What Can I Expect
Enjoy a Sunday lunch with a difference onboard our steam trains in Somerset, where good food and fantastic scenery come together to make for an unforgettable afternoon under the power of steam. Taking in the beautiful East Somerset Railway line, you will tuck into a three-course culinary treat that is the perfect complement to this wonderful rail journey.
Steam train rides are perennially popular and this Somerset treat is no different. Nothing beats partaking in a relaxed Sunday lunch as you watch the tranquil countryside go by from your comfortable seat in the beautifully restored carriage. Revel in plush surroundings of the Mendip Belle Wine and Dine train, where the ambiance is most definitely 'yesteryear glamour', with each table adorned with crisp white linen tablecloths, a quaint table lamp and heavy-weight curtains dressing the panoramic windows.
As you pull out of Cranmore station, your Somerset steam train luncheon experience will begin with a choice of light starter, before you proceed to the main course - a hearty meat or vegetarian main course. Followed by a dessert and after-dinner coffee and mints, this is truly a delicious treat to savour. Vegetarian options are available across all courses where applicable and alternative drinks are also on offer. The Belle train offers a well stocked bar, so if you fancy raising a glass in celebration then there's sure to be a bottle on board to suit your tastes.
Your steam train journey proceeds down the Somerset line to Mendip Vale Station, where your outbound journey terminates and you'll have a chance to watch from the platform as the steam locomotive turns and heads to the opposite end of the carriages to link up in preparation for your return. The entire round trip lasts approximately two hours, giving you plenty of time to enjoy your meal in comfort and style.
This luxurious ride-and-dine steam train luncheon in Somerset is an unusual way to spend your Sunday and makes a fantastic meal out for families, groups of friends, or couples looking for a romantic weekend treat. Combining delicious food and elegant transport, make your Sunday lunch a meal to remember with an iconic journey on this stylish steam train in Somerset's rolling Mendip hills.

This was a 70th Birthday treat from my Daughter,it was a wonderful day out,especially being a steam train enthusiast,the food was excellent & served quickly & hot,I thought a nice touch was that pre ordered drinks were waiting on the table when we arrived,the staff were friendly & helpful,you do travel up & down the line twice so that all courses can be served due to the distance end to end,I thought it made it all the more enjoyable,just like stopping at stations as normal,East Somerset Railway is well signposted & easy to find with lots of parking,it was a lovely trip down memory lane,I can't wait for a return visit with my other Daughter & Grandchildren,I would highly recommend this experience,thank you.

We had a lovely Sunday lunch on the Mendip Belle. It was a well organised trip and the people were very helpful and courteous.
It was a touch of nostalgia to ride on a steam train and although the journey was short, it was enjoyed. Each individual course was well timed with the journeys when the engine was moved to the other end of the train.
It was a beautiful experience.

We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The meal was excellent and well presented. We were aware that the train would run up and down the line twice during the meal and the serving of the meal was very well planned to coincide with stops while the engine was moved to the other end of the train.

We enjoyed the trip and had a great experience, mainly thanks to good weather and our fellow travellers.. As pointed out in an earlier review the route is very short, two trips to and from the station with two courses of the lunch at the same stop. We were rather puzzled as to why our pre-ordered drinks were not readily available ( 20 minute plus wait) and why we had to be there at 11.45 when the train didn't board until 12.10. However, it was still a good day out.

It was fantastic to see the Steam engine, and that was our main concern, however the information as to what was going on wasn't available. It would have been nice to be told that the train moves very slowly along a very short track for two and half hours whilst lunch is served. The meal was ok, starter was lovely but the Yorkshire puddings were soggy, better left off really, dessert was lovely too, all in all we had a lovely trip, it would just have been nice to know what form the trip was going to take.

We had a most enjoyable day on the East Somerset Railway. We were allowed to explore everywhere and the volunteer staff were, without exception, most friendly and helpful.

Mr. Philip Hopkins
What a fantastic day. We arrived early and enjoyed a leisurely walk along the platform, taking in the station atmosphere and beautiful trains. We browsed in the model shop purchasing a much wanted n gauge engine. Then came the train ride and scrumptious lunch. It was truly superb from beginning to end and we were only sorry when the time came for us to disembark. The food, service and whole experience was unforgettable and one we hope to repeat again-definitely.

For a Sunday lunch experience with a difference this trip was a great success. For the opportunity to experience something of the age of steam railways, this is not the place to be. Investment in further track is necessary if East Somerset Railway is going to be competative in this market place. The railway folk you chatted with were very helpful and very knowledgable. They just lack the basic ingredients of the 21st century tourist attraction.

Generally a very pleasant experience. Main course of Sunday lunch rather disappointing (vegetarian option served with no gravy/sauce; roast beef somewhat overcooked & kept hot for at least an hour so rather dry. Why serve - clearly imported - parsnips & swede in August when there is so much local, seasonal veg available?). Staff were all very pleasant, helpful & attentive (though their own communication could have been better - had to query our menu choice twice).

We are not train fanatics but just fancied something different to do. This is a journey backwards and forwards down a short section of track but more importantly its a journey back in time to a more peaceful age. The chuff of the trains and the quality of the rolling stock take you back to the 1950's. The food was perfectly acceptable and the staff really friendly.
The place is set in lovely countryside and if you want an afternoon away from the madding crowd here it is
It was absolutely charming Well done all concerned.

Sunday lunch was disappointing, the carrots and swede was overcooked and looked like dishwater, there was only a teaspoon size of broccali, I left it, worse Sunday lunch I have ever had. The staff worked very hard and were very friendly. There was a lot of time with the train stood still as the 'rail-line' is only a short one for such a long meal. In all I consider this 'present' from my husband a waste of time, however the drive down to Somerset was very pretty.

Really enjoyed our outing on the steam train. Overall the food was good but roast was a little dry and they did forget about 2 of us out of 4 on our table as i had to ask.
The red wine and cheese and biscuits were just perfect!
The waitresses were fine but could have been more knowledgable about where the train was going when asked.
Over all though, good time, nice food and a different experience.
