Expert Review and  Insights

The Ascot range is a firm favourite for a reason. It strikes that difficult balance between looking incredibly delicate and  being tough enough for the rigours of a professional kitchen. The bone china has a warmth and  translucency that you just don't get with standard porcelain, immediately elevating the perceived value of whatever you serve on it. It’s a smart choice for any establishment looking to impress.

  • Con: The 70°C dishwasher limit requires checking your machine's cycle temperature.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Willow Creek Inn, a historic guesthouse in the Lake District, decided to revamp its dining room experience to attract more non-resident bookings. Their old, heavy crockery felt dated and  didn't match the quality of their locally-sourced menu.

"We switched to the Royal Ascot bone china plates and  the difference was immediate. They feel so much more premium. Our food just looks better, and  guests have commented on the quality of the tableware in their reviews. They’re light for staff to carry but have held up brilliantly to our daily service."

Robert Davies – General Manager

Following the refresh, the Inn reported a 20% uplift in dinner reservations from non-guests and  a notable increase in positive online feedback mentioning the overall 'dining ambience'.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unbox and  inspect each plate for any signs of damage during transit.
  • Give all plates a thorough wash in a commercial dishwasher or by hand before their first use to remove any dust.
  • Ensure your dishwasher's rinse cycle does not exceed the recommended 70°C to maintain the glaze's integrity.

Keeping It Going

  • To prevent thermal shock, avoid transferring plates directly from a freezer to a hot oven.
  • Use non-abrasive detergents and  avoid metal scourers which can damage the fine glaze.
  • Stack plates of the same size together carefully, avoiding unnecessarily high stacks which can cause pressure chips.
  • Although durable, always handle with care – it is bone china, after all!

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Crockery

Not sure which plate is the perfect partner for your menu? Here are a few tips to help you decide.

Material Matters

Bone china offers a delicate, premium feel, while porcelain is known for its workhorse durability. Choose based on your brand's image and  the expected level of use.

Consider the Use Case

Is this for starters, mains, or sides? A 160mm commercial china plate is perfect for smaller portions, while larger 270mm+ plates are needed for main courses.

Shape and  Rim

Round plates are classic, but square or coupe-style plates can offer a modern twist. Wide rims are great for presentation but reduce the usable food area.

Check for Durability Features

Look for features like a 'rolled edge' to prevent chipping or a 'glazed foot' to stop scratching when plates are stacked.

Colour and  Style

White is a timeless classic that makes food the hero. However, coloured or patterned crockery can help reinforce your brand's unique identity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What exactly is Bone China?

A: Bone china is a type of porcelain renowned for its high levels of whiteness, translucency, and  strength, achieved by including bone ash in its composition. It's considered a luxury material but is very durable.

Q: Are these plates truly suitable for a busy restaurant?

A: Yes, absolutely. While elegant, the Royal CG300 bone china plate is fully vitrified, making it robust, heat-resistant, and  designed for professional catering environments.

Q: Can I use these plates to heat up food in a microwave?

A: Yes, these plates are fully microwave safe, offering great versatility in the kitchen.

Q: What does 'dishwasher safe up to 70°C' mean in practice?

A: It means the plates can be safely washed in most commercial dishwashers, but you should ensure the final rinse temperature of your machine's cycle doesn't exceed 70°C to protect the glaze long-term.

Q: Are the plates sold individually?

A: These plates are sold in boxes of 12, which is more cost-effective and  convenient for professional businesses needing to stock up.

Q: Will these plates stain easily from foods like beetroot or tomato sauces?

A: The high-quality glaze provides excellent resistance to staining from common foodstuffs, and  they clean up brilliantly.

Q: How heavy are they compared to standard porcelain plates?

A: Bone china is noticeably lighter than standard porcelain of a similar size, which can be a real benefit for staff carrying multiple plates during a busy service.

Q: Is the Ascot range extensive? Can I buy matching items?

A: Yes, the Ascot range includes a wide variety of matching plates, bowls, cups, and  saucers, allowing you to create a completely cohesive and  elegant tabletop.

Why a 'Super Glazed Foot' Saves You Money

Ever stacked plates and  heard that horrible gritty, scraping sound? That's the rough, unglazed bottom rim of one plate scratching the smooth, glazed surface of the one below it. Over time, this creates a web of grey marks and  ruins the look of your crockery. A 'super glazed foot' solves this problem entirely.

Think of it like putting smooth felt pads on the bottom of furniture to protect a wooden floor. The base of this Ascot range dinner plate is coated in the same hard, smooth glaze as the top surface. This means when you stack them, it's a smooth-on-smooth contact. The result? No scratches, no grey marks, and  your plates look pristine for much, much longer. It's a small detail that makes a huge difference to long-term appearance and  reduces replacement costs.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fine Dining Restaurants: Ideal for presenting exquisite amuse-bouche, petit fours, or artisan bread selections with a touch of sophistication.
  • Boutique Hotels: Perfect for upgrading your in-room dining, afternoon tea service, or executive lounge breakfast offerings.
  • Wedding & Event Venues: A reliable and  elegant choice for serving canapés or desserts at high-end functions and  celebrations.
  • Artisan Patisseries: The perfect stage to showcase your delicate cakes, pastries, and  desserts for eat-in customers.
