Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Hungry Hiker, a popular café in Keswick, Lake District, needed a dedicated unit for their range of homemade soups. Their small kitchen meant hob space was at a premium, especially during the tourist season.
"The Buffalo kettle has been brilliant. We can heat two different soups from chilled in the morning and they stay perfect all day long. It's completely freed up a burner on our main range, which has let us expand our breakfast menu. It's simple, reliable, and just works."
Robert Davies – Owner
The change allowed them to introduce a new all-day breakfast item, leading to a 15% increase in morning sales.
