Kendal railway station serves the market town of Kendal in Cumbria, England. It is a stop on the Windermere branch line, which runs between Oxenholme to Windermere. The station is owned by Network Rail and is operated by Northern Trains, who provide all passenger services.

The station opened on 28 September 1846 as the temporary terminus of the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway. Through trains operated from 20 April 1847 when the Kendal and Windermere Railway opened its line to Windermere.

The second platform at the station was taken out of use when the line was singled in May 1973. A car park now occupies the site of the demolished Oxenholme-bound platform, signal box and goods depot. The signal box was dismantled after closure and rebuilt at Kirkby Stephen on the Settle-Carlisle Line. The former station building survives, but no longer forms part of the station itself; it is now in private commercial use.

The station has one platform, which has a stone-built shelter. It is unstaffed; passengers must buy tickets in advance or from the conductor on board the train. Train running information is provided via digital CIS displays, a customer help point and timetable posters. Step-free access is available from the four-space car park and main entrance to the platform.

The station is served by one train per hour in each direction between Windermere and Oxenholme, with some services running direct to Manchester Airport. Passengers for most other destinations must change at Oxenholme.
