Bonzer Barware

The Bonzer Large Waste Chute is a simple, low-profile insert designed to fit into a cut-out in a bar counter top, giving staff a convenient and hygienic way to sweep waste — used lemon wedges, bottle caps, straws, paper debris — directly off the surface and into a bin below. It sits flush with the counter, keeping the working surface clear without interrupting the flow of service.

In a busy bar environment, keeping the counter clear is a constant challenge during service. A built-in waste chute removes the need for surface bins or repeated trips to dispose of garnish and packaging waste, which helps staff stay focused on the bar rather than managing clutter. Over the course of an evening service, that convenience adds up in small but meaningful ways.

• Flush-fitting insert keeps the bar surface clean and unobstructed
• Reduces reliance on surface waste containers during service
• Encourages faster clean-as-you-go working habits at the bar
• Durable Bonzer construction suited to continuous hospitality use
• Simple design makes cleaning and emptying the bin below straightforward

Installation requires a cut-out in the counter top to the appropriate dimensions for the large chute. This is a fixed installation, so it is worth confirming the counter material and thickness before cutting. It is most commonly fitted during a bar build or refurbishment, though it can be retrofitted to an existing counter if the position and substrate allow. A smaller version is available if your counter space or waste volume requirements are more modest.

This chute is well suited to bars, cocktail stations, and service counters where waste management during busy periods is a practical concern. It is a straightforward, proven piece of bar smallware that earns its place through daily usefulness rather than complexity.

If you are fitting out a new bar or retrofitting an existing one and would like to talk through which size suits your setup, the team is happy to help.

The Bonzer Hawthorne Strainer is a traditional two-ear cocktail strainer designed to sit securely across a mixing glass or shaker tin during pouring. It is made in the UK and finished in electroplated nickel silver (EPNS), a material long associated with Bonzer's heritage in silverware production dating back to the 1930s.

The oversized spring is a practical detail that matters in service. It creates a tighter seal across the rim and reduces the chance of ice or fruit fragments passing through during a pour — useful when speed and consistency are both expected at the bar. The two-ear design provides a stable resting position on most standard mixing vessels without slipping during use.

In day-to-day bar use, this strainer holds up well in environments where tools are handled repeatedly across a long service. The silver plate finish retains its appearance with straightforward cleaning and gives the piece a professional look that suits both back-bar display and active service. Key practical points include:

• Oversized spring reduces ice and pulp passing through during pouring
• Two-ear design rests securely on standard mixing glasses and tins
• EPNS finish is durable and maintains appearance with regular cleaning
• UK manufacture to consistent dimensional tolerances

This strainer is well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurant operations where both function and presentation matter. It is a single-purpose tool — operators needing a julep strainer for stirred drinks or a fine-mesh strainer for double-straining should consider those separately. For operations requiring a larger volume of bar tools or a full kit, it is worth discussing requirements before ordering to ensure the right combination.

If you have questions about bar tool selection or fitting out a new bar operation, the team is happy to help you choose correctly.

The Bonzer Bar Blade is a simple, well-made bar tool designed for removing crown caps quickly and cleanly. Rather than a conventional lever-style opener, it works by sliding the blade up the neck of the bottle and lifting the cap off in one smooth movement — a technique that becomes fast and intuitive with a little practice.

In busy bar environments where speed matters, the bar blade is a practical choice. Experienced bartenders can open bottles rapidly without the fumbling associated with traditional openers, which helps keep service moving during peak periods. The action is consistent and clean, reducing the chance of cap distortion or spillage at the neck.

It is a straightforward tool with no moving parts and nothing to wear out or replace, which makes it reliably low-maintenance. Cleaning is quick, and it is compact enough to keep to hand on the bar without taking up space.

There is a modest learning curve for staff unfamiliar with the technique, so it is worth allowing a short period of practice before using it under pressure in service. Once comfortable with the motion, most bar staff find it quicker than conventional openers for high-volume bottle service.

The Bar Blade suits bars, pubs, event caterers, and any operation where bottled drinks are a significant part of service. For lower-volume or less frequent use, a standard lever opener may be sufficient — the bar blade rewards regular use.

If you are equipping a new bar or reviewing your smallwares, feel free to get in touch and we can help you put together the right kit.

The Bonzer Small Waste Chute is a recessed bar counter insert designed to give front-of-house staff a discreet, hygienic point for disposing of waste during service. It drops into a cut-out in the counter surface and sits flush, keeping the bar top clear and reducing the need to move waste containers around during a shift.

In busy bar environments, a tidy counter makes a practical difference. Having a fixed waste point built into the worktop helps staff work more efficiently — fruit trimmings, cocktail waste, straws, and paper debris can be cleared without breaking the flow of service. The low-profile design means it doesn't interrupt the working surface or obstruct movement along the bar.

The chute is straightforward to fit into most standard bar counter builds and is well suited to new installations or counter refurbishments where waste management is being reconsidered. It's a small addition that tends to have a noticeable effect on how cleanly a bar service runs in practice.

