Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Gilded Lily, a boutique cocktail bar in York, was looking to upgrade their standard plastic ice buckets to something that matched their sophisticated, speakeasy-inspired decor.

"Our customers notice the small details. Switching to this copper ice bucket with lid has genuinely elevated our tableside presentation. They look fantastic and keep the ice perfectly chilled all evening, which means better drinks and happier guests."

Leo Davies – Bar Manager

The switch resulted in a noticeable increase in positive customer comments on the bar's ambiance and attention to detail, reinforcing their premium brand identity.

How Double-Wall Insulation Keeps Your Ice Colder, Longer

Ever wondered how a good travel flask keeps your tea hot for hours? This insulated ice bucket for catering uses the exact same principle, but for keeping things cold. The 'double-wall' design means there are two separate layers of stainless steel with a sealed gap of air between them. This gap acts as a powerful insulator, dramatically slowing down heat transfer from the warm air in your bar to the ice inside the bucket. Think of it like putting a cosy puffer jacket on your ice – it stops the outside temperature from getting in, meaning far less melting, drier ice, and better quality drinks for your customers all night long.

Installation and Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, simply remove all packaging.
  • Give the bucket and lid a quick wash in warm, soapy water.
  • Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth before its first use.
  • That's it! It's ready to be filled with ice and put to work.

Keeping It Going

  • To protect the beautiful finish, always hand wash this item.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals.
  • Use a soft microfibre cloth to polish away fingerprints and restore its shine.
  • Store in a dry place when not in use to maintain its condition.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Ice Bucket

Not sure what to look for? Choosing the right ice bucket can make a real difference to your service. Here are a few key things to consider.

Consider Capacity

Think about its main use. A 1-litre bucket like this is perfect for a single bottle at a table, while a larger one might be better behind a busy bar.

Check the Material

Look for a durable core material like stainless steel. Finishes like copper or black add style, but the core provides the strength for daily commercial use.

Insulation is Key

Always opt for a double-walled design. It's the single most important feature for preventing rapid melting and messy condensation on your tables.

Lid or No Lid?

A lid is a brilliant feature for keeping ice clean and insulated before and during service. It’s a must for pre-prepped stations or outdoor events.

Match Your Aesthetic

An ice bucket is part of your decor. Choose a style – like this polished copper one – that complements your brand and the atmosphere of your venue.

A: Yes, its 1-litre capacity is designed to comfortably hold a standard wine or champagne bottle surrounded by ice.
