The 1985 CONCACAF Champions' Cup was the 21st. edition of the annual international club football competition held in the CONCACAF region (North America, Central America and the Caribbean), the CONCACAF Champions' Cup. It determined that year's club champion of football in the CONCACAF region and was played from 9 April 1985 till 26 January 1986.

The teams were split into 2 zones, North/Central America and Caribbean, (as North and Central America sections combined to qualify one team for the final), each one qualifying the winner to the final tournament. All the matches in the tournament were played under the home/away match system.

Trinidadian side Defence Force beat Hondurean team Olimpia 2–1 on aggregate, becoming CONCACAF champion for the first time in their history and also the first club from that country to win the competition.
