The Utopia Casablanca Hi Ball is a fully toughened glass in a clean, straightforward tall format. At 370ml it sits squarely in the standard hi ball range, making it a practical choice for long mixed drinks, soft drinks, cordials, and juices. Sold in a pack of 48, it is well suited to setting up an opening par or replenishing attrition losses across a busy outlet without placing multiple smaller orders.
Toughened glassware is the practical default for most licensed and food service environments. The tempering process improves resistance to thermal shock and routine handling compared with standard glass, and it means these glasses are suitable for commercial glasswashers — which matters when you are cycling through covers at pace and need glassware back on the bar quickly. It is worth being clear, though, that no toughened glass is unbreakable; in high-volume bar environments some breakage is inevitable, and holding adequate stock is simply part of managing that sensibly.
The Casablanca's unfussy silhouette avoids the heavily branded or overly styled look of some ranges, which gives it flexibility across different venue types and service formats. It works as comfortably in a pub bar or casual dining room as it does in a hotel food and beverage operation.
- Fully toughened for improved resistance to thermal shock and everyday handling
- Glasswasher safe, supporting efficient turnaround during service
- Classic, neutral shape suits a broad range of drinks and venue styles
- Pack of 48 supports opening stock requirements and ongoing attrition management
If you are working out how many glasses to hold per cover, or whether this size and style fits your particular service format, the team is happy to talk it through.
£18.36(£22.03 inc VAT)
The Utopia Centra Hi Ball is a 290ml blown glass tumbler designed for everyday bar and restaurant service. It features a decorative bubble detail in the base, giving it a clean, contemporary appearance that works well across a range of service styles without looking out of place in either a casual pub setting or a more polished dining environment.
In practice, this is a practical, mid-weight glass suited to soft drinks, mixers, and long cocktails. The blown construction gives reasonable durability for regular service use, and the glasswasher-safe rating means it can go straight through a commercial glasswasher without special handling — an important consideration when turnover is fast and staff are under pressure during service.
- Glasswasher safe for straightforward back-bar workflow
- Bubble base detail adds visual interest without complicating stacking or storage
- 290ml capacity suits standard long-drink and mixer serves
- Supplied in a pack of six, practical for topping up existing stock
Glassware does break in a busy operation, and buying in sensible pack quantities helps keep replacement costs manageable. These are sold as a pack of six, which suits operators looking to supplement existing stock or trial the style before committing to larger quantities. For higher-volume venues needing to outfit a full bar, larger case quantities may be worth discussing.
If you're unsure whether this glass suits your serve style or you'd like to talk through your full glassware requirements, the team is happy to help.
£91.38(£109.66 inc VAT)
The RCR Cristalleria Soul hi-ball tumbler is a 352ml glass designed for bar and casual dining use. It features a split aesthetic — one half of the glass carries a textured decorative finish, the other half is left smooth — giving it a distinctive appearance without being overly ornate. It is sold in packs of twelve, which suits initial stock builds and ongoing replacement purchasing alike.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, glassware takes consistent punishment. The Soul tumbler is built with durability in mind, and the sturdy construction holds up well against the stacking, washing, and repeated handling that comes with a working service. The weight and feel sit comfortably in the mid-range — solid enough to feel considered, without being cumbersome to handle at pace.
Practical advantages for operators include:
- Consistent 352ml capacity supports standardised serves and portion control
- Decorative profile adds visual appeal without requiring premium glassware spend
- Pack-of-12 format simplifies stock management and reordering
- Sturdy construction reduces breakage frequency in day-to-day service
- Suitable for commercial glasswasher use in most front-of-house settings
These tumblers are well suited to pubs, bars, casual dining restaurants, and hotel food and beverage operations. They work particularly well where operators want something that looks the part without committing to a fragile or high-maintenance glassware range. For high-volume venues turning over glassware at significant pace, it is worth considering whether a heavier-gauge commercial option might offer a better long-term cost per use.
If you are building out a glassware range or have questions about quantities and mix for your operation, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£47.18(£56.62 inc VAT)
The Arcoroc Salto Ice Blue hi ball is a 350ml glass finished with a distinctive blue tint, supplied in a pack of 24. It sits within Arcoroc's Salto range, which is designed with a straight-sided, stackable profile that suits high-turnover bar and table service environments.
