Eurostar has inked a deal with supermarket chain Waitrose to supply on-board refreshments to standard class passengers between London and mainland Europe.

The new menu, which is available from today, includes British favourites like chicken tikka masala and a selection of continental dishes.

The move is Waitrose’s first major move into the European market.

Waitrose business to business director David Morton said: “This is a very exciting opportunity for us to work with such a prestigious brand, which shares our commitment to quality and service.

“To be the first food brand that Eurostar’s customers experience when they are visiting Britain is tremendously powerful as we seek to expand our presence within Northern Europe.”

Julian Welham, head of on-board services at Eurostar, said: “The on-board dining experience is an integral part of our passengers’ travel experience, and our new partnership with Waitrose will bring our customers the highest quality refreshments during their journey.”
