We recently went here to the Halloween party. The steam train is lovely to ride on and really enjoyed it. However the cafe is not. We ordered bacon rolls and... read more was told they would be 40 minutes until they were ready, we had a coffee which was ok. it was instant coffee you make at home,no filter coffee there, and hot chocolate which was made with water and squirty cream on top with marshmallow's. The hot chocolate was awful and got thrown away. If they made it with milk it would be drinkable. So we went on the train and went back for the rolls later. The bread was soggy and the bacon was like shoe leather. Someone else said they had a sausage bap which was equally as bad. It's a shame as the place would be great with a decent cafe, food and drink etc. a shop that sold better souvenir's and a new coat of paint everywhere.Also the actor's did their best dressed up as Halloween ghost's etc I guess but wasn't very scary. It might also be worth mentioning that instead of doing the 'Time warp' dance for Halloween, Michael Jacksons Thriller would be better.

Great experience, lovely café, little gift shop with plenty of bargains to look through. Great team, clean carriages and fabulous entertainment. Your tickets also allow you to ride the train as many times as you like. Highly recommend.
