    There's a fruit and veg stall by the Wells Terrace Underground entrance/exit most days which does great fresh produce for bargain prices. Better than you'll get in the shops. Cherry cherry cherry!

    It's a quicker tube change to Victoria and Piccadilly lines than at kings cross, so if using those lines into London, change here rather than there (journey time to kingsx the same). Same applies out

    If you're on a train to Moorgate,need to change to the Victoria line and feeling lazy, change at Highbury and Islington instead,it's easier!

    When it's cold and you are early for your train, walk up the steps very very slowly, or just wait downstairs until you hear the beep of the train doors. But be quick.

    Try the Happening Bagel Shop on Seven Sisters Road opposite the park. Great bagels and their patties are yummy too.

    Northbound to anywhere south of Stevenage? Try platforms 5 and 6! (usually 5 after 10pm)

    How First Capital Connect is allowed to run a train service in this country is baffling. Persistently late, late, late all the time! Clean up your act, incompetent buffoons! What a disgrace.

    There is a little coffee shop at the back (near the road bridge) which is sun bathed in the afternoon. Unfortunately, they don't serve a decent coffee

    the small shop on station place sells oyster cards, better than waiting in the queue for the ticket office

    Platform 6 for Winchmore Hill - You want the Letchworth, Hertford or Stevenage variety.

    Really, there is no exit from Finsbury park. It is an island of cold winds and late trains full of drunks trying to get to somewhere via Cambridge. Look out for the weird holes that reveal stairs on 6

    They put the ticket gates in because more revenue is lost at this station due to fare dodging, than at almost any other station.
