Erie–Torresdale station is a SEPTA station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It serves the Market-Frankford Line rapid transit line and buses. It is located at the intersection of Kensington and Erie Avenues in the Juniata neighborhood. The station building is located on the northwest corner, and is the last station to run above Kensington Avenue before moving above Frankford Avenue, the second street the line is named after. Erie Avenue becomes Torresdale Avenue after crossing Kensington Avenue, hence the two names for the station.

SEPTA bus routes at Erie-Torresdale include routes 3 and 56, both of which are former trolley lines.
