Table Forks: Olympia, Amefa and Others

The Olympia Tivoli table fork is an 18/10 stainless steel fork with a distinctive hammered, dappled surface finish. The pattern gives each piece a subtle textural quality that reads as rustic or industrial depending on the setting, making it a practical choice for restaurants, gastropubs, and casual dining venues that want their table presentation to feel considered rather than generic.

In service, the high-polish base beneath the hammered finish catches the light well, which tends to read positively on a laid table. The 18/10 stainless steel construction provides the corrosion resistance and structural integrity needed for repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without discolouration or distortion over time — a practical consideration when covers are high and cutlery is turning over quickly.

• Hammered finish adds visual character without sacrificing durability
• 18/10 stainless steel grade resists staining and corrosion under regular commercial washing
• Sold in packs of 12, making stock rotation and top-up ordering straightforward
• Suited to relaxed dining, gastropub, and rustic or industrial-themed interiors

It is worth considering how the Tivoli finish fits within your existing table setting. The textured surface is a deliberate design choice, so it works best where the overall look supports it. If your venue runs a more formal or contemporary scheme, a plain polished pattern from the same range may sit more comfortably. For very high-volume operations, it is worth assessing par levels carefully — having adequate stock in circulation reduces pressure on your wash-up cycle during a busy service.

If you are building out a full cover setting or need guidance on quantities for your service volume, the team is happy to talk it through.

The Olympia Harley table fork is a straightforward, everyday piece of flatware finished in high-polish 18/0 stainless steel. The design features a simple etched double-step detail on the handle — understated enough to suit a range of table settings without drawing attention away from the food.

18/0 stainless steel is the standard specification for commercial cutlery used in high-turnover environments. It offers reliable corrosion resistance and holds its finish well under repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which is the practical test that matters most in a busy operation. It is less resistant to pitting than 18/10 grade over the very long term, so operators running high-chloride glasswasher chemicals should be aware of that distinction.

Sold in packs of twelve, the Harley fork is practical to stock and straightforward to replenish. It suits cafés, pub restaurants, staff canteens, and mid-market dining operations where a clean, consistent table presentation is needed without a significant outlay per cover.

If your operation runs a more formal setting or requires a heavier handle weight for a premium table feel, it is worth considering whether a higher-specification pattern from the range would better match your front-of-house positioning. For volume casual dining or high-turnover all-day service, the Harley is a sensible, cost-effective choice.

If you are building out a new cover count or matching to an existing pattern, the team is happy to advise on quantities and complementary pieces before you order.

The Olympia Kings table fork is a classically styled piece of flatware finished in high-polish 18/0 stainless steel. The handle carries a regency crest pattern that gives the range a formal, traditional character well suited to hotel dining, banqueting, and à la carte restaurant covers. Sold in packs of twelve, it is practical for both initial stocking and ongoing replenishment as part of a larger cutlery complement.

18/0 stainless steel contains no nickel, which makes it more affordable than 18/10 grades but marginally less resistant to corrosion over very long periods. In practice, it performs reliably through commercial dishwasher cycles when handled and stored correctly, and is a sensible choice where budget management across high cover volumes is a consideration. The high-polish finish presents well on the table but does show water marks if cutlery is not dried or polished before service — a standard front-of-house task in most operations.

The Kings pattern is a long-established design within Olympia's range, which means replacement pieces and matching items across the full cutlery set are consistently available. This matters for operators who need to maintain a coherent table setting over time without sourcing from multiple suppliers.

If you are building out a full flatware complement or are unsure how many covers to stock for your service style, we are happy to help you work through the quantities before you order.

The Olympia Baguette table fork is a straightforward, classically styled piece of cutlery finished in highly polished 18/0 stainless steel. At 210mm in length, it sits within the standard table fork range and follows the clean, understated lines of the Baguette pattern — a design commonly found in hotel restaurants, bistros, and mid-market dining rooms where a consistent, professional table presentation is expected.