In operational terms, the tinted finish means the glass has a recognisable on-bar identity without requiring any additional decorative work. The straight profile makes stacking practical during service and simplifies storage in space-conscious back-of-house areas. Arcoroc glassware is manufactured to resist the knocks of busy service, and the Salto range in particular is commonly used in pubs, casual dining restaurants, and hotel bar operations where volume throughput matters.
- Straight-sided profile supports stable stacking during and after service
- Ice blue tint gives a consistent, recognisable look across the glassbar
- Supplied in packs of 24, suited to standard par-stock planning
- 350ml capacity works well for long drinks, soft drinks, and house cocktails
The glasses are glass construction, so standard commercial glasswasher use applies — check your glasswasher's rack configuration is suitable for the 76mm diameter base before committing to a large order. If you are building out a full glassware range or need to match existing Salto pieces, it is worth checking whether other formats in the range are also available.
This glass is well suited to casual dining, pub and bar operations, and hotel food and beverage outlets. It is a solid everyday hi ball rather than a premium crystal option, which makes it appropriate where replacement rates are a practical consideration.
If you have questions about pack sizing for your service volume or how this fits alongside other glassware in your outlet, the team is happy to help you work through it.
£30.29(£36.35 inc VAT)
The Onis Endeavor hi-ball tumbler is a straightforward, well-proportioned glassware option designed for beverage and cocktail service in commercial settings. Supplied in packs of 12, these 350ml tumblers are a practical choice for bars, restaurants, and hospitality operations that need reliable, consistent glassware across a busy service.
Onis applies their Xtratuff strengthening process to the Endeavor range, which improves resistance to both thermal and mechanical shock. In practice, this means the glass is better equipped to handle the everyday stresses of a working bar environment — rapid temperature changes from ice-filled drinks, the knocks and contact of high-turnover service, and regular passes through a commercial glasswasher. No glass is unbreakable, but treated glassware of this type tends to hold up more consistently over time than untreated alternatives.
From an operational standpoint, the Endeavor offers a few practical advantages:
- Stackable design reduces storage footprint behind the bar or in glasswasher racks
- Dishwasher safe, supporting quick turnaround between service periods
- Consistent sizing across the pack helps with portion control and presentation standards
- The Xtratuff treatment reduces the frequency of breakage-related replacement costs
There are no installation requirements for glassware, though it is worth considering storage depth and rack compatibility when ordering in volume. At 350ml, these sit in the mid-range for hi-ball capacity — suitable for standard long drinks and cocktail serves. If your menu runs to larger serve sizes, or if you require a more heavy-duty glass for a particularly high-turnover site, it is worth reviewing the broader range before committing to a volume order.
These tumblers are well suited to bars, pub restaurants, hotel food and beverage operations, and casual dining venues with moderate to high covers. If you are unsure whether this size and spec is the right match for your service style, we are happy to talk it through.
£10.91(£13.09 inc VAT)
The Arcoroc Salto hi ball is a 350ml tumbler designed for everyday use in commercial bar and front-of-house environments. The curved body gives it a contemporary profile that sits comfortably in the hand, and the proportions work well for a range of long drinks, cocktails, and soft-serve applications.
Arcoroc glassware is produced for the commercial hospitality market and is intended to withstand the demands of regular glass-washing cycles. The Salto range is a practical choice for operations that want a presentable hi ball glass without the fragility concerns that come with thinner, more decorative alternatives.
From an operational standpoint, this glass suits a variety of service styles:
- Suitable for bars, casual dining, and hotel beverage service
- Compatible with standard commercial glasswashers
- Curved profile reduces the likelihood of rolling on service trays
- Clear glass allows garnishes and layered drinks to present well
- Pack of 6 provides a practical starting quantity for smaller operations or topping up existing stock
It is worth noting that packs of 6 are best suited to smaller venues or as supplementary stock. Higher-volume operations — particularly busy bars running multiple sittings — may find it more practical to order in larger case quantities to reduce unit cost and maintain adequate cover during service.
If you are unsure how many covers to allow for or whether this glass works alongside your existing stemware selection, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£90.38(£108.46 inc VAT)
The Utopia Gatsby hiball is a polycarbonate drinking glass designed to replicate the look of traditional cut glassware. At 460ml capacity, it sits comfortably in the hiball format and suits a wide range of drinks service — soft drinks, water, cocktails, and long mixed drinks. The decorative cut-glass effect finish gives the appearance of real glassware, which can matter in front-of-house settings where presentation counts.
