Pullman Dining Car 1906 Princess Ena
Fully renovated and looking resplendent ready for fine dining.
​After 3 years of hard work we are so proud to show how beautiful Princess Ena is looking today.
​She is a very rare Pullman carriage - that last of three that were shipped over from America in 1906.
​​​
We only have one sitting - so you will not be rushed while you dine.  Sitting in our "extremely comfortable" Pullman Chairs - you can eat the way only the privilege did in days gone by.

All items on our menu are made on-site using fresh local ingredients (wherever possible) by our chef.  Who has a wealth of experience and a talent for combining flavours.

If you wish to book a table for two you can now do so online.  For more than two diners - you will need to call 01798 342346 or email info@old-station.co.uk

Please note our restaurant is only open Tuesdays - Saturday at present.

 

 ​​​​

 The seating layout in the carriage is first class tables of two, we can make one table of four, although this can only be requested and cannot be reserved as we are unable to guarantee it will be available on the night. 

Additional tables of four can be accommodated across the aisle.  

We also have a private dining compartment for up to eight guests.

Large groups can be also be accommodated in The Waiting Room please call to discuss options.​

There is a minimum charge to dine in The Waiting Room.