Because this is a smaller model, it's best suited to lower-volume bars or as a secondary waste point alongside a main bin station. Higher-volume operations or bars handling larger quantities of waste may want to consider a larger chute format for their primary position.

If you're fitting out a new bar or retrofitting an existing counter and want to talk through the right waste management layout, we're happy to help you think it through.

The Bonzer Jigger is a dual-capacity bar measure designed to deliver accurate 25ml and 50ml pours in a single tool. It is the standard format used across licensed bars, hotel lounges, and cocktail operations where speed and consistency at the point of pour matter.

In a busy bar environment, accuracy is not just about compliance — it affects consistency across serves, cost control, and the pace of service during peak periods. A well-balanced jigger that pours cleanly without spillage makes a practical difference across a long shift. The Bonzer range is well regarded in professional bar settings for exactly this reason: reliable construction that holds up to repeated, heavy daily use.

• Dual capacity covers both single and double measures in one tool
• Consistent pour aids compliance with licensing measure requirements
• Durable construction suited to professional bar use
• Compact form fits comfortably in a bar pourer's hand

There are no installation considerations for this product. It is worth ensuring bar staff are familiar with which end corresponds to which measure, particularly in high-speed service where errors can accumulate. If your operation requires a different measure combination, it is worth checking whether an alternative size pairing is more appropriate for your licence or menu.

This jigger is well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, pub operations, and any licensed venue requiring accurate spirit measures as standard. If you serve a high volume of mixed drinks and are equipping multiple stations, it is worth considering how many units you need per bar position to avoid bottlenecks during service.

If you are unsure which measure format best suits your bar setup or licensing requirements, our team is happy to talk it through.

The Bonzer mixing spoon is a long-handled bar spoon built to the classic 10.5 setup that professional bartenders have relied on for decades. It features a 5ml spoon bowl at one end and a flat disc at the other, with a spiralled shaft running the length of the handle. Bonzer is widely credited as the originator of this style, and the design has since become the reference point against which most other bar spoons are measured.

In a busy bar environment, the spiralled shaft does more than add visual appeal — it gives bartenders genuine control when layering drinks, allowing liquid to run down the twist at a steady, predictable rate. The disc end is useful for muddling lightly or pressing garnishes, and the balanced weight of the spoon makes extended stirring comfortable during a heavy service.

Stainless steel construction means the spoon holds up well to daily use, resists staining from citrus and syrups, and passes easily through a glasswasher without deterioration. It is a practical, no-fuss tool that earns its place behind any professional bar.

If you are equipping a new bar or refreshing a set of worn-out tools, the team is happy to advise on quantities and whether any other Bonzer bar tools would complement your setup.

The Bonzer Oval Julep Bar Strainer is a straightforward, well-made tool designed to hold back ice when pouring from a mixing glass or Boston glass during cocktail preparation. Its oval form fits cleanly across the rim of a mixing glass, giving the bartender control over the pour without the need for a coiled spring — which makes it the preferred choice for stirred drinks where a Hawthorne strainer would be less comfortable to use.

Made from stainless steel and manufactured in the UK, this strainer carries the same build quality that the Bonzer barware range is known for. In a busy bar environment, that consistency matters — tools that bend, corrode, or lose their shape under daily use create small but cumulative problems during service. This strainer is built to handle regular use without issue.

• Clean, consistent strain on stirred cocktails without spring interference
• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and staining
• UK-made to the quality standards of the wider Bonzer range
• Simple to clean and quick to dry between uses
• Sits reliably across mixing glass rims during active service

For most bar setups this is a practical, no-fuss addition to the back bar toolkit. If you're equipping a larger operation or want to discuss building out a full barware kit, the team is happy to help you put the right pieces together.

The Bonzer Freeflow Pourer is a straightforward, reliable bar accessory designed to fit standard spirit and liqueur bottles and deliver a consistent, controlled pour. The chrome-plated finish gives a clean, professional appearance on the bar top, and the polycork insert provides a firm, secure fit across a wide range of bottle neck sizes. Each pack contains twelve pourers, making it practical for initial bar setup or restocking.

In busy bar environments, freeflow pourers reduce handling time and help staff pour accurately without reaching for a measure on every service. These are commonly used across pub bars, hotel lounges, restaurant bars and licensed café operations where speed of service matters without compromising accuracy. The soft cork grip seats securely without tools and can be removed quickly for cleaning or bottle changeover.

• Chrome-plated finish suits front-of-bar presentation
• Polycork insert fits a wide range of standard bottle necks securely
• Suitable for spirits, syrups, oils and most free-flowing liquids
• Pack of twelve supports full bar setup or routine replacement stock
• Made in the UK

These pourers are a practical choice for most licensed operations. For very high-volume venues or where measured pouring is a licensing requirement, it is worth confirming whether freeflow pourers are appropriate for your specific service setup — the team is happy to advise on that if useful.

The Bonzer Muddler and Lewis Bag is a paired barware set designed for cocktail preparation and ice crushing in professional bar environments. The set comprises a stainless steel muddler — weighted for effective use with fruit, herbs, and sugar — alongside a natural twill cotton canvas Lewis bag, which is used to crush ice by hand before it enters the glass or shaker.