18/0 stainless steel is a widely used grade in commercial catering cutlery. It offers reliable corrosion resistance under regular commercial dishwasher cycles and holds its polish well over time with normal care. It lacks the nickel content of 18/10, which means it is slightly less resistant to pitting in particularly harsh dishwasher environments, but for most foodservice operations it performs dependably and represents sound value across the life of the piece.

Sold in packs of 12, the Baguette table fork suits operators building or refreshing a cutlery set who want a coherent, uniform look across a full table setting. The Baguette pattern extends across the broader Olympia range, making it straightforward to match with complementary pieces — knives, dessert forks, spoons — for a consistent cover.

If you are equipping a new dining room, calculating cover quantities, or mixing patterns across a larger operation, it is worth having a conversation before you order. The team is happy to help work through what you need.

The Olympia Mayfair table fork is a classically styled piece of flatware finished in highly polished 18/0 stainless steel. It sits within Olympia's Mayfair range, which follows a traditional profile suited to formal and semi-formal table settings across hotels, restaurants, and function venues.

18/0 stainless steel contains no nickel, which makes it a practical choice where cost management is a priority and where pieces are likely to see high-frequency use, frequent machine washing, and inevitable replacement over time. The polished finish presents well on the table and is straightforward to maintain through standard commercial dishwasher cycles.

For front-of-house operations, consistent cutlery across covers matters. Buying in packs of 12 allows for straightforward stock management, whether you are setting up a new restaurant, replacing attrition losses, or standardising across a multi-room venue. Key practical points worth noting:

• Classic design sits comfortably alongside formal tableware and white napery
• 18/0 grade is dishwasher-safe and suited to high-cycle commercial use
• Polished finish cleans and dries cleanly with standard commercial methods
• Pack quantity supports bulk stocking without excessive over-ordering

It is worth being aware that 18/0 stainless steel, while durable and practical, does not carry the same corrosion resistance as 18/10 grade. For coastal or high-humidity environments, or where longevity per piece is a higher priority than replacement cost, a higher-grade cutlery range may be worth considering.

If you are equipping a new site or matching an existing range, our team are happy to discuss what works best for your covers, service style, and budget.

The Olympia Monaco table fork is a mid-weight commercial cutlery piece finished in 18/0 stainless steel with a high-polish surface. The stepped double-edge handle design gives the range a clean, classic appearance that sits comfortably across a broad range of dining environments, from casual restaurant settings to more formal table covers.

18/0 stainless steel is the standard specification for high-volume catering operations. It is durable under repeated commercial dishwasher cycles and straightforward to maintain, though it is worth noting that 18/0 contains no nickel, which means it is marginally less resistant to corrosion over time compared with 18/10 grades. For most busy restaurant and hospitality operations this presents no practical issue, and the grade is widely used across pub dining, contract catering, and hotel food and beverage.

Practical advantages for service teams include:

• High-polish finish resists surface marking in day-to-day service
• Consistent weight and balance across the Monaco range aids cover-laying efficiency
• Sold in packs of 12, making stock management and re-ordering straightforward
• Compatible with standard commercial dishwasher baskets and cutlery cylinders

The Monaco range is well suited to operators who need a reliable, presentable cutlery pattern at a sensible price point, and where matching across multiple piece types — forks, knives, spoons — is important for a coherent table setting. It is a practical choice for mid-market dining, contract catering, and hospitality venues running high covers.

If you are equipping a new site or looking to standardise across a range, it is worth having a conversation about quantities, patterns, and storage before placing an order — we are happy to help work through the detail.

The Amefa Opus table fork is a stainless steel piece from Amefa's Opus range, designed for everyday use in commercial dining environments. The handle profile has a clean, understated character that sits comfortably across a range of cover styles, from casual dining through to more formal table settings.

