Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Queen's Head, a bustling gastropub in York, needed to standardise their glassware. Their collection of mismatched glasses looked unprofessional and suffered from frequent chips and breakages during busy services, leading to constant reordering.
"We wanted a uniform look that felt classic but could handle being washed and used hundreds of times a week. The Olympia pilsner glasses were the perfect fit. They look smart on the table, they feel substantial, and they've been incredibly resilient."
Michael Edwards – General Manager
Since switching to the Olympia GM568 glasses six months ago, the pub has reported a 40% reduction in glassware breakage, saving money and ensuring a consistently professional presentation for every drink served.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon delivery, carefully unbox and inspect each glass for any damage that may have occurred in transit.
- Always wash glasses thoroughly before their first use to remove any dust or residue from manufacturing.
- Prime your glass storage areas, ensuring shelves are clean, sturdy, and free from clutter.
Keeping It Going
- These are glasswasher safe, but ensure you use a suitable glass rack to prevent knocking and chipping.
- Avoid 'thermal shock' by not pouring ice-cold liquids into a glass straight from a hot wash cycle.
- Stack carefully where possible, or use shelf liners to reduce vibration and impact between glasses.
- Regularly check for small chips or cracks, and remove any damaged glasses from service immediately.

Explore more from OlympiaThe Science of the Swirl: Why a Pilsner's Shape Matters
Ever wondered why a pilsner glass is tall and slender? It’s not just for looks; it’s clever design in action. The elongated shape does a brilliant job of showcasing the beer's true colour, clarity, and the lively dance of its carbonation. Think of it like a display case for your best lagers.
The slightly wider mouth is the real secret weapon, though. It helps to support a thick, creamy head of foam, which isn't just for show. That foam cap traps the delicate aromas of the hops and malt, meaning your customer gets a better-smelling, and therefore better-tasting, beer with every sip. It’s a simple feature that makes a massive difference to the overall drinking experience.
Who Should Buy This?
- Traditional Pubs & Bars: The ideal vessel for serving classic lagers and pilsners, enhancing the customer's pint experience.
- Restaurants & Bistros: A versatile and stylish option for a drinks menu that includes bottled beers and tall cocktails.
- Hotels & Event Venues: A durable and cost-effective solution for high-volume service at weddings, conferences, and in-house bars.
