A great experience! - The food and service were very good. The dining conditions exceptionally clean and comfortable. The use of locally sourced food and beverages is commendable. Parking at the Drysdale station is a little scarce and the area provided should be sealed. Unfortunately, the trip from and to Melbourne metro by private car is marred in by heavy traffic and an overnight stay beforehand would be recommended. Otherwise, a great experience.

You have to do this - What an amazing experience, I booked first class as a treat for my elderly father, over from Adelaide, and I to enjoy. It was a perfect blissful three hours. I loved that everything on the five course degustation menu, food and wine, was locally sourced and the provenance explained. Soo delicious, our taste buds were dancing, and the servings generous. Plus this is a local family run business, so worth supporting. The service from all the crew is lovely, and Georgia looked after us both faultlessly. My dad is still in awe of this experience, and so am I.

Fantastic day out - Everything about our trip on the Q Train on 29 April was fantastic. The staff who greeted us were welcoming and our server Montana was knowledgeable, personable and a joy to meet. The first class compartment made us feel very special and provided a relaxed atmosphere to enjoy the wonderful wildlife you see along the journey. The 5 course menu was superb. I would go back again just to have the creme brulee. If I could give 11/10 I would.

Q Train memory - The Q Train is a unique experience, it was well worth doing the 1st class Dining. Now, if you just enjoy a slow ride to Queenscliff with the excellence of wonderful LOCAL produce, then this is something I’d recommend.

So much fun. - This was fun! The train moved slowly so we had time to enjoy the countryside. The meal was sooooo much better than I imagined. The staff were gorgeous and helpful. It was relaxing, and we got a short time to stretch and stroll at Queenscliffe.
