This Olympia tray is a real workhorse. It does exactly what it says on the tin, and  it does it well.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Swan Inn, a bustling pub in York, was using a mix of old saucers and  plates to present bills, which looked unprofessional and  often led to coins being dropped. They needed a uniform, durable, and  cost-effective solution to smarten up their service.

"We ordered two dozen of these Olympia trays, and  honestly, it’s tidied up our end-of-meal service no end. They look the part, the staff find them easy to handle, and  they just work. No more chasing dropped change across the floor. A simple fix that made a real difference."

Robert Miller – General Manager, The Swan Inn

The change resulted in a smoother payment process and  staff reported a more professional feel when interacting with customers at the end of their visit.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give the trays a quick wash with warm, soapy water before their first use.
  • Brief your staff on where the trays are stored to ensure they're always used.
  • Decide on a process for returning them to the bar to be cleaned and  stacked.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe clean with a damp cloth and  a mild detergent after each use.
  • For a deeper clean, they are generally safe for a commercial dishwasher, but check a single unit first.
  • Regularly check for any deep scratches or cracks to maintain a professional appearance.
  • Store in a neat stack to prevent them from getting lost or damaged.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Service Tray

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few quick tips to help you choose the right tray for your business.

Material Matters

Plastic is a brilliant all-rounder: durable, lightweight, and  affordable. For a more premium feel, you might consider wood or stainless steel, but they require more maintenance.

Consider the Size

This rectangular tip tray for bars is large enough for a standard bill and  card, but not so big it's clumsy. Think about what you'll be presenting on it. Too small is fiddly, too big is awkward.

Look for a Lip or Recess

A tray with a raised edge or a deep recess, like this one, is essential. It stops coins, cards, and  pens from sliding off when you’re on the move.

Stackability is Key

For any high-volume business, choose trays that stack. It's a non-negotiable feature for keeping your service areas tidy and  organised.

Match Your Style

A simple black tray is discreet and  professional, fitting in anywhere. Consider if you want something that blends in or a tray with a colour or finish that matches your brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this tip tray dishwasher safe?

A: Generally, this type of durable plastic is safe for the top rack of a commercial dishwasher. However, for longevity, a quick wipe with a sanitising cloth is often sufficient and  gentler on the material.

Q: How deep is the recess?

A: The tray features a deep recess specifically designed to securely hold coins, notes, and  payment cards, preventing them from sliding off during transit.

Q: Is the 'Thank you' text printed or engraved?

A: It is engraved into the plastic, meaning it won't rub off or fade over time with cleaning and  regular use.

Q: How many trays can you stack together safely?

A: Thanks to their design, you can easily stack 15-20 trays in a stable, neat pile without them sticking together or toppling over.

Q: Is the plastic flexible or rigid?

A: The plastic is rigid and  robust, designed to feel sturdy in the hand and  resist bending or breaking during normal use.

A: The tray measures 10mm in height, 190mm in width, and  110mm in depth, making it a compact yet practical size.

A: Absolutely. Its durable plastic construction makes it perfect for both indoor and  outdoor service areas.

Q: Does the black finish show a lot of fingerprints?

A: The matte-like finish is quite forgiving and  doesn't show fingerprints as easily as glossy black surfaces, keeping it looking smart during service.

What Customers Are Saying

"Does the job perfectly. We bought 20 for our pub. They're sturdy, stack neatly behind the bar, and  look much better than the random plates we were using before."

Sarah – The Plough, Kent

"A good, solid commercial tip tray black in colour that fits our café's aesthetic. The 'Thank you' is a nice touch. Can get a little scuffed over time but for the price, you can't complain."

Tom C. – Coffee Corner, Manchester

How Smart Stacking Frees Up Your Back Bar

You see 'Stackable' listed as a feature, but what does it really mean for your business? Think about your busiest service time.

The ability to neatly stack ten or twenty of these trays into a single, stable pile that takes up just a few square inches is a huge advantage. It's like turning a messy pile of plates into a tidy tower. This keeps your workspace organised, reduces clutter, and  means your staff can always grab a clean tray instantly without having to search for one. It’s a simple design choice that has a real, practical impact on daily efficiency.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Independent Cafés: An ideal plastic service tray for cafes to present bills and  loyalty cards professionally without a big outlay.
