Jelonki Północne (Polish: [jɛ.lɔŋˈki puwˈnɔt͡s.nɛ]; lit.'North Jelonki') is a neighbourhood, and a City Information System area, in the Bemowo district of Warsaw, Poland. It is a mixed residential area with low-rise single-family neighbourhoods of Stare Jelonki and Friendship Estate, and the high-rise multifamily housing estate of Górczewska. It includes the Górczewska Park, and features two stations of the Warsaw Metro, Bemowo and Lazurowa, as well as the Warszawa Jelonki railway station. It forms a northern portion of the area of Jelonki.

Jelonki was founded in the 19th century at a small farming community. In the 1920s, its land was partitioned, and the village was developed as a garden suburb. It was incorporated into Warsaw in 1951. In 1952, the Frienship Estate, a neighbourhood of wooden houses, was built within its current boundaries, originally providing accommodation for Soviet migrant labourers, and after 1955, for university students and teachers. In the 1970s and 1980s, the housing estate of Górczewska with mid- and high-rise apartment buildings was constructed, within its boundaries.
