Deipneus (Ancient Greek: Δειπνεύς) in Greek mythology, specifically in Sparta, is a demigod of the preparation of meals, specifically the making of bread. He was revered in Achaea.

Polemos says that in Mounykhia (Munychia) honours are paid to a hero Akratopotes (Drinker of Unmixed Wine), and that among the Spartans statues of heroes named Matton (Kneader) and Keraon (Ceraon) (Mixer) have been set up by certain cooks in the public mess. In Akhaia (Achaea), also, Deipneus, who got his name from deipna (Dinners), is held in honour.
