Picking a seat on Eurostar

All seats seem to have windows, but don't get too excited, the scenery is minimal,, you'll see... sort of like taking the train through the middle of praires...
All seats have relatively same leg room, it was comfy enough for 2.5 hours. Plus remember you can get up and walk around , go to bar car ( lets call it a concession car because that's whats really there.. ) etc. Bring your own picnic for sure.

When I took the Eurostar last month, I had reserved the four seats (two and two facing each other) with a bigger table in front because there was 4 of us traveling together. I actually found it felt like I had lesser legroom than a regular seat, and I'm only 5'1". So, I'm taking it again in October with a party of 4 and this time I will reserve the regular seats. As for the view, I agree that there wasn't much to look at but from what I remember, the windows all appear to be the same size.

In St-Pancras outside the security check-in there are several food shops, including a Marks & Spencer store to buy the makings for your own meal on the train. Railway food is always expensive.

Thanks everyone. good advice. Is it good to try to get in the higher #'s of the train car so that your closer to the front. i had read it's quite long and so to be closer to the front is better when your getting off. I'm sure these seem like strange questions but Train travel in general is all new to us. Thanks again

Shelly some trains can be very very long, I took a TGV train that took us like 5 minutes it seemed to make it to our car but Eurostars are not really that long, so don't worry about that..( unless you have some mobility problems maybe?)

Hi Shelley. With regard to the view - I like trains and when I booked a ticket on the Eurostar last fall from Paris to London, I chose a forward-facing seat. However, when I actually boarded the train, my seat was facing backwards. I didn't have much of a view. So be aware that even if you request a forward seat, you may not get it.
