Mäkkylä is a station on the VR commuter rail network, between the cities of Helsinki and Espoo in Finland. It is situated between Pitäjänmäki railway station and Leppävaara railway station and is about nine kilometres northwest of Helsinki Central railway station.

Previously travellers to Mäkkylä from Espoo could use an Espoo internal ticket, and travellers from Helsinki could use a Helsinki internal ticket. However YTV changed this, and after 28 August 2005 Mäkkylä is considered within Espoo. As a result, travellers from Helsinki require a regional ticket (Finnish: seutulippu, Swedish: regionbiljett).
