The bar carriage will have a selection of ales from local breweries and ciders from across Kent and the surrounding counties; regular breweries include Westerham, Harvey's, Pig & Porter.
Special beers selected from other parts of the United Kingdom, many of which are not usually seen in Kent, will also be available. The bar carriage will also have a selection of hot beverages, soft drinks and snacks to purchase during the journey.
