This Aquatic Food Truck In Washington DC Will Deliver Food Straight To Your Boat

Nauti Foods is DC’s first aquatic food truck offering a unique dining experience on the Potomac River.

Beautiful DC warm weather? Check. Relaxing day on the water, either boating or kayaking? Check. Great food and refreshing drinks? Check! Nauti Foods is DC’s first aquatic food truck and it is everything your summer needs for beautiful days on the Potomac.

Nauti Foods is the brain child of Tammar Berger and Ari Fingeroth, who created the idea after a day out on their boat on the Potomac. Tammar questioned "Why isn’t there somewhere I can buy a popsicle while we’re on the water?"

The next year after many permits and regulations were passed, they launched the Nauti Boat, a reconfigured 1994 pontoon boat in 2014.

Nauti Foods has been a hit ever since its launch. It’s licensed to serve like a food truck but on the water. And they also serve beer.

Nauti Foods carries a rotating menu of local foods and beverages from local restaurants.

You can enjoy coffees and bagels from Bullfrog Bagels.

Or a variety of popsicles and ice cream treats and also beer from local breweries.

Nauti Foods has also started their own signature items, including the fresh off the grill Nauti Dog and chocolate covered frozen bananas, the Nauti Monkey.

To order from Nauti Foods, you just simply float, paddle or boat over and make your order. You can sit right next to the boat and chat away as you chow down or you can take your food to go (although that can be difficult on a paddle board!).

Nauti Foods is open in the summer on Fridays from 6pm-8pm and on the weekends from 12-7pm. Be sure to follow them on Facebook and Instagram to find out when they hit the water this summer!

While Nauti Foods is one of the only aquatic food trucks, there are plenty of food trucks on land in DC that you should chase down this summer!
