Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Copper Kettle, a popular tearoom in York, was struggling with a chaotic ordering system using disposable paper slips that often got lost or damaged. They needed a more permanent and professional solution to streamline service during the tourist season.
"Our old paper numbers looked tatty and customers found them confusing. These acrylic boards look the part, they're always ready to go, and our staff can spot them a mile off. It's just... easier for everyone."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Copper Kettle
After implementing the Olympia table boards, the tearoom saw a significant improvement in order accuracy and a noticeable decrease in food delivery times during its busiest periods.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Unpack the boards and peel off any protective film.
- For best results, 'prime' the surface by rubbing the side of a piece of chalk over it and wiping it clean.
- Use liquid chalk markers for a sharp, clean look that's easy to erase.
- Place them in the centre of the table or wherever they are most visible to staff.
Keeping It Going
- Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth after each use. Avoid abrasive sponges.
- For stubborn liquid chalk marker residue, a small amount of vinegar solution can help.
- Stack carefully when storing to prevent the acrylic surfaces from scratching each other.
- Check them regularly for any chips or cracks, although the acrylic is very durable.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use standard dry-erase markers on these boards?
A: It's not recommended. For best results and easy cleaning, stick to liquid chalk markers or traditional chalk.
Q: Are the boards double-sided?
A: No, these boards have a writing surface on one side and a smooth back.
Q: How stable are they? Will they tip over easily?
A: They have a solid, self-standing base and are very stable for indoor use on flat surfaces like tables and countertops.
Q: Can these be used outdoors in a pub garden?
A: They are very lightweight, so they are best suited for indoor use or sheltered outdoor areas, as a strong gust of wind could blow them over.
Q: What's the best way to clean off liquid chalk marker?
A: A simple damp cloth works perfectly. For any stubborn ghosting, a little bit of soapy water or a vinegar-based cleaner will do the trick.
Q: Is the acrylic material easy to scratch?
A: The acrylic is durable for normal use, but sharp objects or abrasive cleaning pads can cause scratches. It's best to handle and clean them with care.
Q: Does the 'chalkboard' finish wear off over time?
A: The surface is designed for repeated use. With proper care and the right markers, the finish will remain in excellent condition for a very long time.
Q: Is the listed size the size of the writing area?
A: The dimensions 105(H) x 74(W)mm refer to the overall size of the board, including its stand. The usable writing area is slightly smaller.

You might see a simple blackboard, but the real benefit of the wipe-clean acrylic surface is total control and adaptability. Think of it less as a fixed number and more as a dynamic messaging board for every table. One minute it's 'Table 12', the next it's 'Reserved for Jones, 7pm'. On a quiet afternoon, you could even write 'Try our new Lemon Drizzle!' on it.
This flexibility means you're not just buying a numbering system; you're investing in a reusable communication tool. It saves on the cost and waste of paper signs and gives your front-of-house team a simple way to manage seating, promotions, and customer information all in one place. It’s about making one small product work ten different ways for your business.