In a working bar, both tools earn their place during service. The muddler's weight and solid construction make it reliable for consistent results across a high volume of orders, while the Lewis bag method of ice crushing produces a finer, more textured result than a standard ice crusher for certain cocktail styles. Neither tool requires any power source, which keeps them practical in bar setups where bench space and socket availability are at a premium.

• Stainless steel construction supports repeated, heavy-duty use
• Lewis bag produces a finer crush suited to specific cocktail styles
• No power source required — entirely manual operation
• Both items available separately if a replacement is needed
• Available with branding applied, suitable for venue-branded service

There are no installation requirements. Both items are hand-use tools that can be introduced into any bar setup immediately. The Lewis bag will require periodic laundering to maintain hygiene standards, and as with any fabric item in a bar environment, replacement over time should be factored in.

This set suits cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurant bars where classic muddling and hand-crushed ice are part of the drinks offer. It is a straightforward, practical choice for venues that value manual technique over powered alternatives.

The Bonzer Vacuum Wine Saver is a hand-operated pump system designed to extend the shelf life of opened wine bottles by removing air from the bottle before sealing it with a rubber stopper. The kit includes the pump and two stoppers, allowing multiple open bottles to be preserved simultaneously — a practical consideration for any bar running a wine-by-the-glass programme.

Once a stopper is inserted into the bottle neck, the pump draws out the air to create a low-oxygen environment inside the bottle. This slows oxidation and helps maintain the wine's flavour and character between services, reducing unnecessary wastage on partially used bottles.

For bars and restaurants offering a range of wines by the glass, preserving quality across open bottles is a straightforward operational concern. The Bonzer system handles this without relying on inert gas canisters or complex equipment — it is a simple, low-cost approach that works well where volume does not justify a more involved preservation system. The stoppers are reusable and easy to clean, which keeps ongoing costs minimal.

This type of vacuum preserver is best suited to smaller operations or lower-turnover wine lists where bottles may sit open overnight or between services. Busier venues cycling through bottles more quickly may find it adequate, though higher-volume sites with a wider by-the-glass offering may benefit from a more robust preservation solution.

If you are unsure whether this suits the pace of your service or the size of your wine list, our team is happy to talk it through.

The Bonzer dual jigger is a straightforward double-ended measure offering a 20ml capacity on one side and 40ml on the other — covering the standard single and double spirit measures commonly used in licensed bar and cocktail service environments.

In a busy bar setting, consistent pours matter both for drink quality and compliance with licensing requirements. A well-made jigger removes guesswork from cocktail preparation and helps staff maintain accuracy during high-volume service without slowing throughput. The dual-capacity design means a single tool handles both measures, reducing the need to reach for separate equipment mid-service.

• Handles both single and double spirit measures in one tool
• Supports accurate, repeatable pours during busy service periods
• Reduces clutter at the bar station
• Straightforward to clean and dry between uses
• Suitable for cocktail preparation and standard licensed bar service

There are no installation requirements — this is a handheld tool that slots into existing bar setups without any modification. It is worth confirming that the 20ml and 40ml capacities align with your licence conditions and house pour standards before committing to a measure size, as requirements can vary between operators.

This jigger is well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, restaurants, and any licensed venue where staff are preparing mixed drinks or serving spirits to measure. For venues requiring a different capacity combination, other measure sizes are available within the range.

If you have questions about measure compliance or want to confirm the right specification for your service style, the team is happy to help.

The Bonzer Stainless Steel Muddler is a single-piece bar tool designed for crushing, mashing and muddling ingredients during cocktail preparation. The stainless steel handle terminates in a serrated end, which grips and breaks down herbs, fruit, sugar and spice without slipping off the ingredient. The rounded handle sits comfortably in the palm, giving the operator control over pressure and direction throughout the muddling action.

In a busy bar environment, consistency and speed matter. A well-balanced muddler lets staff work quickly without excessive effort, reducing fatigue during a long service. The serrated end is effective on a wide range of ingredients — from fresh mint and citrus wedges to sugar cubes — without requiring multiple passes. The stainless steel construction holds up to repeated use and is straightforward to clean between drinks.

• Serrated end gives reliable grip and effective crush on herbs, fruit and sugar
• Single-piece construction with no joints or removable parts to trap residue
• Rounded handle end supports comfortable, controlled grip during service
• Stainless steel body is durable and easy to wipe down or wash
• Suitable for professional cocktail bars, hotel bars and restaurant bar stations

There are no specific installation requirements — this is a hand tool that requires only storage in a bar caddy, rail or utensil holder. It is worth checking compatibility with any existing bar tool sets for consistency of handle weight and length. For outlets with very high cocktail throughput, having multiple muddlers in rotation is straightforward given the accessible price point.

This muddler is well suited to cocktail bars, hotel bar operations, and restaurant bars where muddled drinks feature regularly on the menu. If you are equipping a full bar station from scratch or want to confirm it fits your current setup, feel free to get in touch with the team.
