Experience a First Class adventure for food lovers with Transport for Wales

Planning a getaway means one thing for food lovers: carefully plotting where to eat and drink – and savouring every delicious moment. Why not begin your trip on the same note? Book a first-class ticket on selected Transport for Wales (TfW) lines and start the good times from the second you leave the station with its premium on-board dining experience.

Fantasise about the glamour of old-school dining carriages? TfW First Class is the contemporary answer. Its expert chefs create classic dishes to enjoy from the comfort of your seat: think slow-cooked Welsh lamb or chicken supreme with Caerphilly cheese sauce. Select your favourite and simply order via QR code or speak to your friendly customer service host. Plus: light refreshments are complimentary. What’s better than unwinding with a cup of tea, a great view and a biscuit or two?

TfW chefs take inspiration from Wales’ abundant larder and heritage ingredients to create seasonally changing menus – and TfW itself is committed to using local produce wherever it can. First-class travellers can experience a taste of Wales as their train rolls through the countryside, from Pembrokeshire potatoes to Welsh cheeses such as Perl Wen and Black Bomber. These shorter supply chains are more sustainable and mean talented Welsh suppliers are being supported, too. Look out for weekly specials from the chefs, as well – an exciting new dish to try sure helps to take the sting out of the journey home from a holiday…

Travelling for business rather than pleasure? All the more reason to fuel up and recharge ahead of that presentation – or reward yourself on the return journey for a job well done. Free WiFi and a guaranteed plug socket for each TfW First Class passenger make staying connected (or relaxing with a podcast) a promise. And did we mention the extra legroom and wider-than-usual seats…?

Whether you’re planning a city stay or seaside escape this summer, book a first-class TfW ticket and arrive refreshed and satisfied – all for a reasonable price. That’s TfW First Class.

First-class dining is available on TfW’s Premier Service between Cardiff and Manchester and Cardiff and Holyhead for an additional cost (from two courses for £21.95). Find out more about Transport for Wales First Class.
