and is immediately north west of Blackness and the West End, west of Lochee, east of Gowrie Park and south of Charleston. Menzieshill is split into two parts: an eastern part of private housing, and a western part of council housing.

Menzieshill is home to Dundee's main water tower which serves the area. Menzieshill High School is located opposite the tower and Ninewells hospital is located to the immediate south of the area.

Menzieshill and its high school has been responsible for producing several professional footballers over the past decade including Mark Fotheringham, Bobby Linn, Bryan Deasley and Jamie Winter. Scottish international Kevin McNaughton is also from the area.