Polycarbonate construction means these glasses will not break, chip, or crack under normal service conditions. That makes them a practical choice in environments where glass breakage is a recurring cost or a safety concern — outdoor terraces, poolside bars, festival bars, and high-turnover casual dining all being typical use cases. The material is also stain resistant, which helps maintain appearance across a busy service.
Key practical advantages for operators include:
- Break, chip, and crack resistant — reduces replacement costs over time
- Glasswasher safe for straightforward, fast turnaround between service periods
- Cut-glass effect finish maintains a presentable front-of-house appearance
- Stain resistant polycarbonate helps retain appearance with regular use
- Supplied in a pack of 12, suitable for building up stock incrementally
It is worth noting that polycarbonate, while durable, can become scratched over time with heavy commercial use, and repeated high-temperature glasswasher cycles may cause some clouding. These glasses are well suited to venues where safety, breakage reduction, or outdoor use takes priority over the feel of genuine glassware.
These are a sensible choice for casual dining operators, bars with outdoor seating, event caterers, and leisure venues. If you are looking to equip a higher-volume site or want guidance on quantities relative to cover numbers, the team is happy to talk it through.
£38.73(£46.48 inc VAT)
The Schott Zwiesel Convention hi ball is a classic slim, tall glass made from crystal, designed for everyday commercial use across bars, restaurants and hotel room service. The profile is clean and unfussy — a straight-sided column with a rounded, stable base that sits securely on trays and surfaces during busy service.
Crystal construction gives the glass a clarity and weight that feels noticeably more substantial than standard soda-lime glass, which matters when presentation is part of the experience. The rounded base adds a degree of stability without sacrificing the slim, elegant profile that works well for long drinks, soft drinks, cocktails and juiced service alike.
From an operational standpoint, this style of glass is well suited to environments where consistent presentation across covers is important. The shape stacks and stores efficiently behind the bar and handles regular glasswasher cycles reliably when used with appropriate glasswasher chemistry and correct rack loading.
- Crystal construction for improved clarity and presentation
- Stable rounded base reduces spillage risk during service
- Slim profile suits bar wells, trays and room service setups
- Works across a wide range of long drinks and soft drink service
- Sold in packs of six for straightforward stock management
If you are equipping a new venue or refreshing glassware across a large site, it is worth considering your cover count, breakage rate and storage space before settling on quantities. The team is happy to talk through requirements if that would help.
£25.01(£30.01 inc VAT)
These Utopia Side hi ball glasses are a practical choice for bars, restaurants, and cafés serving soft drinks, cocktails, or long mixed drinks. The contemporary profile suits a range of front-of-house settings without leaning heavily into any particular style, making them a reliable everyday workhorse rather than a statement piece.
The heavy, solid base gives each glass a lower centre of gravity, which helps reduce the risk of knocks and spills during busy service — a small but meaningful consideration on a crowded bar top or when staff are moving quickly. The glasses are glasswasher safe, which matters in any commercial setting where fast turnaround between covers is essential.
- CE marked to confirm compliance with UK measure legislation
- Heavy base improves stability on bar tops and trays
- Glasswasher safe for efficient front-of-house turnaround
- Contemporary profile suits casual dining, bars, and café settings
- Sold in packs of 12, practical for stocking up or replacing breakages
These are an appropriate choice for most mid-volume licensed premises. For higher-turnover venues or where glass breakage is a persistent concern, it is worth considering whether a more robust or chip-resistant option from the wider range would better suit the operation.
If you are unsure how many packs to order for your cover count, or whether this style fits your service setup, we are happy to help you think it through.
£18.86(£22.63 inc VAT)
The Onis Gibraltar Original is a commercial hi ball glass with a distinctive eight-sided profile, supplied in packs of twelve. At 290ml capacity, it sits at the smaller end of the hi ball range and suits operations where portion control or a more considered serve presentation is the priority — cocktails, soft drinks, and mixer-based serves all work well in this format.
Onis treat these glasses with their Xtratuff process, which improves resistance to both thermal and mechanical shock. In a busy bar or restaurant environment, that means the glasses hold up better to the thermal cycling of repeated dishwasher runs and the everyday handling knocks of front-of-house service. They are fully dishwasher safe, which matters when turnaround speed post-service is a practical consideration.
