Does the VR night train have a restaurant car, and when is it open?
Food and drink on VR night trains.
Short answer
VR says all its night trains have a restaurant car that serves until 2 a.m. and reopens at 4 a.m., and it does not take table reservations. You can also order selected meals to your cabin when you buy the ticket or by adding them to your booking at least five days before departure. Breakfast to the cabin is pre-ordered on vr.fi. You can pay in cash in the restaurant car, but the sales trolley only accepts cards. Families can bring children's food to the restaurant car to be heated.
Why
- Open until 2 a.m. and again from 4 a.m.
- Cabin meals must be ordered at least 5 days ahead.
- Cash is accepted in the restaurant car.
Details
VR says the train's tap water is not drinkable and should not be used for brushing teeth, so bring your own water.
Tip
Each sleeper cabin has a 0.35 litre water bottle per berth, so bring more for the night.
What may differ
VR says you can buy more water in the restaurant car.
Common misconception
The night train restaurant car is open all night.
What actually happens
It closes at 2 a.m. and reopens at 4 a.m.
