The 1986–87 All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship was the 17th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county club hurling tournament. The championship ran from 31 August 1986 to 17 March 1987.

Kilruane MacDonagh's of Tipperary were the defending champions, however, they failed to qualify after being beaten by Borris–Ileigh in the final of the 1986 Tipperary SHC. Clara of Kilkenny, Killimordaly of Galway and Leixlip of Kildare made their championship debuts.

The All-Ireland final was played at Croke Park in Dublin on 17 March 1987, between Borris–Ileigh of Tipperary and Rathnure of Wexford, in what was a first championship meeting between the teams. Borris–Ileigh won the match by 2–09 to 0–09 to claim their only title.

Rathnure's Jimmy Holohan was the championship's top scorer with 0–37.
