What’s the nearest station to Felbridge?
The closest is East Grinstead station, roughly 1.6 miles away.

About 25 miles from central London.
Is everything cooked fresh?
Yes, always. We fry to order in the van at your venue, then handed over hot from the hatch.

Somewhere suitable to park, with permission. Tell us whether there is power or water nearby and we’ll confirm the rest.
