What is the driving route from Tufnell Park?
From Tufnell Park station head east on Tufnell Park Road, turn left onto Junction Road and follow it to the Archway gyratory, then take the Holloway Road (A1) exit south-east.
Junction Road delivers you into the gyratory, which is one-way and busy. Stay left for the Holloway Road exit.
Set your satnav to N19 5SE, or open the route in Google Maps. One warning before you go: Holloway Road is a red route, so there is nowhere to stop outside.
Which bus or train should I take from Tufnell Park?
From Tufnell Park the quickest route is usually one stop north on the Northern line’s High Barnet branch to Archway, then a short walk. By road, Tufnell Park Road and Junction Road bring you out near Navigator Square in about five minutes when it is clear. The 4, 134 and 390 all run towards Archway, which makes this one of the few areas where the bus and the tube take roughly the same time.
The 4, 134 and 390 run towards Archway, and the nearest stations are Tufnell Park (Northern line, High Barnet branch) and Upper Holloway (London Overground, Suffragette line). TfL has live times.
Where do I leave the car?
Junction Road brings you into the Archway gyratory, which is one-way and busy, so decide before you enter it that you are taking the Holloway Road exit. Once on the A1 you are on the correct side. Turn off into the residential streets rather than looking for a space on the main road, because the main road is a red route and has none. Those side streets are Zone P: Monday to Friday until 6.30pm, Saturday until 1.30pm, free outside that. Given Tufnell Park is one stop away on the Northern line, the tube to Archway and a short walk is usually quicker than the gyratory.

What else do people ask about finding us?
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.
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.
What is the nearest station?
Tufnell Park (Northern line, High Barnet branch) and Upper Holloway (London Overground, Suffragette line). Archway on the Northern line is the closest station to the shop itself, a few minutes away on foot.
Why is the parking charge higher than I expected?
Islington adds an hourly surcharge based on your vehicle’s emissions on top of the tariff. The diesel surcharge in particular is high enough to notice on a two-hour visit. Check the live price in the RingGo app.
Is it easier to drive or take the bus from Tufnell Park?
From Tufnell Park the bus is usually the better call once parking is factored in. It is 1.1 miles, and a Zone P bay during controlled hours plus the emissions surcharge often costs more than the fare.
Where do these parking rules come from?
- Islington Council: where you can park with a Blue Badge — Blue Badge holders may park free and without a time limit in Islington short-stay bays.
- Islington Council: pay for short stay parking — Islington charges by the hour with an additional surcharge based on vehicle emissions.
- Islington Council: controlled parking zones — 647 Holloway Road falls in the Archway zone, Zone P.
