Yes, Deutsche Bahn (DB) trains, particularly the high-speed Intercity Express (ICE) and Intercity (IC) models, feature robust on-board catering options. In 2026, most ICE trains include a dedicated "Bordrestaurant" for sit-down meals or a "Bordbistro" for quick snacks and beverages. DB has significantly modernized its menu, with over 50% of the offerings being vegetarian or vegan, including plant-based alternatives and organic oat-based products. In First Class, passengers enjoy an at-seat service where staff take orders directly, while Second Class passengers typically visit the bistro or restaurant car. The menu often features seasonal German specialties like lentil stew, currywurst, and various regional desserts. For those in a hurry, smaller regional trains (RB/RE) may not have full kitchens but often feature mobile trolley services or vending machines, ensuring travelers have access to refreshments throughout the German rail network.
