However, if you really need some sustenance before boarding the train to Tokyo, there are a Starbucks, a kiosk selling bottled drinks, packaged snacks, and reading material; and a couple of Japan's ubiquitous beverage vending machines by the entrance to the platforms.
I believe they end the trolley service for NEX earlier this year, together with selected shinkansen / limited express
