Mobile Chateau is the third full-length album by singer-songwriter Matt Costa. It was released through Brushfire Records on September 21, 2010. The album sees Costa taking on the role of Record producer for the first time.

In his positive, four-stars review on Allmusic, Matt Collar writes that Costa's Anglophile obsessions are "amplified here with a sound that brings to mind the best of the mid-'60s Invasion", mentioning as influences British mod rock, the Zombies and the Byrds.
