Acela Dining

At-Seat Meals

Exclusive to First-Class Passengers

We look forward to welcoming you in Acela First Class. Once onboard, you'll enjoy complimentary at-seat meal and beverage service provided by our onboard staff of First Class attendants. Selections include freshly prepared chef inspired entrees as well as alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

New Spring & Summer Dishes Exclusive to Acela First Class

Amtrak is proud to extend our partnership with visionary restaurateur Stephen Starr, continuing to bring onboard his renowned, delectable cuisine made from simple, fresh ingredients. Starting this spring and through summer, customers will enjoy a new rotating selection of signature dishes onboard from iconic STARR restaurants such as Buddakan, PARC and the El Vez.

Cafe Acela

Open to All Acela Passengers

Great food is hard to find when you're rushing to catch your train. Cafe Acela is open on all departures and offers fresh, high-quality food offerings to help make your trip aboard more enjoyable.

For breakfast, try a fresh croissant with your coffee, or opt for a heartier breakfast sandwich. For lunch and dinner, choose between a selection of sandwiches and salads — or pair a cheese or charcuterie tray with one of our many wine selections for happy hour. Our fresh options are delivered to Amtrak daily from regional partners and are sure to satisfy a wide range of tastes.

Acela Cart Service

Temporarily Unavailable

We look forward to once again offering the option to purchase a selection of food and beverages at your seat with our Acela Cart Service next year.

Stay comfortable in your seat and enjoy a bite to eat. Business Class customers will have the ability to purchase popular food items, wine by the glass, beer and other alcoholic beverages directly form a roving cart.
