Review The Blue Train - Paraparaumu

Great place to have a drink and to enjoy a chat while playing chess kn Wednesdays. Good music and a very special atmosphere.

Another great night at The Blue Train. Never disappoints!

Perfect venue for a birthday party, we booked the Blue Train on a Sunday for a kids birthday lunch. Chris was a fantastic host and made delicious pizzas for our family and friends. Plenty of room inside the carriage and on the deck. Great place for all ages, we loved the blue train!

We had a fantastic evening last Saturday at the Blue Train. Chris organised a pie, mash and liqueur night for St George's day. We had entertainment, a quiz, cockney walking competition, beer tasting and a right old good time speaking cockney. So next time you're down at the rub-a-dub-dub (pub) get yourself a pig's ear (beer) and enjoy the apples and rice lilley skinner! (nice dinner), and a lot of laughing! Looking forward to next time we visit The Blue Train ☺

Went down to meet Chris to finalize details for an event I'm planning in the near future. I was pleasantly surprised by how great the decor of the carriages were. Thought they would be a little crowded but that is not the case, surprisingly there is plenty of room. The Wife and I had his Smoko On The Loco Morning Tea and we were most impressed. Enjoyed Chris's friendly banter and the service was second to none. Nice atmosphere too. If you want to go somewhere a little different, you really can't do better than The Blue Train. Give Chris a call. Highly Recommended!!

We had a wonderful evening at the Blue Train last night! Our group of 10 visited France with a delicious menu, comprising French onion soup, 'Blanquette' of chicken in cream sauce, served on a bed of braised rice and homemade creme brulee for dessert (which was to die for!!). Special thanks to our delightful waitresses for the evening - Emma and Charlotte who ensured we had everything we needed. Thanks to Chris for a great meal and charming patter along the way :0).

Second time here and both times been an absolute pleasure. Good food in a unique place. 5 piece jazz band on the deck on a warm spring evening with a Pimm's - Chris is a great host and really knows how to look after his guests.

Unique rail carriage venue. Great food & friendly service & when the hard work in the kitchen carriage is done don't miss being entertained by Chris with his stories, impersonations, accents & humour!

Irish evening was a blast, great fun awesome food and good selection of beers and wine. Big atmosphere and wonderful hosts... Thanks Chris and Kate for a superb evening 😀

Set within a TRAIN Carriage. A mishmash of comfortable homey furniture and dinnerwares. Great atmosphere. Controller Chris and his Conductors are really attentative to their passengers. Different style of food.. But goes with the styles
