Note- The following are the standard times for the food service in Vande Bharat Express. Furthermore, a passenger can choose the type of service they want at the time of issuing a ticket. 

About the Catering Service 

Earlier, it was compulsory to avail catering services in Vande Bharat. Now, the Indian Railways has made the services optional. The passengers can now choose whether they want meals in their journey or not, while booking the tickets. 

You can either pre-order your catering service while booking the ticket or you can avail it on board itself. However, the price differs accordingly. If you have pre-booked your meal with the ticket, then it will cost you less than ordering on-board.

For example, if you have pre-booked your breakfast, it will cost you Rs. 155, but if you order it after boarding the train, it will cost you Rs. 205. Therefore, you should always prefer pre-booking your meals.
