Wingham questions
Is Wingham close to London?
Roughly 59 miles from the centre of London.
Which station is closest to Wingham?
Adisham station, about 2.3 miles south of the centre.
Can you serve in the cold?
The van copes fine. Plan cover and lighting for the queue.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can you cook in the rain?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Very soft ground can be a problem, so plan a back-up spot on a hard surface.

Yes, it is a popular stall. Send us the details.

We do. Wingham is one of the places we cover. Tell us your date and we will check availability.
