What happens on the day
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. By late September, sunset in Shorthampton comes at roughly 7:10pm, so margaritas after that will be served under lights. In late May, it stays light until about 9:00pm.

DIY taco night versus a caterer
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and handles allergen information for you.
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather enjoy the party, let us serve.
