The Kifisia station (Greek: Σταθμός Κηφισιάς - Stathmos Kifisias) is an Athens Metro train station in Kifisia, Greece. It is the northern terminus of the line. The station is situated at 25.655 km from the starting point in Piraeus. The station was opened on August 10, 1957 and was renovated in 2004. On the site of the current ISAP/Attiko Metro station, there was a station of the former Lavriou Square-Strofyli railway line at 15.500 km from Lavriou Square. It opened on February 4, 1885 and shut down on August 8, 1938.

On 3 March 2009, masked vandals destroyed a train waiting on one of station's platforms with Molotov cocktails, causing the service to be cut back to Eirini.
