This is a train station where the Metro-north railroad and Amtrak trains stop. You can also transfer to the Greater Bridgeport Transit Authority buses or get a ferry to Port Jefferson. There are two platforms with for 4 tracks. There's elevator. The station is clean and there's a security office with cops, as well as a sandwich and coffee shop. There's plenty of seating in the waiting room, and again, it's very clean and well heated. Very organized. There are parking garages close by. The train to Grand Central is convenient and clean, with good service. read more

The Bridgeport Metro North Train Station is a solid choice if you're commuting or catching a train to NYC or beyond. One of the best things about this station is that it's directly connected to the Bridgeport Bus Terminal, so you can easily transfer to pretty much any local or regional bus from here, super convenient if you don't drive. There is a commuter parking garage nearby on Main Street. It's affordable on weekdays (about $6/day), but heads-up: it's closed on weekends, so plan ahead if you're traveling then. It feels a bit safe here, there's usually a police car parked outside, and the station is pretty well lit. It's not fancy, but it gets the job done and the location makes it easy to get around. read more

Good, functional train station. Easy to access. No complaints. We hung out about 19 minutes before moving to the platform to catch our train to Grand Central Station. read more

Station is adequate. Plenty of seating, coffee shop, waiting area is clean. Usually there is always security and police presence around.

Dropping a friend off here, this hood looks a bit sketchy however has fast route to nyc read more

Bridgeport Train Station - Train Stations Near Me - Bridgeport, Connecticut

If I have to go to the airport in NY and I have nobody to drop me off, or my flight leaves in the afternoon, I don't mind taking the train. It's relaxing, power plugs available to charge my phone or iPad and it takes me straight to Grand Central. From there I take the 7 and then the Q70 to LGA, one way off-peak under $20.00. Maybe it's the Dutch Globetrotter in me, but I love taking the train. read more

A little dumpy but I've seen worse in the south Bronx. They upgraded the train information boards with nice electronics Unfortunately you can only buy tickets via machine. There is a parking garage across the street at the Holiday Inn but they no longer offer the $10 commuter rate since COVID. read more

Shit experience. No consistency whatsoever. Gross train station. Trains will come late, let off passengers, not let new folks get on. Trains will wait 10 minutes or 30 seconds to leave, who knows? Employees unhelpful. Used this station a handful of times, not going to anymore. read more

Kind of seedy and parking is terrible. Place is not inviting at all. This is not a train station I'd recommend but it is convenient to the Bridgeport and Stratford areas and they have many trains going in and out. The place is really in need of an overhaul and it's in a rough area. Parking could also be very much improved on. For myself I prefer the Fairfield train station. read more

Sufficient. Not visibly dirty. You can buy sandwiches (with Boar's Head meat.) It's also on the water if you like looking at water and stuff. read more

Train station is convenient and connected to a clean, partially new bus station. The Long Island Ferry is just steps away. Only two blocks from fast food, City Hall and Housatonic Community College. Major Total chain just across the street. Post Office two blocks. How could a train station in the City be more convenient? In Bridgeport it's always been about outsider's limited perceptions. They want to compare it to NYC only an hour drive away. It changing for the better as downtown becomes more resudebtial with affordable apartments and new shops like Subway Cafe, BassPro, T-mobile, Chipote and Starbucks. It's a neat place to visit if you approach it with an open mind. read more

While in NYC, I took a day trip to see some family & friends in CT. Took the train from Grand Central and got off here. It's pretty clean, wasn't all hobo'd out or anything. Good size parking lots, good areas for pickup & drop off, and a good amount of taxis waiting too. Trains seemed to run on time when arriving and departing. Be careful to not walk off the platform before the train arrives, because it happens more than you think. Don't be the guy I saw that had to lean way over to see if the train was coming. Anyways, it was real convenient, nice & quick process to get on & off, pretty good station. read more

Not in the best part of town, there were some homeless people hanging around in the station. Police presence could be seen at times. The restrooms were gross, I will leave it at that.Easy to get in and out of. read more