In practice, Opus cutlery is a reliable choice for operations that need consistent presentation across a large number of covers without constant replacement. Stainless steel construction gives it durability under the repeated demands of commercial dishwashing cycles, and the finish is designed to hold its appearance over extended use rather than dulling quickly under heavy-duty conditions.

For front-of-house teams, the practical advantages come down to a few straightforward points:

• Holds its finish through regular commercial dishwasher cycles
• Consistent weight and balance across the range aids polishing and laying at volume
• Understated design suits mixed table settings without clashing
• Stainless steel construction offers good resistance to everyday corrosion
• Suitable for high-turnover covers where replacement cost matters

There are no special storage or handling requirements. Standard cutlery trays and roll storage work well. For very high-volume operations running multiple sittings per service, it is worth assessing the full quantity needed to avoid running short mid-service — a common oversight when ordering cutlery for the first time.

Opus is well suited to restaurants, hotels, contract catering operations, and similar hospitality environments where durability and a clean, neutral aesthetic are priorities. If you are fitting out a venue with a very specific design brief at either end of the formality scale, it is worth considering whether a more decorative or more purely functional pattern would serve better.

If you are ordering for a full venue or want to confirm the right quantity for your covers, our team is happy to help you work through it.

The Amefa Drift table fork is a mid-weight stainless steel fork from Amefa's Drift range, designed for use in restaurant, hotel, and hospitality table settings. It is made from 18/10 stainless steel, a grade commonly specified in commercial catering for its balance of durability and resistance to tarnishing and corrosion over repeated wash cycles.

In practice, cutlery in busy covers environments goes through a great deal — high-temperature dishwasher cycles, daily handling, and prolonged contact with acidic foods. The 18/10 construction holds up well under these conditions, retaining its finish over time without the pitting or discolouration that lower-grade alloys can develop. The Drift pattern itself is clean and unfussy, which tends to suit a wide range of dining room styles without dating quickly.

• 18/10 stainless steel construction for long-term corrosion resistance
• Polished finish suitable for formal and informal covers
• Handles repeated commercial dishwasher cycles reliably
• Consistent weight and balance for a comfortable table presence
• Part of a coordinated range, simplifying multi-piece table setting

There are no complex installation considerations — this is a straightforward smallware. The main practical decisions are quantity relative to your cover count and whether the Drift pattern coordinates with your existing table setting. For high-turnover operations, having sufficient stock to allow for breakage, loss, and rotation through the wash is worth factoring into your order quantity.

The Drift fork is well suited to restaurants, hotels, contract caterers, and event venues looking for reliable, presentable cutlery at a sensible price point. Operators needing something heavier or with a more distinctive profile may find other patterns in the range a closer match for their setting.

If you are building a new cover specification or replacing existing cutlery across a large operation, it is worth a conversation to make sure the pattern, weight, and quantity work for your service — we are happy to help you work through the options.

The Abert Matisse table fork is a straightforward, well-made piece of flatware from a manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the hospitality industry. Abert has been producing cutlery in Italy since 1929, and the Matisse range reflects that background: a clean, unfussy profile in 18/10 stainless steel with a highly polished finish. It is the sort of cutlery that works across a wide range of dining environments without drawing attention to itself — which is often exactly what operators need.

In a service environment, consistency and durability matter more than appearance alone. The 18/10 stainless steel composition gives the fork good resistance to corrosion and staining through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, and the polished finish tends to hold up well over time compared to satin or brushed alternatives that can show wear more readily. The Matisse profile is light and understated, which suits mid-range dining settings where the focus is on food rather than table theatre.

Practical points worth noting when specifying cutlery for a new or expanding operation:

• 18/10 stainless steel offers reliable corrosion resistance through high-frequency dishwasher use
• Classic, neutral profile suits a range of table settings from casual dining to mid-market restaurants
• Sold in packs of 12, which aligns with standard cover-based ordering
• Polished finish is straightforward to maintain and inspect for damage
• A well-established pattern from a manufacturer with consistent production standards

Supplied in packs of 12, making it practical to order in multiples aligned to your cover count. For very high-volume operations or venues with heavier handling requirements, it is worth considering whether a heavier-gauge pattern might be more appropriate for the long term.