- Eight-sided profile gives a clean, stackable presentation on the bar
- Xtratuff treatment improves resilience to chipping and thermal stress
- Dishwasher safe for efficient post-service turnaround
- Consistent form across the pack supports uniform serve presentation
- Compact 290ml format suits controlled pours and cocktail menus
These glasses are well suited to bars, casual dining operations, and hospitality venues looking for a reliable everyday hi ball that will stand up to regular commercial use without requiring careful handling. If your service volume is particularly high or you need a larger format for long drinks, it is worth considering whether a higher-capacity glass or a more heavy-duty specification would better match your requirements.
If you are unsure whether this size is the right fit for your menu or service style, we are happy to talk it through.
£134.00(£160.80 inc VAT)
The Luigi Bormioli Michelangelo Masterpiece hi ball glass is a commercial-grade glass designed for high-turnover bar and restaurant service. At 435ml capacity, it sits comfortably in the standard hi ball format — practical for long drinks, cocktails, soft drinks, and mocktails alike. The range is manufactured using Luigi Bormioli's Sparkx lead-free glass composition, which is engineered specifically to retain clarity and resist the cumulative effects of repeated commercial dishwashing.
In a busy service environment, glassware takes a significant amount of punishment — repeated high-temperature wash cycles, handling by multiple staff members across long shifts, and stacking during storage. The Michelangelo Masterpiece range is rated to withstand in excess of 2,000 commercial dishwasher cycles without meaningful deterioration in clarity or structural integrity. The glass also carries a 30% improvement in mechanical shock resistance compared to standard soda-lime glass, which matters in a real service setting where minor impacts are unavoidable.
- Maintains optical clarity after extensive commercial dishwasher use
- Enhanced mechanical shock resistance reduces breakage in active service
- Lead-free Sparkx glass composition with no compromise on visual quality
- Classic hi ball profile suits a wide range of drink formats
- Supplied in a trade pack of 24, practical for full bar setups
These glasses are supplied in cases of 24, which suits initial bar set-ups or top-up stock for existing operations. The classic profile stacks and stores efficiently, and the weight and balance feel considered for everyday front-of-house use rather than purely decorative.
This range is well suited to hotels, restaurants, cocktail bars, and casual dining venues where presentation matters but durability cannot be compromised. For very high-volume nightclub or festival environments where breakage rates are the primary concern, a more basic commercial glass may be more cost-effective. Equally, venues with a premium positioning will find the clarity of the Sparkx composition holds up well against more expensive options.
If you're unsure how many covers to stock for or whether this range fits your service style, the team is happy to help you work it through before you order.
£142.00(£170.40 inc VAT)
The Utopia Churchill hiball is a straight-sided, vertically bevelled tumbler made from crystal glass. It is a straightforward, no-nonsense hiball designed to look the part on a bar counter while being substantial enough to handle the rigours of a busy service.
Crystal glass gives the Churchill a clarity and weight that cheaper soda-lime alternatives lack. At 560g per glass, it sits firmly in the hand and on the bar top, which helps reduce accidental knockovers during a packed service. The pronounced base also serves a practical purpose — it keeps the glass stable when staff are pouring quickly or customers are reaching across a crowded bar.
From an operational standpoint, the straight-sided profile makes stacking in glasswashers straightforward, and the simple bevel detail does not create the hard-to-clean recesses that more ornate patterns can. Practical advantages worth noting:
- Crystal glass construction gives good clarity and a quality feel at the bar
- Heavy base reduces tipping and breakage during busy service
- Straight sides simplify glasswasher loading and stacking
- Clean bevel detail avoids awkward cleaning recesses
- Supplied in a pack of 24, suitable for stocking a bar from the outset
These glasses are well suited to pubs, bars, hotel bars, and casual dining venues serving long drinks, soft drinks, or cocktails in a classic format. The pack size of 24 is a practical quantity for a single bar station. For higher-volume venues running multiple stations, ordering additional packs is the straightforward approach rather than moving to a different glass.
If you are unsure how many glasses to stock relative to your cover count or glasswasher throughput, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£150.00(£180.00 inc VAT)
The Luigi Bormioli Diamante hi-ball glass is a commercial-grade beverage glass designed for cocktail and soft drink service. Part of Luigi Bormioli's Diamante range, it features an embossed surface pattern that adds visual texture to the glass without compromising its practical performance in a busy service environment.
