Cream tea served in a dining carriage aboard the Mendip Belle on selected steam train dates at East Somerset Railway.

Cream Tea on The Mendip Belle is a dining experience aboard East Somerset Railway's heritage dining carriage, with cream tea served while the steam train runs its route from Cranmore. It's one of several dining options on the line alongside the standard timetable services, so it suits anyone wanting a bit of a treat with their train ride rather than just a straightforward journey. It runs on selected dates between October 2026 and June 2027, fitting around the railway's normal steam train timetable (trains depart at 11.00, 12.30, 14.00 and 15.30 on running days). Check the East Somerset Railway timetable calendar for the specific dates this is on, as it doesn't run every day.