If you are building out a full cutlery specification or need to match existing flatware patterns across a site, we are happy to talk through what works for your service style and volume.

The Abert City table fork is part of a consistently popular cutlery range from Abert, an Italian manufacturer with a long-standing reputation in the foodservice industry. The City pattern features flowing curves and a high-polish finish, giving it a clean, contemporary look that works well across a range of dining environments — from casual restaurant settings through to more formal table covers.

Made from 18/10 stainless steel, this fork offers good corrosion resistance and holds its appearance well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. The 4mm gauge construction gives it a solid feel in the hand without being overly heavy, which tends to suit most front-of-house operations where cutlery handling volume is high.

Supplied in packs of 12, the City range is straightforward to build into stock rotation. Key practical points worth noting:

• 18/10 stainless steel composition resists staining and tarnishing in daily service
• High-polish finish maintains appearance through commercial dishwasher use
• 4mm gauge provides a balanced, substantial feel without excess weight
• Contemporary curved design suits a wide range of table settings and cover styles
• Pack of 12 supports straightforward par stock management

For most operations, the City range sits in the mid-tier of commercial cutlery — a practical choice where appearance matters but budget remains a consideration. If you're equipping a high-turnover operation or have specific pattern-matching requirements across multiple pieces, it's worth discussing your full cover requirements before ordering in volume.

If you'd like guidance on quantities, pattern matching across the City range, or suitability for your service style, the team is happy to help.

The Olympia Torino table fork is a mid-weight, contemporary cutlery pattern finished in high-polish 18/10 stainless steel. The handle features a subtle wave profile that sits comfortably in the hand and gives the range a distinctive look without veering into anything overly decorative. Forks are sold in packs of twelve, which suits both initial stock builds and top-up purchasing.

18/10 stainless steel is the standard specification for commercial cutlery intended for regular machine washing. The higher nickel content in this grade gives it good resistance to the staining and corrosion that can occur in busy dishwasher cycles, and the high-polish finish is straightforward to keep presentable in service.

The Torino pattern works well in casual dining, brasserie, and hotel restaurant settings where operators want a clean, modern table presentation without committing to a heavily styled or premium-priced range. It is a practical everyday pattern rather than a fine-dining statement piece.

Cutlery losses and damage are a routine operational cost in most hospitality businesses. Buying in packs of twelve makes it straightforward to maintain par levels without over-ordering, and the Torino range is available across multiple cover pieces if you are looking to run a consistent pattern across the table.

If you are building out a full cutlery specification or are unsure how many covers to stock for, the team is happy to talk through quantities and pattern options with you.

The Olympia Napoli table fork is a slim, geometric-profile fork finished in high-polish 18/10 stainless steel. The 18/10 grade indicates the chromium and nickel content of the steel, which contributes to corrosion resistance and helps the fork retain its appearance through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles. Forks are sold in packs of 12, making it straightforward to order in quantities that match cover counts.

In day-to-day service, the Napoli pattern suits contemporary restaurant settings where a clean, modern table presentation is the aim. The high-polish finish is practical as well as presentable — it shows marks less readily during service and polishes up quickly during linen prep. For operators running multiple sittings, having consistent, well-finished cutlery across covers helps maintain a cohesive table standard without constant replacement.

• 18/10 stainless steel construction supports durability through heavy commercial dishwasher use
• High-polish finish is straightforward to maintain during service prep
• Slim geometric profile suits modern and contemporary table settings
• Sold in packs of 12 for easy stock management against cover counts

As with all cutlery at this specification, it is worth considering your full cover count and the number of sittings per service when calculating order quantities. Operators typically hold stock equivalent to at least two full covers to allow for dishwasher turnaround. The Napoli range covers multiple pieces beyond the table fork, so coordinating across the full pattern is worth considering if you are setting a new cover or refreshing an existing one.

