All Aboard for Railway Partnership

Mackie’s are pleased to have extended their partnership with Caledonian Sleeper by providing mini tubs of Mackie’s ice cream in their Euston Station lounge to passengers ahead of their journey on the train.

Available to all Caledonian Double En-suite and Club En-suite guests from 21 July 2024, this addition to their lounge offering extends the Mackie’s relationship, having provided Mackie’s 35g chocolate bars since 2022 on their trains.

Kathryn Darbandi, Managing Director at Caledonian Sleeper, said “Thanks to Mackie’s, our guests have been enjoying a sweet taste of Scotland onboard for a number of years, with Mackie’s chocolate available onboard.

“It’s fantastic that we are able to grow this partnership with Mackie’s.”

Prior to travel, users of the lounge can now treat themselves to an ice cream, choosing from Mackie’s five 120ml tub flavours: Traditional, Honeycomb, Strawberry, Mint, and Chocolate.

Fittingly launched on National Ice Cream Day, this is the first time ice cream has been available to guests in the lounge. In celebration of the partnership, and to commemorate the national day, all passengers traveling on the day received a complimentary mini tub of Mackie’s ice cream, handed out from a specially designed ice cream trike on the platform.

Stuart Common, Managing Director at Mackie’s of Scotland, said: “Seeing Mackie’s bars of chocolate touring the UK has been fantastic, and we’re delighted to be providing a further taste of Scotland at the Euston Station lounge and celebrate Mackie’s continuing partnership with Caledonian Sleeper.”

This addition to the Caledonian Sleeper offering came on the same day that Mackie’s and Caledonian Sleeper launched it’s Golden Ticket competition. For the third year running, the two businesses have again teamed up to grant one lucky winner and their plus one an unforgettable journey aboard the sleeper service, plus a year’s supply of Mackie’s ice cream and chocolate.
