Imagine a restaurant where the menu is a locally sourced, delicious creation by an award-winning chef with silver service. Now imagine all of this while taking in hundreds of miles of the most beautiful countryside and coastline in the British Isles.
Sounds like the ultimate pop-up experience, doesn’t it? If First Great Western’s Pullman restaurant didn’t already exist, someone would probably be inventing it right now. While all other train companies have phased out their restaurant cars, the Pullman has refined this classic experience to appeal to modern tastes. Collaborating with The Seahorse’s celebrated chef Mitch Tonks, First Great Western has created an exquisite British menu packed with the finest, freshest produce that the western region has to offer. All accompanied by the most quaffable wine list on rails, of course.
First Great Western has also expanded its timetable to 12 daily services to and from London Paddington, Swansea, Plymouth and Penzance. Now even more passengers have the chance to dine in style, and food lovers everywhere can discover a new culinary destination. For menus and reservations, visit fgw.co.uk/Pullman
