One of the biggest perks of booking an Amtrak Roomette in 2026 is that it is a "First Class" experience where all meals are included in the price of your ticket. On long-distance routes like the California Zephyr or Empire Builder, you receive breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the Dining Car. For most of these routes, Amtrak provides "Traditional Dining," which features hot, chef-prepared meals (like steak, salmon, or omelets) and one complimentary alcoholic beverage with dinner. On some shorter eastern routes, they may offer "Flexible Dining," which consists of high-quality pre-packaged hot meals. You also have the option to have your meals delivered directly to your roomette by your attendant if you prefer to dine in private while watching the scenery. In addition to the main meals, roomette passengers have access to unlimited water, coffee, and juice throughout the journey. It is a true all-inclusive experience that significantly offsets the higher cost of the private cabin compared to a standard coach seat.