If you are unsure how many packs to order or want to confirm the Napoli pattern works alongside other tableware you are sourcing, the team is happy to help you work through the numbers.

The Olympia Roma table fork is a forged 18/10 stainless steel fork finished to a high polish. The design features smooth, flowing curves that taper into a scooped teardrop handle — a classic profile that sits comfortably alongside both traditional and contemporary table settings without drawing attention to itself.

In practical terms, 18/10 stainless steel is a reliable choice for commercial cutlery. The higher nickel content gives it good resistance to corrosion and maintains the polished finish through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles, which matters in operations where covers are turned quickly and cutlery goes through the wash multiple times a day. Forged construction also adds a reassuring weight and rigidity compared to stamped alternatives.

This fork is well suited to restaurants, hotels, cafés, and contract catering operations looking for a presentable, durable everyday table fork that won't need constant replacement. It's a practical mid-range choice — not a lightweight budget piece, but not priced as fine-dining silverware either. Operations with very high cover volumes or formal dining requirements may want to consider a heavier gauge or more substantial pattern from elsewhere in the range.

Cutlery selection is often more nuanced than it first appears — pattern consistency across a full table setting, matching existing pieces, or specifying the right quantity for your cover count and wash cycle frequency are all worth thinking through. If you'd like a hand working out quantities or confirming pattern compatibility, the team is happy to help.

The Olympia Henley table fork is a straightforward, well-finished piece of cutlery designed for everyday use in commercial dining environments. Made from 18/0 stainless steel with a high-polish finish, it offers a clean, classic appearance that suits a wide range of table settings, from casual dining to more formal restaurant service.

In a busy front-of-house environment, cutlery takes a considerable amount of daily handling, washing, and restacking. The Henley's 18/0 stainless steel construction is practical for high-turnover operations — it's a corrosion-resistant alloy that holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without discolouring or pitting under normal conditions. The slim handle profile keeps the fork proportionate and comfortable in the hand without adding unnecessary bulk to a cover setting.

Sold in packs of 12, the Henley range is straightforward to order in the quantities needed to maintain adequate cover numbers and allow for breakage or loss over time. Key practical points worth noting:

• 18/0 stainless steel — durable and dishwasher safe for commercial use
• High-polish finish suits a broad range of table settings
• Slim handle design keeps place settings neat and uncluttered
• Sold by the dozen, making stock management straightforward
• Part of a wider Henley range, allowing consistent cutlery matching across courses

This fork is well suited to mid-volume restaurants, pub dining, cafes, and contract catering operations where reliable, presentable cutlery is needed in consistent quantity. It is not a premium silverware-weight piece, so operations seeking a heavier gauge or a more formal place setting may want to consider a higher-specification pattern from the wider range.

If you're working out quantities for a full cover build or need help matching across the Henley pattern, we're happy to assist — just get in touch with the team.

The Olympia Jesmond table fork is a polished 18/0 stainless steel cutlery piece with a shell motif pressed into the handle. It sits within Olympia's Jesmond pattern range, which is designed to offer a consistent, traditional table setting at a practical price point for commercial operators.

18/0 stainless steel contains no nickel, which makes it more susceptible to surface marking over time compared to 18/10 grades, but it remains a widely used and perfectly serviceable choice for high-turnover catering environments where cutlery sees heavy daily use and frequent machine washing. The polished finish is straightforward to maintain and presents well on the table.

Sold in packs of twelve, the Jesmond fork suits operators who need to build or replenish a cover count efficiently without committing to larger bulk quantities. It is commonly used in pub dining rooms, cafés, and mid-range restaurants where a recognisable traditional pattern is preferred over contemporary flatware designs.

