Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Feathers Inn, a historic pub in Keswick, Lake District, needed to replace its mismatched and dated barware to better reflect its premium drinks offering. They chose the Olympia Bar Collection sherry glasses to bring a consistent, high-quality feel to their service.
"We serve a lot of vintage port, especially to walkers coming in from the cold. These glasses just feel right. They look brilliant, they're sturdy enough for our bustling bar, and customers have noticed the difference. It's a small change that made a big impact."
Robert Davies – Landlord
The upgrade led to a 15% increase in sales of top-shelf ports and sherries within the first three months.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, wash all glasses in a commercial glasswasher or by hand with a suitable detergent.
- Check your glasswasher rack's height to ensure these 140mm tall glasses fit without obstruction.
- Inspect each glass upon unboxing for any imperfections or damage from transit.
- Designate a specific, safe storage area, preferably on non-slip matting, to reduce breakages.
Keeping It Going
- To maintain clarity, use a glass-specific detergent and rinse aid in your machine.
- Polish with a clean, lint-free microfibre cloth (like a glass cloth) for a perfect, streak-free finish.
- Avoid stacking glasses inside one another during storage as this can cause pressure cracks or scratches.
- Regularly check for small chips or cracks, and remove any damaged glasses from service immediately to ensure safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these glasses made from lead crystal?
A: No, these are made from modern, lead-free crystal, which offers brilliant clarity and strength while being completely safe and commercially viable.
Q: What is the exact diameter of the base?
A: The base has a similar diameter to the rim, around 55mm, providing a stable footing on trays and tables.
Q: Can I buy these glasses individually?
A: These Olympia GF737 port glasses are sold in a convenient pack of six, which is ideal for commercial stocking and offers better value.
Q: What's the benefit of the 'tulip' shape for sherry or port?
A: The curved bowl and slightly narrowed rim help to capture and concentrate the complex aromas of the wine, directing them towards the nose for a fuller tasting experience.
Q: How do these differ from a standard wine glass?
A: Port and sherry glasses are smaller (typically 120-180ml) to suit the smaller serving size and higher alcohol content of fortified wines.
Q: Are they heavy to hold?
A: They have a reassuring weight that signals quality but are perfectly balanced and not overly heavy for comfortable use by both staff and customers.
Q: Will they go cloudy over time in a glasswasher?
A: With correct dosing of detergent and rinse aid, high-quality crystal like this is resistant to clouding and will maintain its sparkle through many wash cycles.
Q: Is the rim beaded or cut?
A: The rim is a fine, fire-polished rolled rim, which provides a smooth sipping experience while adding a layer of chip-resistance.
The Olympia Advantage: Everyday Elegance, Built to Last
Choosing Olympia for your barware isn't just about buying a glass; it's an investment in consistency and reliability. For years, Olympia has been a trusted name in the UK hospitality industry, known for producing items that skilfully walk the line between aesthetic appeal and practical, everyday toughness. These Olympia Bar Collection sherry glasses are a prime example. They are designed with the understanding that in a commercial setting, a glass will be used, washed, and handled hundreds of times. The focus on durable crystal, stable bases, and reinforced rims means fewer replacements, less waste, and a consistently high standard of presentation for your customers. This commitment to real-world performance is why so many pubs, restaurants, and hotels rely on Olympia to equip their bars – it’s professional-grade equipment that delivers lasting value far beyond its initial purchase.

Ever wondered what makes 'crystal' glass special, especially for a busy place? It’s not just about looking fancy. Think of it like the difference between a standard car tyre and a performance one. Regular glass is perfectly fine, but commercial-grade crystal is engineered for better performance. It contains minerals that strengthen the glass structure, making it more resistant to the little knocks and temperature shocks that are unavoidable in a commercial kitchen or bar. This means fewer chips and breakages over time. Plus, these minerals also increase the glass's 'refractive index' – a technical way of saying it sparkles more, making your drinks look more appealing without you doing a thing. So, you get the wow-factor of brilliant clarity and the peace of mind of extra durability, which is a win-win.
