The Kellogg Glacier is an approximately 14 km long glacier on the Black Coast of the Palmerland on the Antarctic Peninsula . At the base of the Condor Peninsula, it flows in a south-easterly direction along the north flank of the Boyer Spur and flows into the north side of the Gruening Glacier immediately before the north-western head end of the Hilton Inlet .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it in 1974. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1976 after Karl S. Kellogg, geologist of the survey and member of the team that mapped the area along the Lassiter Coast between 1972 and 1973 .