A very convenient train station that serves both Amtrak and metro North. I flew into LaGuardia but needed to get to Bridgeport, so I decided to take the Amtrak. I took it from Penn Station to Bridgeport and it was only 3 stops in less than 2 hrs. This train station is small but it gets the job done. There are 2 main tracks, track 3 and 4. You walk upstairs to where track 3 is and there is the information screen with all the train schedules, as well as a little coffee shop for snacks. There are also self serve kiosks where you can buy tickets if you haven't previously done so. Aside from the info screen, you can also track amtrak departures via online or by app. You can also load your ticket via app, so you dont have to pay. It was really easy to navigate this station and I would happily come back in the future. read more

0 stars for this shithole, changed my track last minute made the eta of the train arrival longer and longer but wasn't actually correct. Missed my train and had to sit in the station for another hour and a half with hagglers asking for money. There is no help desk and only 1 or 2 unhelpful security guards. Being a women alone in this station at night is dangerous especially if you don't know the area well. read more

Not the best train station, but not terrible either. The few times that I've had to take a train from here I was always grateful for the security people and police around. You can definitely run into some shady characters here. Last time I took a train, it was to go pick up my car from the shop in Stamford. I took one of my pitties with me and I must say, she was treated much better in Bridgeport than in Stamford. read more

Very convenient travel from the Ferry. You just hang a right from the Ferry and walk along the boardwalk. It's well lit and many people do it, so there's safety in numbers. They could do a better job with the signs. Typically, the tracks closest to the water go to New Haven/Boston. The tracks on the other side go to NY. It would have been helpful if that were posted. I ended up being on the wrong side. Similarly, there is an underground passage between both sides that keeps you out of the elements. Again, would have been nice if that was posted. Both sides have indoor waiting rooms with vending machines. The NY side has a small cafe. Security is present, but I would stick close to the waiting rooms. read more

Positives: Plenty of affordable monthly parking. Large waiting room on the NY side (not so much on the New Haven side). Well lit and safe. Areas of Improvement: Cleanliness!!!!! The stairs to the platforms always have something! Be it dog poop or throw up. It only dissipates due to rain or people not looking and tracking it on their shoes. But still, it's there for a good 4 days. Also, it would be nice if the little store inside would A. Stop robbing people B. Accept debit cards. read more

I expected to have to bring my own shovel today due to a snow storm. To my surprise, the Bridgeport train station workers did a wonderful job. This station has been transformed from the old, dark and scary looking station of years past. Everything is clean and presentation. The artwork in the underground tunnel adds a fresh touch. The speaker system is loud enough to hear. Security can be seen roaming around keeping us safe. I used to travel a few more exits to catch my trains from Fairfield. This is no longer necessary because I feel very comfortable here. There is a walkway directly to the bus terminal. There are many cabs lying in wait. The ferry walkway is just a stones throw away as well. There is a small cafe inside that offers a variety of choices, but make sure to bring cash. read more

This train station has a lot of positives for commuters: ample parking, easy access to Port Jefferson ferry, covered walkway from Webster Bank Arena, etc. Some negatives: despite the fact that the walkway is relatively new, it looks awful (see photo). Also, weekdays when commuters are coming and going seems safe, but weekends (especially evenings) can be a whole different story. Bring your mace. They have security guards, but what they really need is a Bridgeport cop or two, just to patrol the place and keep out the crackheads and moochers. read more

Thanks for changing the track from 4 to 2 and then having NO signs which meant I went across the tracks to try to find 2 and missed my train. Now I get another 2 hours in this unfortunate place. Apparently track 4 hasn't been in service for months and they randomly last moment assign "2" with no direction as to where it is...because IT IS ACTUALLY TRACK 4! Welcome to alice in wonderland without anything pretty. read more

Bathrooms and general facilities were clean. Ticket machines in good working order. Deli appeared to open reasonable hours. Good accessibility for parking nearby. A good access point to NYC. read more

The one thing about this train station that is great is all the space, whether it be on the NYC side or the New Haven side. Located next to the ferry and right on the water. NYC side has more machines, New Haven side only has one for metro north read more

wish the New Haven Bound side had a bigger waiting area especially when you are need to get a connection for the Waterbury line.... Other than that it is convenient and safe... read more

Clean station with a lot of character. Looks like there was a large waiting area but I couldnt see all of it
