Which bus or train should I take from Finsbury Park?
Finsbury Park is a major interchange, which is exactly why so many screens get broken there. From the station the 210 runs west through Stroud Green and Hornsey Rise to Archway, and the 4 goes via the Nag’s Head. Driving from N4 is around six minutes outside peak, though Seven Sisters Road and the Nag’s Head junction can add to that considerably at rush hour.
The 4 and 210 run towards Archway, and the nearest stations are Finsbury Park (Piccadilly line, Victoria line and Great Northern). TfL has live times.
Where do I leave the car?
If Seven Sisters Road is queuing, Hornsey Road runs roughly parallel and rejoins the A1 further north, which on a bad afternoon can save ten minutes. Either way you join Holloway Road heading north and arrive on the correct side. Park behind the main road in the Zone P streets, controlled Monday to Friday until 6.30pm and Saturday morning. The road outside the shop is a red route, so there is nowhere to stop on it at all. Coming from the station itself, the 210 to Archway is usually the better call, particularly at rush hour when the Nag’s Head junction is at its worst.
For the full picture on controlled hours, paying by phone and Blue Badge rules, see our find us page. Islington Council publishes the current tariffs.

Can I stop outside the shop to drop a device off?
No. Holloway Road is a TfL Red Route here, so stopping on the red lines is prohibited at all times and enforced by camera. There is no grace period and no drop-off allowance. Use the side streets behind the main road.
I have a Blue Badge. Where can I park?
Blue Badge holders can park free and without a time limit in Islington’s short-stay bays, and for up to three hours on single and double yellow lines with the clock displayed. That does not apply on the red route outside the shop, so please use the side streets.
Can you repair it while I wait?
Many common repairs, including most phone screens and batteries, are finished the same day and often while you wait. Board-level work and anything needing a part ordered in takes longer, and we tell you which it is at assessment.
