Sit Back, Relax, and Savour: LNER Reveals New Onboard Menus

Customers travelling in both First Class and Standard will be able to enjoy a selection of locally sourced produce provided by suppliers along the LNER route.

The new First Class menus are being introduced from today (Wednesday 20 May 2026), with new choices across the Dish, chef-prepared Signature, and All Day options.

Customers travelling on Signature services can treat themselves to delicious chicken supreme, served with golden scalloped potatoes and Tenderstem broccoli in a white wine sauce. Other standout items include a warm, cheesy Mumbai chicken toastie, and a rich smoky bean pasta, which is available on selected services.

Lighter lunch or evening options available on all First Class journeys include tuna, butter bean and egg salad, and a falafel and sweetcorn hummus wrap.

Desserts have been updated too – with a special strawberry and lime pot available across all services, and a tangy passionfruit and lemon tart onboard services with the Signature menu.

Breakfast and brunch options now feature honey and red cherry overnight oats, while firm favourites, the Full LNER and Full Veggie LNER breakfasts, remain on the Signature menu.

Sara Jenson, Hospitality Manager at LNER, said:

We’re always looking to elevate the onboard experience for our customers, and our new First Class and Café Bar menus do just that. We want every journey with LNER to feel special, and great, locally sourced food and drink play a big part in delivering our memorable service. We’re proud to reveal these new changes and offer a range of delicious dishes and refreshments for our customers to enjoy.

While customers travelling in First can enjoy a complimentary catering service, customers in Standard can order refreshments direct to their seat via a QR code, using the ‘Let’s Eat At Your Seat’ service.

Instead of buying before boarding, the onboard Café Bar offers a variety of options, from a new addition of a cheeseburger, or the fully vegan coronation chickpea and onion bhaji sandwich, along with a variety of sweet treats. Combination offers are available too, including the Bakery Deal and the classic Meal Deal.

A brand-new kids Eleanor activity book will help keep younger travellers entertained. It is packed with games, stickers, and activities for families to enjoy together.

Full details of the new First Class and Café Bar menus can be found here. Customers travelling in First will be advised of the menu served on their selected service when booking a ticket on the LNER App or website.
