This blog post is sponsored by Gordon Food Service

Whether you’re opening a new concept, upgrading old equipment, or trying to streamline operations, the tools you choose for your restaurant can make or break your service. From bar to back-of-house, investing in the right commercial equipment enhances efficiency, boosts staff morale, and enables you to deliver a consistent guest experience, day after day.

Good equipment isn’t just about performance; it’s about peace of mind, smoother service, and long-term savings. Let’s break down the essentials every hardworking kitchen and bar should consider.

Bar Equipment

Keep the drinks flowing with high-quality equipment

When happy hour hits, your bar should run like a machine. The right equipment ensures your bartenders can focus on what they do best—serving up drinks quickly and consistently.

Why it matters:

  • Keeps service moving, even during rushes

  • Minimizes downtime and manual restocking

  • Improves guest experience with cold, clean drinks

Back Bar Refrigerators

Keep beer, wine, and mixed drinks cold and conveniently close so bartenders can quickly serve beverages without having to run to the kitchen. Back bar refrigerators fit neatly under the bar, feature easy-to-open glass swing doors, and LED lighting, providing bartenders with a more efficient way to serve drinks during crunch time.

Under-the-Counter Dishwashers

When the drinks are flowing, it’s crucial to keep clean glassware and barware on hand. Under-the-counter dishwashers are a fast, efficient way to clean and sanitize large volumes of dirty drinkware. Plus, they keep bartenders’ hands free to keep the cocktails coming.


Kitchen Equipment

Increase kitchen output, reduce burnout, and keep quality consistent

A well-equipped kitchen runs more smoothly and efficiently. Whether you’re short on space or scaling up, choosing the right appliances can help reduce chaos, increase productivity, and keep your team focused.

Why it matters:

  • Cuts down time wasted running between stations

  • Reduces food waste through better storage

  • Improves consistency and workflow under pressure

Upright Freezers

Store large quantities of frozen food in a more organized way. Filled with shelves and compartments, upright freezers offer chefs easier access to ingredients while improving inventory control. Plus, they have a smaller footprint than chest freezers, making them ideal for smaller kitchens.

Worktop Coolers

Give your chefs quick access to cold ingredients right in the prep area. By minimizing their need to move around the kitchen to get items, you’ll enhance kitchen workflow and maximize productivity.

Ranges

With their ability to cook, broil, boil, saute, grill, and bake, commercial ranges are a busy

kitchen must-have. Featuring multiple burners and an oven, chefs can cook different dishes at

the same time, making ranges easily the most-used piece of commercial kitchen equipment.
