Fabulous Afternoon

Sally Coulson 30 August 2026

From the delicious food and matching wines from local suppliers, to the delightful and knowledgeable staff, this experience cannot be faulted. The intimate settings for two make this a truly wonderful outing for a special occasion, or just because you can. I could not recommend this experience more highly.

True to the red balloon reputation, our experience with the Q train was amazing. This was a voucher from our kids and we finally got to use it. The Q train staff are so welcoming and friendly. Their knowledge of the food and wine was very enjoyable. And tasted fantastic. We went on a Monday and booked nearby walking from the accommodation, to throughly enjoy a great present .

Perfection at its best…

Sara 3 July 2026

The fusion of train, five star food and wine, and amazing people looking after us was just perfect. Remy showed us to our table and popped in to ensure all was cleared and wonderful. Shalia presented the wines and dishes, she was just amazing. Vincent introduced himself and spoke about the dishes and we discovered he was responsible for the delicious desert. We were met by everyone and farewelled at the end. We felt very special. There was an opportunity to buy some of the wines as we left. We will certainly return and hopefully with family next time. Peter and I had the 1st Class experience and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The carriage with many tables will certainly accommodate others we would like to share the experience with. Thank you so much to everyone who made its Q Train moment perfect… from Sara and Peter
