'''Apahida''' ({{langx|hu|Apahida}}; {{langx|de|Bruckendorf}}; {{langx|la|Pons Abbatis}}) is a commune in [[Cluj County]], [[Transylvania]], [[Romania]]. It is composed of eight villages: Apahida, Bodrog (''Bodrog''), Câmpenești, Corpadea (''Kolozskorpád''), Dezmir (''Dezmér''), Pata (''Kolozspata''), Sânnicoară (''Szamosszentmiklós''), and Sub Coastă (''Telekfarka'').
