The Spidocook Spidoglass is a manual contact grill featuring a ribbed upper plate and a smooth lower plate, both finished in black glass ceramic. The ribbed surface marks and chars food in the way operators and customers expect from a proper grill, while the smooth lower plate provides even contact heat for items that benefit from an uninterrupted cooking surface. Manual operation keeps the controls straightforward — there are no programmes or timers to navigate, which suits kitchens where staff experience varies or where speed of training matters.

In service, the dual-plate configuration means the grill can handle a reasonable range of menu items without a plate changeover mid-shift. Sandwiches, focaccia, chicken fillets, halloumi, pressed wraps and similar items all suit this format well. The glass ceramic plates heat evenly and retain temperature across successive covers, which matters during a busy lunch or brunch service when the grill is in near-constant use.

From an operational standpoint, the Spidoglass offers several practical advantages:

  • Glass ceramic plates are non-porous, making them straightforward to wipe down between covers and clean thoroughly at the end of service
  • Manual lid operation gives chefs direct control over contact pressure, useful when cooking items of varying thickness
  • Compact footprint suits counter-top placement in kitchens where worktop space is at a premium
  • 304 stainless steel construction handles the heat, steam and daily cleaning that commercial kitchens require

Installation is straightforward — this is a plug-in countertop unit requiring only a suitable electrical supply and adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation and safe operation. There are no gas connections, water feeds or extraction requirements specific to the grill itself, though any kitchen running hot cooking equipment should have appropriate general ventilation in place. At 14.9kg it is light enough to reposition on the counter as workflow dictates.

This model is well suited to cafés, wine bars, small restaurants and hotel breakfast operations where a grill is in regular but not relentless use. It handles a solid volume of covers across a shift without being an over-specified piece of kit for the environment. For sites running very high volumes continuously — a busy city-centre lunch operation, for instance — a heavier-duty multi-plate or higher-wattage unit may be worth considering instead.

If you are unsure whether this grill matches your service pattern or menu requirements, the team is happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.

Frequently asked questions

Is this grill suitable for a busy lunch service running back-to-back covers?

The Spidoglass is well suited to regular commercial use through a lunch or brunch service, handling items like sandwiches, wraps, chicken and vegetables in rotation. For very high-volume operations where the grill would be in near-continuous use across multiple long shifts, it is worth speaking to us about whether a heavier-duty unit would better match the demand.

What does manual operation mean in practice, and is it easy to use?

Manual on this grill means the lid is lowered and raised by hand, with no timers or automated programmes — the operator controls contact pressure and cooking time directly. This keeps the grill simple to operate and quick to learn, which is useful in kitchens with varied staffing levels.

How straightforward are the glass ceramic plates to clean?

Glass ceramic is non-porous, so food residue does not bond into the surface in the way it can with cast iron or bare steel. Between covers a wipe-down is generally sufficient, and a thorough clean at the end of service is quicker than with traditional plate materials — an advantage in kitchens where closing-down time is tight.
