Anonas station is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station located on the LRT Line 2 (LRT-2) system in Cubao, Quezon City. It is named because of its location near Anonas Street.

The station is the ninth station for trains headed to Antipolo and the fifth station for trains headed to Recto.

Anonas station was temporarily closed due to a fire which affected two rectifiers of the train line between Anonas and Katipunan stations on October 3, 2019.[1] The station was reopened on January 22, 2021 after repairs to the rectifiers were completed.[2]

A station on the Metro Manila Subway Line 9, also called Anonas Station, is currently in development and will directly link to the LRT-2 station. [3]
