Bishop Sutton A.F.C. are a football club based in Bishop Sutton, Somerset, near Bristol, England. They were officially established in 1977, although it is actually a reformed version of a club that dated from the early 1900s.

Bishop Sutton joined the Western Football League in 1991 after playing in the Somerset County League. A title in the 1997-98 season in Division One earned the club a promotion to the Premier Division, where they have played ever since.

They reached the 3rd round of the FA Vase in the 1995-96 season, losing to AFC Lymington.
