Radial Road 5, more commonly referred to as R-5, is a network of roads and bridges that altogether form the fifth radial road of Manila in the Philippines. The road links the City of Manila with Mandaluyong and Pasig in the east, leading out of Metro Manila into the province of Rizal and south towards Laguna. It is the only arterial road traversing the east side of the Laguna de Bay.

The road consists of the following segments:

R-5 begins as Victorino Mapa Street in Santa Mesa district from the intersection with Magsaysay Boulevard to where it connects to Padre Sanchez Street at a junction with Victorino Mapa Street Extension. It is the main north-south road of Santa Mesa.

R-5 is known as Padre Sanchez Street along the rest of the route in Santa Mesa. Named after Francisco de Paula Sanchez, a Jesuit priest from the Ateneo Municipal de Manila, it links Santa Mesa to Mandaluyong south of the San Juan River in Daang Bakal.

The main segment of R-5 in Mandaluyong and Pasig is known as Shaw Boulevard. Padre Sanchez Street merges with Shaw Boulevard at the intersection with General Kalentong Street. It travels east-southeast near the border with San Juan and passes through the Wack Wack Golf and Country Club before arriving at the intersection with Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (C-4). East of EDSA, R-5 forms the southern boundary of the Ortigas Center business district and quickly enters the city of Pasig after crossing San Miguel Avenue. It passes through the Capitol Commons development at the former Rizal Provincial Capitol complex before turning south on Pasig Boulevard at the junction with Hillcrest Drive in Bagong Ilog.
