Amtrak ended traditional dining car service on some of its routes east of the Mississippi River. However, many of the scenic, long-distance trains still have a dining car where you can sit and order meals during your rail trip. View the list below to learn more.
Dining Car Routes
- Auto Train
- California Zephyr
- Coast Starlight
- Empire Builder
- Southwest Chief
- Sunset Limited
- Texas Eagle
Note that dining car seating is also available on some routes using the new flexible dining plan, but just as a place to sit for sleeper car passengers (no servers). But if you are looking for the classic Amtrak dining experience with waitstaff, book a ticket on one of the above routes.
