Savour local flavours along with the views
With locally sourced ingredients and recipes, our Scenic Café serves food and drinks that are made to accompany the views.
And with a fully licensed bar, you can sit back and enjoy a world-famous New Zealand wine or a local beer while we do the driving.
Our Scenic Café opens shortly before departure and remains open throughout the day, and into the early evening. Our onboard cafes take credit and debit card payments, but having cash available can be quicker.
Indulgent coffee mornings
Freshly made coffees and teas, fresh scones and sweet treats galore, comfortable seating and sensational scenery. Coffee mornings on our Scenic trains are indulgent, revitalising, and invigorating.
You certainly won't be short of things to talk about or time to enjoy the conversation, so sit back and ease into the day with a nice relaxing breakfast from our onboard café. Don't forget to bring your reusable cup, to help reduce your environmental impact.
A lunch to savour
Savour the sumptuous views while enjoying a freshly prepared lunch or light snack. You can take a seat in our Scenic Café or return to your seat and ease back for a relaxing meal while watching the scenery glide by your window.
Whatever your mood, we have the food to match. And because our Scenic Café is fully licensed, you can also enjoy a glass of local wine or beer with your lunch.
Toast the occasion
