How the day works

Once service is over, we pack up and leave our area tidy. We agree set-up and pack-down times with you and your venue. At midsummer, it stays light in Ashburnham until about 9:15pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:00pm. In December it is dark by about 3:55pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.

Check our availability for your date.
You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
The spot and the way in are agreed in advance.
We drive in, open the hatch and serve your guests.
After service, we close up and leave the spot clear.
