Peter Hynes (born 28 November 1983) is an Irish footballer.

Hynes began his career as a trainee with Aston Villa where he played in Villa's 2002 FA Youth Cup winning side and turned professional in November 2000. In need of first-team experience, he joined Doncaster Rovers on loan in December 2003, making his league debut on 13 December 2003 when he came on as a late substitute for Gregg Blundell in Rovers' 3–1 defeat away to Cheltenham Town. He played in four further games for Rovers, all as a substitute, with his only goal coming in his final game, a 5–0 win at home to Leyton Orient on 10 January 2004.

Later that month he joined Cheltenham Town on a month's loan, playing four times before returning to Villa. He was released at the end of the season, joining Conference side Tamworth in June 2004 but left in July without playing a single game for the Lambs.

Hynes joined Dublin City as John Gill's last signing before relinquishing managerial duties at Dublin City and was deployed primarily as a striker by Gill's successors Roddy Collins and Dermot Keely.

Despite scoring the late winner which consummated Dublin City's memorable reversal of a 0–2 deficit into a 3–2 victory away to Derry City late in the 2004 season.

In contrast to his uninspired form with Dublin City, Hynes proved markedly more productive in the colours of Dundalk, whom he joined in 2005, scoring six goals from midfield in 2005. He formed, alongside Philip Hughes (with whom he played at Dublin City) one half of a prolific forward pairing which manoeuvred Dundalk into a strong position in the League of Ireland First Division. However, he was released by Dundalk following a breach of club discipline on 14 November 2006.
