The Birch Baronetcy, of The Hasles in the County Palatine of Lancaster, was a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 30 September 1831 for Joseph Birch, previously Member of Parliament for Nottingham. He was succeeded by his son, Thomas, the second Baronet, who represented Liverpool in Parliament. The title became extinct on the latter's death in 1880.

Thomas Birch, father of the first Baronet, was Mayor of Liverpool in 1777.
