Can the word 'till' be used as in the following sentence?

"Can you come along with me till Baker Street?"

If not, please tell me a better way of putting it.

Yes, you can use 'till' that way, daemon99. However, I think I'd prefer 'as far as' rather than 'till' (or 'until') in this particular sentence.
