Mallow's main station building is located on the "south side of the railway tracks," nearest to the town, and is constructed from the grey stone typical of many Irish stations. It houses the booking office, administration accommodation and "other facilities." There is a covered footbridge at the south-west end which enables passengers to reach the two other platforms, which are all through platforms. It is the transfer station for passengers changing onto the Mallow–Tralee line. The station was acclaimed as Iarnród Éireann's best overall station in 2004.

Location※

The station is located in Annabella, just outside Mallow, in north County Cork. It is situated just north of the junction between the lines from Cork and Tralee. It is two miles from Cork Racecourse.
