Mitcham railway station is a railway station located on the Belair line in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. It is one of only two stations between Goodwood and Belair to have more than one platform. It is located 8.5km by rail from Adelaide Railway Station, and is actually located in Lower Mitcham.

It forms a major crossover point for trains heading to Adelaide and Belair.

The Mitcham railway station garden, known as Nellie's Garden, is named in honour of Nellie Iris Ellis (1920-1983) who established the garden. Mrs Ellis was the wife of a former stationmaster. The garden is maintained by volunteers and is one of only five public gardens provided by the City of Mitcham.
