Robert Mallory (November 15, 1815 – August 11, 1885) was a nineteenth-century American politician and lawyer from Kentucky.

Born in Madison Court House, Virginia, Mallory attended private schools and graduated from the University of Virginia in 1827. He engaged in agricultural pursuits in La Grange, Kentucky, studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1837, commencing practice in New Castle, Kentucky. He was elected an Opposition and later Unionist to the United States House of Representatives in 1858, serving from 1859 to 1865, being unsuccessful for reelection in 1864. There, Mallory served as chairman of the Committee on Roads and Canals from 1859 to 1863. He was a delegate to the National Union Convention in 1866 and was one of the vice presidents of the Centennial Exposition in 1876. He resumed agricultural pursuits until his death near La Grange, Kentucky on August 11, 1885. He was interred in Spring Hill Family Cemetery in Ballardsville, Kentucky.