For very high-volume operations or establishments with a longer-term view on cutlery quality and longevity, it is worth considering whether an 18/10 grade alternative within the range would better suit the service environment. If you are unsure which cutlery specification is right for your covers and wash cycle volume, we are happy to talk it through.

The Olympia Dubarry table fork is a straightforward, well-proportioned piece of cutlery designed for everyday front-of-house use in commercial hospitality settings. Made from polished 18/0 stainless steel, it offers a clean, classic appearance that sits comfortably across a broad range of table settings — from casual dining to mid-market restaurants.

18/0 stainless steel is a practical choice for high-turnover operations. It holds its polished finish well under regular commercial dishwashing cycles and resists the day-to-day wear expected in busy service environments. The rounded edge profile gives the piece a neat, unobtrusive look without veering into heavily styled territory.

Sold in dozens, the Dubarry table fork suits operators looking to build or refresh a functional cutlery set without significant outlay per cover. Key practical points worth noting:

• Polished 18/0 stainless steel construction — durable under repeated dishwasher cycles
• Classic profile suitable for a range of dining styles and table presentations
• Sold in packs of 12, making cover calculations and stock management straightforward
• Consistent sizing across the Dubarry range supports cohesive place settings
• Lightweight enough for casual dining; presentable enough for mid-market covers

For very high-end or fine dining environments, an 18/10 grade cutlery range may offer a more premium finish and greater long-term corrosion resistance. For volume casual dining and contract catering, the Dubarry represents a sensible, cost-effective option.

If you're equipping a new site or calculating quantities across multiple tables and sittings, the team is happy to help work through what you'll need.

The Olympia Bead table fork is a straightforward, mid-range piece of cutlery in high-polish 18/0 stainless steel, finished with a classic beaded border detail along the handle. It is a widely used pattern in commercial hospitality settings where a clean, traditional look is needed without the cost associated with higher-grade flatware.

18/0 stainless steel contains no nickel, which makes it less corrosion-resistant than 18/10 grades over the long term. In practice, this means it performs reliably in moderate-use environments and through regular commercial dishwasher cycles, though operators running very high-volume covers day after day may find a nickel-bearing grade holds its finish longer. For the right setting, it represents good value and consistent presentation across a full table lay.

Practical considerations for buying cutlery in this grade:

• Suited to casual dining, cafés, canteens, and mid-range restaurant covers
• High-polish finish is easy to check and present quickly during service
• Compatible with standard commercial dishwasher cycles
• The beaded border pattern is a classic profile that sits well in traditional table settings
• Sold in packs of 12, making it straightforward to top up existing stock

This fork is best suited to operators looking for a cost-effective, presentable cutlery solution for everyday covers. For high-end dining where longevity and finish retention are priorities, an 18/10 grade would be worth considering. If you are unsure which cutlery grade or pattern is right for your service style, we are happy to talk it through.

The Olympia Kelso table fork is a plain-pattern cutlery piece in high-polish 18/0 stainless steel, sold in packs of twelve. The Kelso range has established itself as one of Olympia's more consistently specified lines, and it's not difficult to see why — the unfussy design suits a wide range of dining settings without drawing attention to itself.

In day-to-day service, 18/0 stainless steel performs reliably under the demands of commercial dishwashing. It lacks the small nickel content found in 18/10 steel, which means it is marginally more susceptible to surface dulling over many hundreds of wash cycles, but in practice the difference is modest and the Kelso holds its finish well for a cutlery piece at this price point. It is a practical choice for operators who need to maintain adequate cover counts without significant ongoing outlay.

The Kelso fork suits casual dining, pub food, staff canteens, cafés, and event catering where a clean, neutral presentation is more important than a premium table setting. Operations with a more formal dining offer or higher-end positioning may prefer a pattern in 18/10 steel, while very high-volume sites running large cover counts may find it worth considering a heavier-gauge option for longer service life.

If you're putting together a full cutlery specification or matching pieces across a table setting, the team are happy to help ensure you have the right patterns, quantities, and grades to suit your operation.
