Food Prep Bars

Food Prep Bars & Assembly Stations

Food prep bars help organise toppings and ingredients so you can build plates without crossing the kitchen. You choose GN pan size, chilled or ambient wells, and whether you need storage underneath. A proper bar cuts walking time and keeps portion sizes consistent because everything sits in the same place every shift. The thing is, layout matters more than most operators realise. Staff reach across each other if wells are in the wrong order. Containers get knocked over. You lose rhythm when service gets busy. The well sequence should match how you actually build dishes on a Friday night, not how it looks in a brochure.

Trade Insight

Problems can happen when condensation drips onto ingredients if you buy a food prep bar without proper drainage. Wells need to be sealed properly, or cross-contamination spreads. Staff tend to overload wells thinking extra capacity means fewer trips. Temperature drops immediately. Load only 75% of rated capacity. Health inspection requires temperature logs so pick a model where you can check the reading without opening the unit.
