Hi all,

Does anyone know if/when Avanti West Coast will change to a summer menu in first class?

Thank you in advance.

On the Avanti website it's currently shown as:

'Spring Monday - Friday menu: From March 2024'

It doesn't ever change on a consistent date.

In 2022, it changed on 4 July for Voyagers, but seemingly on 17 June for Pendolinos.
In 2023, the Spring menu was originally planned to last until 12 May for both units, but in reality the Summer menu took over on 19 June.

I thought Avanti only changed their menu twice a year , I may be wrong

Oh, perhaps they do. I assumed there were separate spring and summer menus because I didn't really expect them to change to the summer menu in March...

Maybe they've changed it around this year.

Thank you for the replies. I decided to contact Avanti to find out when the menu changes for the benefit of anyone reading this thread at a later date. The current menu is Spring and Summer (I didn't know that - I thought it was Spring only, hence my post as due to travel in July) and will be in place for a while yet. They didn't give a date for the next menu change but I would suggest September at the earliest.

A new menu is now is now up as from 13 July - just in time for our journey from Crewe to Edinburgh today departing 1509.

We were allowed to choose anything from the 'Rest of the Day' section, and combined items from the 'Lighter Choices' and 'Larger Plates'.

And just to baffle 99% of passengers, there is an 'Evero' menu up, which is the same as the Voyager one.
