The station is unstaffed, however the North Cheshire Rail Users Group have "adopted" the station and work on a voluntary basis to keep it looking clean and tidy.^[2]

Although unstaffed (as noted), the station has a self-service ticket machine (card payments only) to allow intending passengers to buy before boarding or to collect pre-paid tickets. Train running information is provided by CIS displays, timetable posters and a pay phone. Waiting shelters are also provided on both sides. Step-free access is available to both platforms, although the footbridge between them has stairs.^[3]

Most services at Frodsham are operated by Transport for Wales, with a limited service operated by Northern Trains.

Transport for Wales generally operate an hourly service between Manchester Airport and Chester, with most services continuing to and from Llandudno via Shotton, as well as an hourly service between Liverpool Lime Street and Chester. These services combine to give an off-peak service of two trains per hour in each direction.^[4][5]

The station is also served by a limited peak hour Northern Trains service between Chester and Leeds with four trains per day to Chester and five trains per day to Leeds via Manchester Victoria.^[4]