These glasses are made from Luigi Bormioli's SON.hyx crystal, a material that combines genuine clarity with improved mechanical strength compared to standard soda-lime glass. The reinforced rim and increased shock resistance make them a practical choice for high-turnover bar and restaurant settings where breakage costs are a real operational concern. Luigi Bormioli's testing indicates they retain their clarity and finish well into a demanding dishwasher cycle programme, which matters when glasses are being turned around multiple times across a service.
- Embossed Diamante pattern adds visual interest without affecting stackability or grip
- Strengthened rims reduce chipping during handling and racking
- SON.hyx crystal maintains appearance after repeated commercial dishwasher cycles
- Lightweight construction reduces fatigue during busy service periods
- Supplied in a case of 24, suited to standard bar par stock requirements
As with any glassware purchase, it is worth considering how the pattern and profile fit your existing presentation style, and whether the 480ml capacity suits your serving measurements. The Diamante range sits at a mid-market point — appropriate for casual dining, bar and pub service, and hotel food and beverage operations. If your volume or breakage rate is particularly high, it may be worth discussing whether a plainer, higher-durability alternative would serve you better day to day.
If you are fitting out a new bar or refreshing existing stock across multiple covers, the team is happy to help you work through quantities and options before you commit.
£17.23(£20.68 inc VAT)
The Olympia Old Duke Hi Ball is a 350ml glass designed for cocktail and spirits service, finished with a cut glass effect pattern around the exterior. The design draws on a classic speakeasy aesthetic, giving the glass a retro, tactile quality that sits well in bar environments where presentation matters as much as the drink itself.
The thick-walled construction gives the glass a substantial feel in the hand, which tends to read well with customers as a mark of quality. For busy bar service, that solidity also offers a degree of practical resilience compared with thinner-walled alternatives, though as with all glassware, appropriate handling and storage procedures remain important to manage breakage rates over time.
This glass works well for long cocktails, highballs, and mixed spirit serves. The shape and capacity make it a natural fit for gin and tonic, whisky and mixer, or similar builds where ice and garnish are part of the serve. It is sold in a box of six, which suits operators buying to top up existing stock or to kit out a smaller bar station.
There are no particular installation considerations for glassware, but it is worth checking compatibility with your existing glasswasher rack sizes before ordering in volume. The glass dimensions should also be considered if you are working with tight shelf or speed rail storage.
If you are unsure whether this glass suits your intended serve style or you are building out a broader glassware range, we are happy to help you think it through before you order.
£108.00(£129.60 inc VAT)
The Chef & Sommelier Open Up hi ball is a 350ml glass tumbler intended for professional bar and restaurant use. The curved profile gives it a clean, considered silhouette that sits comfortably in the hand and presents well across a broad range of serves — long cocktails, soft drinks, juices, iced beverages, and house water service all work naturally in this format.
Commercial glassware takes consistent punishment across service shifts, and these tumblers are produced to a standard that holds up well through repeated commercial dishwasher cycles without the rapid clouding or chipping that affects lower-grade glass. Buying in a pack of 24 gives operators a uniform working set — consistent sizing makes storage straightforward, speeds up mise en place, and keeps presentation tidy across a full bar run.
- Uniform 350ml capacity suits standard long-drink and soft drink serves
- Glass construction delivers a quality feel that acrylic alternatives do not
- Consistent sizing across the pack simplifies storage and front-of-house organisation
- Shaped profile supports comfortable handling during fast-paced service
- Commercial dishwasher compatible for efficient turnaround between covers
A single pack of 24 is a practical quantity for a smaller venue, a secondary bar station, or a function setup. Busier sites with a high-turnover bar operation should factor in their breakage rate and peak cover numbers when deciding how much stock to hold — running short on a busy Friday service is a straightforward problem to avoid with a little forward planning.
If you are weighing up how many packs suit your operation, or whether this size fits your drinks menu, the team is glad to help you think it through.
£48.08(£57.70 inc VAT)
These 280ml hi ball glasses from Utopia are a straightforward, practical choice for bar and front-of-house service. The classic straight-sided hi ball profile suits a wide range of serves — soft drinks, juices, long cocktails, and mixers — making them a reliable all-round option rather than a specialist piece of glassware.
Utopia produce glassware at commercial scale, and this range reflects that: consistent sizing, a balanced weight that feels solid in the hand without being heavy, and a profile that stacks and handles well during a busy service. At 280ml, the capacity sits comfortably in the smaller hi ball category, useful where a moderate serve is preferred over a larger format glass.
