Elia Buckets Coolers and Stands

The Elia ice bucket is a straightforward chrome-finish service piece designed for presenting and serving ice at the table or bar. At 1.3 litres it holds a practical quantity of ice for a small group or a single bottle, and the included tongs allow for hygienic self-service without the need for separate utensils.

Made from chrome and weighing 640g, it sits in the lighter end of the commercial barware range — robust enough for regular service use without being cumbersome to carry or store. The hinged handle makes it easy to move between stations or deliver to a table without the bucket feeling unwieldy.

In practical bar and restaurant use, this style of bucket suits environments where table presentation matters and staff need something reliable that's easy to clean and quick to restock during a busy service. It works well as part of a broader bar setup alongside wine coolers and champagne stands.

• Compact size suitable for single-bottle or small-group service
• Tongs included for hygienic guest self-service
• Hinged carry handle for easy table delivery
• Chrome finish presents well in both formal and informal settings
• Lightweight build reduces fatigue during high-turnover service

This is a single-unit piece suited to most bar and restaurant operations. For venues needing larger capacity or heavier-gauge service items for more demanding environments, broader options are available within the range.

If you're building out a bar setup or matching pieces across a service range, the team are happy to advise on what works well together.

This wine cooler from Elia is a straightforward, well-made piece of table service equipment. Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel with a satin body and mirror-polished rim, it presents cleanly on the table without drawing unnecessary attention to itself — which is exactly what front-of-house smallwares should do.

The double-wall construction serves a practical purpose: it slows the rate at which a chilled bottle warms and keeps condensation off the exterior, so tables stay dry and presentable during service. The 200mm diameter comfortably takes a standard 750ml wine bottle and will accommodate most champagne and sparkling wine bottles without difficulty. It can also hold two bottles where table service calls for it.

In day-to-day use, the benefits are largely about consistency and presentation:

• Keeps bottles at serving temperature for longer during seated service
• No condensation on the exterior, protecting linen and table surfaces
• The satin finish is practical — it shows fewer handling marks than a full mirror finish
• Compatible with Elia table-mounted stands for venues that prefer an elevated presentation
• The 18/10 grade resists corrosion well in regular commercial use

There are no installation requirements — this is a passive, standalone piece. It should be hand-washed to preserve the finish; commercial dishwasher cycles can dull the satin surface over time.

This cooler is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, wine bars, and function venues where presentation standards matter. For very high-volume banqueting operations running large numbers simultaneously, it is worth considering whether a heavier-gauge or higher-capacity option would better suit the throughput.

If you are specifying table service smallwares across a new opening or refurbishment and want to make sure items work together visually and practically, the team is happy to help with that conversation.

The Elia table mountable wine cooler holder is a simple, practical piece of barware designed to keep a wine or champagne cooler secure at the table edge, rather than occupying surface space. Constructed from 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror finish, it presents neatly alongside glassware and other table settings without drawing attention to itself.

In a busy restaurant or bar environment, table space is rarely surplus. Positioning the cooler off the main surface gives waiting staff more room to work around covers and reduces the risk of knocks during service. Rubber feet on the mount protect table surfaces from scratching and help keep the unit stable throughout the meal.

The practical advantages for front-of-house teams are straightforward:

• Keeps wine and champagne coolers accessible without occupying table space
• Mirror-finish stainless steel presents well across most dining room styles
• Rubber feet protect table surfaces during service
• Designed to integrate with compatible Elia wine cooler models for a consistent look
• Simple to position, reposition, and clean down between covers

It is worth confirming compatibility with your existing wine coolers before ordering, as this holder is designed to work with specific models within the Elia barware range. If you are building out a coordinated service setup or are unsure which pieces work together, the team are happy to help you put the right combination together.

This Elia bottle cooler is a double-wall insulated single-bottle cooler finished in satin 18/10 stainless steel. It is designed to keep a standard wine or champagne bottle at serving temperature on the table without requiring ice or water — a practical alternative to a traditional ice bucket for table and counter service settings.

The double-wall construction does the work quietly. It holds bottle temperature for a reasonable period through a sitting, reducing the need for staff to return with ice top-ups during service. The wide opening accommodates most standard wine and champagne bottle formats without difficulty. Because the cooler holds temperature through insulation rather than ice melt, there is no condensation pooling on the table, which helps maintain a clean table presentation throughout the cover.

From a practical standpoint, this cooler offers a few clear operational advantages:

• No ice required — reduces preparation time and cellar demand during service
• Satin finish resists fingerprints and surface marks under regular handling
• No condensation means no need for drip trays or linen protection on the table
• Straightforward to clean between covers — no internal scale build-up from ice water
• Compatible with Elia table stands for freestanding presentation where required

There are no installation requirements — this is a front-of-house tableware item that needs only to be chilled before service, typically by pre-cooling the cooler itself in a refrigerator alongside the bottle. It is worth noting that insulated coolers of this type are not a substitute for proper pre-chilling; the cooler maintains temperature, it does not reduce it significantly from ambient.

This cooler is well suited to restaurants, hotel dining rooms, wine bars, and event catering operations where a clean, ice-free table presentation is preferred. For very high-volume operations where multiple bottles per table are routine, a larger capacity bucket or a traditional ice cooler may be more practical.

This wine cooler stand from Elia is a floor-standing piece of front-of-house service equipment, designed to hold a wine or champagne bucket at table height during service. Constructed from heavy-gauge 18/10 stainless steel with a mirror polish finish, it presents well in formal dining environments and complements the broader Elia barware range.

The curved base and weighted construction are practical design choices rather than decorative ones. In a busy restaurant or banqueting environment, a stand that can be nudged by a passing trolley or a guest's chair needs to be inherently stable. The solid central bar and low centre of gravity help keep the bucket secure throughout service without staff needing to reposition it.

From an operational standpoint, the stand works well for table-side wine or champagne service where bottles need to remain chilled and accessible without being left on the table. It coordinates with Elia's own wine cooler buckets, which means the proportions and finish are matched rather than approximate — a detail that matters in higher-end dining rooms where consistency in service equipment is expected.

• Suited to restaurants, hotels, and banqueting operations with table-side wine service
• Mirror polish finish maintains appearance through regular service use
• Compatible with Elia wine cooler buckets for a matched service presentation
• Weighted base reduces risk of tipping in busy floor environments

This is a straightforward piece of service kit, but getting the right stand for your bucket size and service style does matter. If you're equipping multiple covers or want to confirm compatibility with your existing Elia buckets, the team are happy to help.

This wine cooler from Elia is a straightforward table-service piece designed to keep a single bottle of wine or champagne at the correct serving temperature throughout the meal. Constructed from stainless steel with a mirror-polished finish, it is built for front-of-house use where presentation matters alongside practicality.

The double-wall construction does two useful things in a busy dining room: it slows the rate at which a chilled bottle warms up, and it keeps the exterior of the cooler dry. That second point matters more than it might seem — condensation pooling on a tablecloth or dripping onto a guest is a common small irritation that this design avoids entirely.

• Condensation-free exterior protects table linen and surfaces during service
• Double-wall insulation extends the window for correct serving temperature
• Mirror-polished finish suits both formal and casual dining environments
• Tapered profile accommodates standard wine and champagne bottle sizes
• Compatible with the Elia curved wine cooler stand for elevated table presentation

It is worth noting that this cooler maintains temperature rather than chilling a warm bottle — bottles should be correctly chilled before service. For operations running a high volume of covers or large banqueting events, it is worth considering whether a larger-format cooler or a coordinated set would better suit the pace of service.
