Once you’ve got your location and business plan ready, it’s time to pick out the commercial bar equipment that will lead you to success. Depending on the type of bar you are opening, there is some equipment you may or may not need. There are some key pieces of bar equipment you should always include in your bar business plan and One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment is here to run you through them. Come, take my hand…
• REACH-IN COOLERS: these coolers can be used to keep beer and a variety of foodstuffs at the proper, cool temperature. Reach-in coolers are typically upright models, so these are usually kept in the back of the house and used for storing the beer stock.
• BOTTLE COOLERS: the beer that is kept up front behind the bar is normally held in bottle coolers. These horizontal models sit along the bar where bartenders can easily reach down and crack one open. One Fat Frog Bar Equipment carries a varying selection of commercial bottle coolers, from brands like True, Beverage Air, Delfield, and more!
• WINE COOLERS: these coolers don’t get as cold as a standard cooler. They hold wine at a proper, chilled temperature.
• KEG COOLERS: also known as kegerators, these units hold kegs in their cavity, which can be accessed with a swing door, and the beer taps sit on top. Kegs can be easily changed with a kegerator. They come in a variety of sizes and the size you purchase should reflect the numbers of beer on tap at your location.
• ICE BINS: ice machines and ice bins create and store ice for use throughout the day. These also come in a variety of sizes and the one you buy should reflect the amount of ice you go through in a typical day.
• BAR STOOLS: duh. High back, round style, etc. – head into One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment for all of your bar stool needs. Bar stools never last long at our location, so if we have a set in stock that you’re interested in, better act fast!
• FROZEN DRINK MACHINE: these are typically commercial blenders used to blend ice and mixed drink ingredients into a variety of tasty concoctions.
• SPEED RAILS: these handy shelving devices display liquor bottles and make them easy to reach for bartenders. Tupically the high quality (and most expensive) liquors are kept on the top shelf, with the more discount brands getting benched on the bottom.
• MISCELLANEOUS BAR SUPPLIES: a variety of sanitizing materials will be needed to keep your bar clean and presentable. Rags, buckets, soda guns, rubber floor mats, etc.
Here’s a quick recap:
• Reach-in coolers
• Bottle cooler
• Wine cooler
• Keg cooler
• Beer taps
• Bar stools
• Ice bin
• Frozen drink machine