From an operational standpoint, the practical benefits are straightforward:
- Dishwasher safe, reducing turnaround time during service
- Supplied in a pack of 48, giving a practical opening stock for most venues
- Consistent sizing supports clean presentation across a full service
- Classic profile works across a broad range of drinks menus
Being glassware, normal handling care applies — these are commercial-grade pieces rather than toughened or nucleated glass, so appropriate storage and handling procedures will extend their working life. Venues with very high-volume bar service or outdoor use may want to consider polycarbonate alternatives instead.
This pack suits cafés, pubs, restaurants, and small hotel bars looking to maintain a consistent glassware stock without overcomplicating procurement. For higher-volume operations or venues needing a larger format, alternative sizes and pack configurations are available across the range.
If you're unsure which glass size or quantity best fits your service requirements, the team is happy to help you work it through.
£37.24(£44.69 inc VAT)
The Onis Divergence hi-ball is a geometric faceted glass designed for beverage and cocktail service in bars, restaurants, and hospitality venues. The angular, prism-like sides refract light across the surface of the drink, giving a distinctive visual effect without relying on coloured or treated glass. The chimney-style profile draws aromas upward, which makes it a practical choice for spirit-forward or aromatic cocktails where the nose is part of the experience.
In a busy bar environment, glassware needs to look the part while standing up to regular use and high-throughput washing cycles. The Divergence range is dishwasher safe, which keeps it practical for service without requiring hand-wash-only handling. The 410ml capacity suits standard long drinks, highballs, and most cocktail builds without feeling oversized.
Key practical points for bar and front-of-house use:
- Faceted sides create light refraction that enhances drink presentation
- Chimney profile concentrates aroma — well suited to aromatic or layered cocktails
- 410ml capacity accommodates standard highball and long drink builds
- Dishwasher safe for efficient turnaround during busy service
- Supplied in packs of 6, suitable for topping up existing stock or setting consistent covers
This glass is best suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, and restaurant bar programmes where presentation matters and glassware makes a considered statement. It is a specialist shape rather than a general-purpose hi-ball, so it suits venues with a defined cocktail offering rather than high-volume draft drink service where a simpler profile may be more appropriate.
If you are building a glassware range or matching pieces across a drinks menu, the team is happy to help you think through quantities and suitability — feel free to get in touch before placing an order.
£44.60(£53.52 inc VAT)
The Utopia Pure hi ball glass is a straightforward, no-frills tumbler designed for everyday use in commercial settings. At 280ml it sits at the smaller end of the hi ball range, making it a practical choice where portion control or a lighter serve is preferred — soft drinks, mixers, and shorter cocktail builds all work well in this format.
In busy service environments, glassware takes consistent knocks from bar counters, glass washers, and rapid turnaround. The Pure range is built with that reality in mind — the glass has reasonable weight and wall thickness for its class, helping it hold up through regular commercial wash cycles without excessive attrition. It won't outlast a heavy-duty toughened glass, but for the price point it performs reliably in moderate to busy operations.
- Practical size for soft drinks, mixers, and short serves
- Supplied in a pack of 48 — sufficient to stock a small to medium bar operation
- Classic, clean profile suits most venue styles without looking dated
- Dishwasher safe for use with commercial glass washers
- Consistent sizing makes stacking and storage straightforward
The pack quantity of 48 is worth considering against your par level. For a smaller café or bar with a single glass washer cycle between services, 48 pieces will generally cover service comfortably. Higher-volume or larger operations running continuous service may find a larger opening order worthwhile to maintain adequate stock through breakages.
If you're unsure how many covers this pack will realistically support for your service style, or whether a different size within the Pure range would suit your menu better, we're happy to talk it through.
£45.19(£54.23 inc VAT)
The Utopia Casablanca Hi Ball is a fully toughened 420ml glass in a clean, straight-sided profile that works equally well for soft drinks, cocktails, and long mixed drinks. The classic shape has remained in commercial use precisely because it suits a wide range of service styles without looking out of place in any of them.
Toughened glass construction means these handle the daily stresses of commercial service better than standard glassware — repeated glasswasher cycles, busy bar tops, and the inevitable occasional knock. The toughening process also means that if a glass does break, it tends to do so more safely than untreated glass, which is a practical consideration in any food service environment.
