Rosedale is a station on the Yonge-University-Spadina line of the subway system of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is at 1009 Yonge Street at Crescent Road. It was opened in 1954. Nearby landmarks include Ramsden Park and the neighbourhood of Rosedale.

This open-air station has separate canopies over the two platforms. Originally the line continued north in open cut as far as Price Street, where the tunnel resumed, but a one-block section from Rowanwood Drive to Price was roofed over in 2002. Despite its proximity to downtown Toronto it is one of least used stations in the entire subway system, in part because Rosedale is an area where most people prefer to walk or drive.
