When Jason Westphal started his food-delivery service Waiter With Wheels in 2014, there was nothing like it in the area.

The concept of third-party delivery existed in large cities, but Uber Eats, DoorDash and Favor had no presence in Georgetown.

The big-name services have been in the market about two years now, Westphal said.

“Winter was our best time; it seemed like people just Googled ‘restaurant delivery’ and discovered us,” he said. “After every winter we’d have grown and added about 25% more business. Then when the competition came it went from 25% to maybe 5% growth.”

He said though it maintained business, the growth was at a much slower rate.

“I could just tell the pieces of the pie were getting cut out,” he said. “But it feels like there’s still enough of the pie to go around, especially now.”

When Williamson County called for the stay-at-home order March 24, within 48 hours orders had increased about 25%, Westphal said. Through April there were 40%-50% more orders coming in compared to pre-coronavirus, and that number has stayed steady, he said. Originally the staff consisted of 12-15 drivers, but five more have been hired since the pandemic began.

Westphal said though local restaurants might not thrive, he is optimistic they will survive based on the frequency of orders he sees go through.

Westphal said he hopes the ongoing message to support local restaurants will also mean residents choose their local delivery service.

“By ordering from my service, you’re still seeing people that are from your community, and the dollars go to your community,” he said.

Some of Waiter With Wheels' regular customers are elderly and most at risk, so they are not leaving their homes at all. Westphal said he hopes it brings them a little joy to see familiar faces delivering their meals during this time.
