Accessory Bar

Behind the Bar – Essential Bar Accessories

When setting up a new bar; whether it's a swanky new town night spot, a back street pub or a restaurant or hotel bar, there can be a lot to think about.

Getting the drinks ordered, ensuring the décor is completed and that you have all the facilities and requirements need for a new business. Often, then, the things that really matter, such as the bar equipment and other bar accessories can get left to the last minute.

However, ordering bar accessories is not a job that should be rushed because if you get it wrong it can lead to all sorts of difficulties come opening night. So it is important you make the right decisions first time around, otherwise you could be frantically ordering new bar accessories at the last minute.

To be sure you don't miss anything try breaking down the bar tasks in stages and think about all the bar equipment that will be needed in each stage:

Serving Drinks

As an example think about the process of serving drinks to customers; this can be broken down into three stages:

• Pouring the drinks
• Serving the customer
• Taking the cash.

When pouring drinks you need to think of what bar equipment is used. Obviously the appropriate glass for the beverage is needed but then think, if it's beer from a pump you will need drip trays and wine will need measures (unless the glasses are marked) as do spirits from optics.

When serving the customer think what is needed during this task. Drink mats for beer; ice may be required for spirits; so that's the bucket, and tongs; while cocktails will need some garnish like umbrellas.

Bar Accessories like Drip Trays can get Forgotten

Then think of the next stage. The till is obvious but remember where the customer will be going and ensure you have enough mats on the tables, for example.

If you repeat this systematic approach for each conceivable task you should ensure you don't forget some of the bar accessories that can halt any opening night in its tracks and make your new business even more difficult to get off the ground.
