Can I bring my own food and drinks on board?

Asked a year ago
Yes, Amtrak permits passengers to bring their own food and drinks on board. Passengers are welcome to bring their own snacks, non-alcoholic beverages, and meals to enjoy during their journey. There are no restrictions on the type of food or drink that can be brought, as long as it does not require heating or refrigeration. Additionally, Amtrak provides onboard food and beverage services, including a café car and dining car on select routes. Passengers are encouraged to make reservations for dining car service in advance. However, for convenience, passengers can also purchase a variety of snacks, meals, and beverages from the onboard food service.
