The New Haven Railroad's Hyannis station was located at 477 Yarmouth Road in Hyannis, Massachusetts from 1953 until 1964. The station building today houses a restaurant, and has operated as different restaurants for a number of years.

In 1953 the New Haven Railroad converted the structure, which was once used as a railroad freight house, into a passenger station.[1] The station was closed in 1964, when the New Haven Railroad discontinued passenger service to Cape Cod.
