Robert Emile Adair (1876 in Ireland – 18 March 1951 in Essex, England) was an Irish cricketer. He was a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler.

He first played for Ireland against I Zingari in August 1899, and next played in Ireland's first four first-class matches in 1902, his last coming against Cambridge University. He later played for a Scottish Counties team against Yorkshire in 1910 in a match that was abandoned after one day due to the death of King Edward VII.
