Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

'The Corner Table', a popular neighbourhood bistro in York, wanted to replace their mismatched and  worn-out glass shakers to better reflect their recent menu upgrade and  rebranding.

"We were looking for something that felt more substantial and  looked the part. The Olympia black condiment shakers for cafes immediately lifted the look of our tables. They feel solid, the grind is great, and  they just blend in perfectly with our new aesthetic. It’s a small detail, but our regulars have noticed."

Michael Davies – Owner, The Corner Table

The upgrade resulted in a more cohesive and  professional table presentation, reinforcing the bistro's commitment to quality throughout the entire dining experience.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unscrew the top knob and  remove the wooden cap to access the chamber.
  • Fill with coarse sea salt or whole peppercorns – avoid filling to the very top.
  • Replace the cap and  screw the knob back on. Adjust tightness for a finer or coarser grind.
  • Give them a quick wipe with a dry cloth before placing them on tables.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scourers.
  • Never submerge the grinders in water as this can damage the wood and  mechanism.
  • Check fill levels daily as part of your table setup routine to avoid them running out mid-service.
  • Ensure grinders are completely dry before refilling to prevent clumping.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Condiments Set

Not sure which condiment set is right for your tables? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Match Your Style

Consider your restaurant's decor. A modern wooden set like this suits contemporary, rustic, or industrial themes, whereas classic glass or steel might fit a different vibe.

Grinder vs. Shaker

Grinders provide fresh flavour and  a premium feel, which guests appreciate. Standard shakers are simpler but are best suited for fine, free-flowing salt and  ground pepper.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for smooth surfaces that are easy to wipe clean. Complex designs can trap food and  grease, making them a headache for your team during cleanup.

The Guest Experience

Choose a set that is intuitive to use and  easy to handle. If it's too heavy, fiddly, or awkward, it can detract from the dining experience you're trying to create.

Consider Durability

Your tableware takes a lot of punishment. Materials like rubber wood or stainless steel are built to last longer than cheaper plastic or fragile glass alternatives in a commercial setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these grinders or just shakers?

A: These are proper grinders. They feature a ceramic grinding mechanism for both the salt and  pepper, providing a fresh grind every time.

Q: What material are they made from?

A: The body of the shakers is made from solid rubber wood with a black painted finish.

Q: How do I refill the Olympia GL087 salt and  pepper shakers?

A: Simply unscrew the metal knob on top and  lift off the wooden cap. This gives you access to the chamber to fill with coarse salt or peppercorns.

Q: What are the dimensions?

A: Each grinder measures 100mm in height and  50mm in diameter, making them a compact and  convenient size for any table.

Q: How should I clean them?

A: We recommend wiping them with a clean, damp cloth. Do not put them in a dishwasher or submerge them in water.

Q: Are they suitable for outdoor use?

A: As they are made of wood, they are best suited for indoor use to protect them from the elements and  ensure their longevity.

Why a Ceramic Grinder Makes All the Difference

You might wonder what the big deal is about a 'ceramic grinding mechanism'. Think of it like the engine in a car. Standard metal grinders in cheap shakers are prone to rust and  corrosion, especially from salt. Over time, this can taint the flavour of the seasoning and  cause the mechanism to seize up. Ceramic, on the other hand, is completely inert. It won't rust, corrode, or absorb flavours, meaning the salt and  pepper tastes exactly as it should, every single time. It's the difference between a tool that just 'does the job' and  one that does it perfectly, for longer.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Modern Cafes: Perfect for completing a minimalist or industrial-chic decor on every table.
  • Bustling Bistros: A durable and  stylish choice that stands up to constant use day and  night.
  • Hotel Dining Rooms: Adds a touch of understated elegance to breakfast service or fine dining settings.
  • Gastropubs: The ideal restaurant salt and  pepper table set to complement a high-quality food offering.
