In today’s increasingly image-conscious and sharing-oriented world, where the competition in the food service industry is fierce, nothing should be left to chance. And even carefully choosing glassware for a restaurant becomes an opportunity to increase the value of the dining location.
Very often the restaurateur focuses more on the choice of plates, which definitely have a starring role, but the glassware is also not to be outdone, because the first thing the customer has to deal with when seated at the table is precisely the glass and the choice of drinks. So let’s see how to make a good choice.

Choose an appropriate style
When considering which set of glasses to put on the table of your restaurant, the choice is certainly also an aesthetic one, and personal taste is perhaps what helps the restaurateur to make his decision, as it will express his personal style to diners. This choice, however, should not be based on the beauty of the individual piece in the collection, but rather on its ability to interact at best with the food and drinks served, the atmosphere of the place and the rest of the table setting.
It is also good to dwell on one point: the height of the glass will inevitably affect the emphasis factor of its contents.
Opting for functionality
When we talk about functionality, we obviously do not mean the choice of a complete set of water glasses, red and white wine glasses, flutes and whatnot. We are talking about the customer’s experience, which has its own importance in his overall judgment.
We can assess a glass’s all-around feel: if it feels too heavy, looks too tall, or if it takes too much effort to hold onto it.
Go for durability
At a restaurant the glassware is used and washed on a daily basis, and it therefore goes without saying that glasses must resist all chemical and mechanical stresses and last as long as possible. They must stand up to dishwashers and detergents. The choice also depends greatly on the diners you wish to draw, and for example, a family restaurant should opt for a set that will last much longer.
In conclusion, we can say that the choice of glasses should be made with appropriate compromises on these three factors. If you would like to know more about our collections, request Livellara catalogs now!
