Brewster is Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of Brewster, New York via the Harlem Line. It is the southernmost station in Putnam County. Trains leave for New York City every hour, and about every 25 minutes during rush hour. It is 53.2 miles (86 km) from Grand Central Terminal and travel time to Grand Central is approximately 1 hour, 24 minutes.

This station is located in the Zone 7 Metro-North fare zone.

A sizable amount of the station's ridership comes from across the Connecticut state line given the quicker trips, shorter headways, and (outside peak hours) lack of a mid-trip transfer to Grand Central as opposed to taking the Danbury Branch of the New Haven Line. Because of this, Housatonic Area Regional Transit (the Danbury-area mass transit provider) has a route and a shuttle connecting Danbury to Brewster station.

The station itself is located next to downtown Brewster, on US 6. Since parking on the nearby streets is extremely limited, a large lot slightly uphill from the station serves commuters. It is also notable for having a grade crossing right next to the station, like Katonah. Whenever northbound trains come through, the gates remain down for the entire time the train is in the station.

In 2006, the MTA announced $3.7 million worth of renovations it planned for the station to improve traffic flow and pedestrian crossings on nearby streets and add more parking.
