Ondavka () is a small village and municipality in Bardejov District in the Prešov Region of north-east Slovakia.

==History== In historical records the village was first mentioned in 1618. The population peaked in 1928 at 190 residents. As of 2024, there are 11 people left in the village. By the late 2010s, the village had no mayor as there was nobody interested in running for the office and was so heavily indebted that the village hall was foreclosed. Nonetheless, the village resisted all initiatives to merge it with one of the surrounding villages.
