Lovely novel idea, train carriage was beautifully restored and the sun was shinning which added to the day.
Food was pipping hot and lovely quality. Service was excellent couldn’t ask for more.

Something different for a breakfast or cake and coffee out.
Beautiful carriages, lovely setting and great service. Definitely worth a visit.
My only comments would be that we would have preferred a few more breakfast menu choices e.g. Eggs Benedict or just a plain old bacon sandwich.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the unique setting of our carriages and the great service—we aim to make every visit special, so it’s wonderful to hear your feedback. It’s a shame you missed our Eggs Royale on the brunch menu (featuring Severn and Wye smoked salmon, toasted English muffins, and hollandaise sauce). Please feel free to ask our team about menu options; we’re always happy to help find something just right for you.
