Typically, we limit consumption on board to: Any passengers with large quantities will need to contact a courier service. Although you can bring alcohol with you and we serve alcohol on board, safety is our top priority. So, please drink in moderation.

You are generally permitted to bring and consume your own alcohol on Eurostar trains, but the policy is governed by strict rules of moderation and specific restrictions during certain events. As of 2026, passengers can bring a "reasonable amount" of alcohol for personal consumption, such as a bottle of wine or a few beers. However, Eurostar reserves the right to confiscate alcohol or refuse boarding if a passenger appears intoxicated or behaves in an antisocial manner. There are also frequent "dry trains" or total alcohol bans implemented during high-profile sporting events (like the Six Nations rugby or football matches) and on specific "night" services to prevent disruptions. Unlike airplanes, where you are legally forbidden from drinking your own alcohol, Eurostar allows you to "squeeze in a bottle of bubbly" for the trip. It is important to remember that safety is the priority, and the crew may intervene if your consumption impacts the comfort of fellow travelers.
