Expert Review and  Insights

The Olympia Café range consistently nails the balance between style and  substance, and  these red saucers are a prime example. The red isn't just a flat colour; it has a depth that looks fantastic under café lighting. They feel reassuringly solid in your hand, and  the chip-resistant edge is a genuinely practical feature that busy venues will appreciate over time.

  • Top-Notch Durability: The rolled edges are a real-world benefit, significantly cutting down on chipping during busy service.
  • Limited Pairing: The 37mm inner circle is quite specific, so check your espresso cup base diameter.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Corner Perk, a bustling café in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, was looking to refresh its image. Their old, plain white saucers were constantly getting chipped and  looked tired, failing to match the café's vibrant atmosphere and  quality coffee.

"These red saucers immediately lifted the look of our entire coffee service. They're incredibly tough—we've barely had to replace any—and they just feel so much more premium. Our regulars noticed the upgrade straight away."

Robert Davies – Owner, The Corner Perk

By switching to the Olympia GK085 saucers, the café significantly reduced its monthly spend on replacement crockery and  enhanced its visual branding.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, give all saucers a thorough wash in warm, soapy water or a dishwasher cycle to remove any dust from manufacturing or transit.
  • Carefully inspect each saucer for any signs of damage that may have occurred during shipping before putting them into service.
  • Pair them with a compatible cup to ensure a snug, stable fit. The unglazed foot is designed for stability when stacked.

Keeping It Going

  • When loading into a dishwasher, stack them carefully in the rack to avoid them knocking against each other during the wash cycle.
  • Although oven-safe, avoid extreme thermal shock. Don't take a saucer from a hot oven and  plunge it into cold water.
  • Regularly check the unglazed foot on the base, as it can occasionally trap dirt. A quick scrub will keep it clean and  grippy.
  • Stack them neatly on a level surface to prevent toppling and  potential breakage.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Saucers

Not sure what fits best for your setup? Choosing the right commercial dishware is about more than just looks. Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

Stoneware like this offers a fantastic, rustic feel with excellent durability and  heat retention, making it a workhorse for busy venues.

Check the Fit

Make sure the saucer's inner indent matches your cup's base diameter. A wobbly cup leads to spills and  looks unprofessional.

Prioritise Durability

Features like rolled edges and  a fully vitrified body are not just jargon; they are your best defence against chips and  cracks, saving you money.

Consider Stackability

In a commercial kitchen, space is gold. Look for features like an unglazed foot that helps saucers stack securely and  safely.

Style and  Colour

Crockery is part of your brand's story. Choose a colour and  style that complements your decor and  the experience you want to create for customers.

For decades, Olympia has been a trusted name in professional catering, known for creating products that masterfully blend aesthetic appeal with workhorse functionality.

Why a Rolled Edge Makes All the Difference

You've probably seen 'soft rolled edges' mentioned, but what does it actually mean for your business? It's a simple but incredibly effective design feature where the rim of the saucer is thickened and  rounded. This reinforcement makes the edge, which is the most vulnerable part of any plate or saucer, far more resistant to chipping from everyday impacts.

Think of it like the reinforced corners on a high-quality suitcase. It’s a small detail designed to absorb the knocks and  bumps of a busy life—whether that’s being stacked quickly, loaded into a dishwasher, or accidentally tapped by a customer. This simple feature means your commercial espresso saucers last longer, look better, and  save you the cost and  hassle of constant replacements.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Independent Coffee Shops: Perfect for creating a signature look and  serving up delicious espressos with a memorable pop of colour.
  • Boutique Hotels: Ideal for elevating the in-room coffee service or adding a touch of luxury to the breakfast buffet.
  • Modern Bistros: Use them for post-dinner espressos or even to serve small, delicate desserts or an amuse-bouche.
  • Corporate Break Rooms: A smart, durable choice for high-traffic staff canteens, ensuring a professional and  tidy coffee station.
