Abel Kitchin or "Kitchen" (died 1639) was an English merchant and Mayor of Bristol. He lived in Broad Street. Kitchin was Mayor of Bristol from 1612 to 1613. Anne of Denmark went to Bristol on 4 June 1613 during her progress to Bath. Kitchin and the town council organised various entertainments. They met the queen at Lawford or Lafford's Gate, and Kitchin gave her a satin purse embroidered with the initials "AR". In his will, Kitchin bequeathed the queen's ring to posterity in his son Abel's family.
