Hospitality Connect lists 750 drinkware products for restaurants, bars, cafes, hotels and function venues. The range covers tumblers, wine glasses, cocktail glasses, champagne glasses and beer glasses, from Bormioli Rocco, Stolzle and JAB.
Glass choice follows the drink and the venue. Tumblers are the workhorse of the floor, used for water, spirits and soft drink, and they take the most handling, so durability matters more than delicacy. Wine glasses are chosen by bowl shape and capacity, since the bowl controls how the wine opens up. Champagne glasses hold a narrow bowl to keep the bead. Beer glasses follow the pour size and the style being served. Order in full cartons and keep spare cover of the highest-turnover shapes, because glassware breakage is constant on a busy floor.
