With only MICHELIN-starred or recommended restaurants and venues awarded at least two AA Rosettes or other prestigious awards making the shortlist, you're guaranteed that whichever you choose you know you’ll be in for a very special culinary journey. Venison’s subtle game flavour and lean texture pairs perfectly with other seasonal ingredients, such as hearty root veg and tart. Some even offer 'rover' day tickets with your package, so you can travel on other services during the day of your steam train dining experience. As long as your Into The Blue voucher is still valid, you can exchange it using our dedicated on-line exchange portal.

Our small dining table sets for 2 are great when you don't have much space but still want to dine in style and comfort.You are welcome to arrive earlier to explore the station and watch the trains and stay afterwards too. Make yourselves at home in the luxurious surroundings as the kitchen team prepares you a gourmet feast and the friendly waiting staff attend to your every need. They are, however, often allowed in the standard class carriages for normal train journeys, so you can still enjoy a day out with the steam trains in many cases, just not a specific steam train lunch or dinner trip.

Available at venues across the UK, eat out in style with that special someone, no matter what the occasion. In general, on dining experiences you'll be too busy enjoying your sit-down meal to get off at any intermediate stations you may pass through on your journey. And as we've already made sure each set is perfectly coordinated, you won't have to spend time looking for matching dining tables or dining chairs. It's worth noting though, that some heritage railways don't accept children under the age of five in their dining cars.So if you book for two, you will be allocated a table for two, but on some occasions, you may be required to share a table for four.
