- Requires Good Cleaning: Like all reusable straws, they need a thorough wash to remain perfectly hygienic.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Northern Pour", a popular gin bar in Leeds, was looking to eliminate single-use plastics from their service to align with their sustainable, locally-sourced ethos. They needed a reusable option that was both elegant and tough enough for hundreds of customers a night.
"Our customers notice the little details. Switching to these Beaumont metal straws was a small change that made a massive difference to our look and our environmental credentials. They just feel so much more premium."
Ben Carter – Bar Manager
The switch resulted in the complete elimination of their plastic straw budget and a noticeable increase in positive online reviews mentioning their green initiatives.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, run the straws through a full dishwasher cycle or wash thoroughly in hot, soapy water.
- Designate a clean, dry container or cutlery divider for storage to keep them hygienic and ready for service.
- Consider getting a dedicated, long-stemmed cleaning brush for a quick scrub-through after serving thicker drinks like milkshakes.
- Inspect each straw upon unboxing to ensure they are all perfect and ready for your customers.
Keeping It Going
- For best results, rinse straws immediately after use to prevent sugars or residues from drying inside.
- While dishwasher safe, hand-drying with a microfibre cloth will prevent water spots and keep them looking pristine.
- Store them vertically in a holder rather than loose in a drawer to prevent scratching and make them easy to grab.
- Periodically check the ends of the straws to ensure they remain smooth and comfortable for sipping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these stainless steel straws fully dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, absolutely. They are made from commercial-grade stainless steel and are designed to withstand repeated cycles in a professional dishwasher.
Q: Will the metal give my drinks a funny taste?
A: Not at all. High-quality stainless steel is non-reactive, meaning it won't leach any flavour into your drinks, unlike some lower-quality metal or plastic alternatives.
Q: How long are these straws?
A: These are 8.5 inch metal drinking straws (215mm), a versatile length that is ideal for most standard highball glasses, tumblers, and soft drink glasses.
Q: Can I use these for hot drinks like coffee or tea?
A: We advise against it. Metal is an excellent conductor of heat, and the straw could become uncomfortably hot to the touch. They are best suited for cold beverages.
Q: How many straws are included in this pack?
A: This is a pack of 25 individual Beaumont stainless steel straws, offering great value for outfitting your business.
Q: Are they wide enough for thick milkshakes or smoothies?
A: They have a standard diameter suitable for most beverages. For exceptionally thick, pulp-heavy smoothies or milkshakes, a wider 'smoothie' straw might be preferable.
Q: Does a cleaning brush come with the pack?
A: A cleaning brush is not included with this pack of 25 straws, but they are available to purchase separately on our site.
Q: What is the finish on these straws?
A: These straws feature a stylish and modern brushed steel finish, which helps to conceal minor scratches and fingerprints from regular use.

Explore more from BeaumontWhy a Brushed Finish Matters More Than You Think
You might see "brushed stainless steel" and just think it’s about looks, but there’s a practical advantage for a busy bar or café. Unlike a highly polished, mirror-like finish, a brushed finish is excellent at hiding minor scratches and fingerprints. Think of it like the difference between a glossy black car and a matte-finished one; the glossy one shows every single speck of dust and swirl mark. In a fast-paced environment where straws are being handled, washed, and stored constantly, the brushed texture keeps them looking newer for longer, maintaining that premium feel without you needing to polish them obsessively. It’s a small detail that saves your staff time and keeps your standards consistently high.
Who Should Buy This?
- Modern Cafés: An excellent choice for serving iced coffees and smoothies with a touch of class. This is the ideal pack of metal straws for cafés.
- Cocktail Bars & Pubs: The sleek metal design is perfect for stirring and sipping, enhancing your mixology presentation and feel.
- Busy Restaurants: A durable, reusable solution that withstands constant washing cycles, saving significant money on disposables.
- Eco-Conscious Businesses: Any venue wanting to reduce its carbon footprint and appeal to environmentally aware customers.
