Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Willow Creek Bistro in Keswick, Cumbria, decided it was time to replace their collection of ageing, mismatched ceramic teapots which were prone to chipping and difficult to clean efficiently during their busy lunch service.
"We wanted a uniform, professional look that could withstand constant use. The Olympia teapots are brilliant. They look smart on the table, our customers have complimented them, and the non-drip spout has genuinely cut down on tablecloth spills and clean-up time for the team."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Willow Creek Bistro
The switch resulted in a 20% faster table turnaround for tea service due to easier cleaning and pouring, and a noticeable reduction in replacement costs from breakages.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, give the teapot a thorough wash with warm, soapy water to remove any manufacturing residues.
- Rinse well and dry completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Gently check the hinge mechanism to ensure it opens and closes smoothly.
Keeping It Going
- For best results, rinse the teapot immediately after use to prevent tea tannins from staining the interior.
- While dishwasher safe, handwashing with a soft cloth will best preserve the high-polish mirror finish.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the stainless steel.
- If you're in a hard water area, descale periodically by boiling a solution of water and vinegar inside.
