Welcome to The Old Parcels Office

Nestled on the bridge above the platforms, our lovingly restored dining and drinking venue blends the charm of 1884 with modern comforts.

Originally the Midland and Great Northern Railway parcels office, today it’s your go‑to spot for hearty breakfasts, relaxed lunches, and atmospheric evenings, all framed by the hustle and bustle of passing trains
