Gemmill Lane (Chinese: 仁美巷, Pinyin: Rénměi Xiàng ) is a small lane in downtown Singapore. It connects Club Street to Amoy Street with only one-way traffic, from the former to the latter. The lane gets narrower as you go, until eventually the lane is wide enough for a single vehicle to pass through.

Gemmill Lane was named after John Gemmill, who was a merchant and auctioneer, and obviously a man of considerable wealth, to have the lane named after him.
