Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
‘The Copper Kettle’, a bustling tea room in York, was struggling with a disorganised till area, often leading to misplaced order slips during peak tourist season. They needed a simple, reliable, and smart-looking solution that wouldn’t clutter their antique wooden counter.
“We were just using a little pot and it was a nightmare. The Olympia spike has made such a difference. It’s neat, it looks lovely with our brass fittings, and nothing gets lost anymore. A tiny change that had a big impact on our daily flow.”
Robert Davies – Owner
The tea room reported a noticeable reduction in order errors and a much faster, less stressful cash-up process at the end of each day.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the receipt spike and remove any protective packaging.
- Place it on a flat, stable surface near your till or order station.
- Remove the rubber safety cap from the tip before the first use.
- Ensure it's within easy reach for staff but away from customer access.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe down daily with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove fingerprints and grime.
- For a polished look, dry thoroughly with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots.
- Always replace the safety cap at the end of service or when cleaning the area.
- Periodically check that the base is clean and free of debris to ensure stability.

Explore more from OlympiaWhy Stainless Steel Makes All the Difference
You might see 'stainless steel' and think it's standard, but for a piece of equipment that's handled all day, it's a crucial feature. Think of it like the difference between a cheap raincoat and a proper waterproof jacket. Cheaper metals might be prone to rust from spills, bend under the weight of a thick stack of orders, or tarnish over time from constant handling. Stainless steel resists all of that. It provides the necessary weight for stability, it’s non-porous so it won’t harbour germs and is incredibly easy to clean, and it maintains its integrity and smart appearance for years. It's the reason this simple restaurant order spike is a long-term investment in a smooth, hygienic, and professional-looking workspace.
Who Should Buy This?

- Busy Bistros & Restaurants: An essential tool for front-of-house to manage table orders and billing chits seamlessly.
