Whitaker's Chapel is a historic chapel in Enfield, Halifax County, North Carolina. The chapel was originally an Anglican chapel, but was later used by Methodists. It was built about 1828, and is a transitional Federal / Greek Revival style frame building. The original section measures 26 feet by 36 feet. It was moved to its present site in 1880-1881, and a vestibule and chancel extension were added sometime after. The chapel was restored in 1965. The adjacent church cemetery was established in the 1850s.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
