Docket Holders & Spikes

A docket holder keeps printed food and drink orders visible and in sequence at the kitchen pass or service counter. It stops dockets scattering across a wet bench and lets chefs and baristas work the queue in the order the orders arrived.

A docket rail holds live orders in a row so several tickets can be read at once during service. A receipt spike collects completed dockets on a single point, keeping finished orders together and off the bench until they are reconciled.

A docket rail is normally positioned at the pass, where both kitchen staff and service staff can read it without moving. Footed docket holders sit on the bench without being fixed, so they can be repositioned around the coffee station or counter as needed.

Match the holder to order volume and bench space. A clip rail suits a pass running several tickets at once, while a compact footed holder suits a coffee station with limited room. Consider whether it needs to be moved during service or stay in one place.
