Spikkestad is a railway station located at Spikkestad in Røyken, Norway and the terminus of Spikkestadlinjen. The station was opened as part of Drammenbanen in 1885, but in 1973 the new Lieråsen Tunnel opened through Lieråsen, and the old part of Drammenbanen was transformed to a commuter train line with Spikkestad as the western terminus.

The station is served by commuter trains to Oslo S and onward to Moss. Spikkestad is primarily a residential area.
