The 1983–84 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship was the 14th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county club hurling tournament.

Loughgiel Shamrocks of Antrim were the defending champions; however, they failed to qualify after being beaten by Ballycastle McQuillans in the 1983 Antrim SHC final. Lixnaw of Kerry and Midleton of Cork made their championship debuts.

The All-Ireland final, a replay, was played at Semple Stadium in Thurles on 3 June 1984, between Ballyhale Shamrocks of Kilkenny and Gort of Galway, in what was a first championship meeting between the teams. Ballyhale Shamrocks won the match by 1–10 to 0–07 to claim their second title overall and a first in three years.
