Both have special Music Train menus which you can download from the MidCheshire website. The menus have a selection of the best that each pub has to offer - ranging from sandwiches and baguettes to main dishes and puddings. It helps if you can order in advance or from the train you will get your food more quickly once you get to the pub just tell the bar staff which table you are at.
