LNER has announced that they have introduced a new onboard menu for First Class passengers and a new and improved range of hot dishes from the Let’s Eat Café Bar.

The new menu has been created by a team of LNER Hero Chefs.

The Hero Chefs had a desire to use produce sourced from suppliers along LNER’s route.

The chefs worked alongside established local suppliers building new relationships with the likes of Beckleberry’s in Newcastle.

Utilizing some of the latest food trends, the menu has been completely renewed to include:

  • Holy Moly breakfast avocado on toast served with a poached egg and fresh tomato (vegetarian)
  • Spinach, pea and sweet potato curry and rice (vegan)
  • Brined chicken supreme with butter beans, chorizo and green beans
  • Orkney white and Shropshire blue served with celery sticks, Hop on Board ale & apricot chutney and Carr’s water biscuits

Alternatively in Standard four hot options from the Let’s Eat Café Bar are offered, to provide hot food to all customers.

What did the officials say?

Les Brearley who is one of the Hero Chefs and has worked for LNER for 18 years said:

“Developing a menu to be both cooked from fresh and served on board was a real challenge but I’m really happy with all the dishes we’ve created.

“We wanted to ensure that it reflected current food trends and include more vegetarian and vegan options. It has been a great team effort and I’ve really enjoyed getting out and meeting the suppliers along our route.”

Claire Ansley, Customer Experience Director at LNER, said:

“The Hero Chefs initiative was born out of a desire to bring our dishes back in house with our on board chefs taking the lead.

“The Hero Chefs initiative gives customers freshly prepared food that looks and tastes great, and we will continue to explore how we can offer the best on board dining experience in the industry.”
