Top Picks for Long-Distance Meals on Amtrak

There’s nothing worse than feeling “hangry“ when you’re on the move. So, whether you’re heading home, visiting a friend, or going on a spontaneous weekend trip by train, you’ve got to eat.

Luckily, Amtrak has your cravings covered.

You can beat your stomach growls with breakfast, lunch, dinner and, of course, dessert across any of the long-distance train rides.

Plus, the little ones can choose from a children’s menu that features kid-friendly food like hot dogs, pizza and chicken tenders. And since we change our menu seasonally, you can always taste something different.