- Fully toughened for commercial durability and safer breakage
- Glasswasher safe for efficient turnaround during busy service
- Classic hi ball profile suits a wide range of drinks service
- Sold in a pack of 24, practical for stocking a full bar set
- Consistent sizing supports portion control for measured serves
These are straightforward, reliable workhorses suited to pubs, hotels, restaurants, and casual dining operations. A pack of 24 is a sensible starting quantity for a working bar, though higher-volume venues may want to consider holding additional stock to maintain cover through a full service without waiting on glasswasher cycles.
If you're specifying glassware across a new venue or refreshing an existing range, it's worth having a conversation about quantities and mix before ordering — the team is happy to help work that through.
£143.00(£171.60 inc VAT)
The Luigi Bormioli Bach hi-ball is a 355ml lead-free crystal glass with a faceted profile, designed to present long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktails clearly and attractively in a commercial setting. It is sold in cases of 24, making it a practical quantity for stocking a bar or replacing breakages across a busy site.
These glasses are made from Luigi Bormioli's SON.hyx material — a blown, lead-free crystal that is titanium reinforced during production. The reinforcement process targets the rim and base, which are typically the first points of failure in a high-turnover bar environment. The result is a glass that holds up better than standard soda-lime alternatives under the daily stresses of service, stacking, and machine washing.
For operations running a commercial glasswasher, the SON.hyx construction is rated to withstand up to 4,000 machine cycles without loss of clarity or structural integrity. That figure matters in practice — many crystal-style glasses cloud or weaken well before that threshold, increasing replacement frequency and cost over time.
- Lead-free crystal construction with titanium reinforcement at high-wear points
- Suitable for commercial glasswashers — rated to 4,000 cycles
- Faceted design maintains clarity and presentation across high-volume service
- Sold in 24s, making stock management straightforward for bar operators
These glasses are well suited to bars, hotel food and beverage operations, and casual dining venues looking for a step up from basic glassware without moving into premium fragile crystal. They are not the heaviest-duty option available; operations with very high breakage rates or rough handling conditions may want to consider a thicker-walled tumbler format instead.
If you are unsure whether this glass suits your service style or volume, the team is happy to talk it through.
£52.14(£62.57 inc VAT)
These hi ball glasses from Utopia are a straightforward, reliable option for bars, restaurants, and hospitality venues that need a clean, classic tumbler format. Holding 280ml, they are well suited to a wide range of drinks service — from soft drinks and juices through to long cocktails and mixed spirits. The CE mark confirms that each glass meets legal measure requirements, which is a practical consideration for any licensed premises serving measured drinks.
Hi ball glasses at this capacity sit comfortably in most service contexts. They are not oversized enough to feel wasteful for simpler soft drink service, but carry enough volume to present longer mixed drinks properly. Supplied in a pack of 48, the quantity is appropriate for a venue building up its glass stock or replacing breakages across a section.
- CE marked for legal measure compliance on licensed premises
- Versatile format suitable for soft drinks, juices, and long mixed drinks
- Pack of 48 provides a practical stock quantity for most venues
- Simple, classic profile that sits well across a range of service styles
At 260g each, these are reasonably weighted glasses without being unnecessarily heavy for high-turnover service. As with all glassware in a busy environment, appropriate handling, storage, and glass-washing practices will affect longevity — racking and dedicated glasswasher use is advisable over general dishwasher cycles where possible.
These glasses are well suited to pub, bar, and casual dining environments where a dependable, unfussy hi ball is needed in quantity. If you are unsure whether this capacity is right for your drinks menu or service style, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
£12.15(£14.58 inc VAT)
These Olympia hi ball tumblers are a straightforward, practical choice for bars, restaurants, and hospitality operations that need reliable glassware across a high volume of covers. The rounded profile and gently curved bowl give them a clean, versatile appearance that works equally well for long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktails.
In a busy service environment, glassware takes a good deal of punishment. The rolled rim on these tumblers adds meaningful chip resistance at the point where breakages most commonly occur, which helps extend usable life and keeps replacement costs down over time. The soda lime construction is standard for commercial glassware of this type — robust enough for regular daily use and fully dishwasher safe, which supports fast turnaround during peak service periods.
- Rolled rim reduces chipping at the most vulnerable point
- Dishwasher safe for quick turnaround between service periods
- Curved bowl suits a wide range of long drinks and cocktails
- Consistent 490ml capacity supports standard measures and presentation
- Sold in a pack of six, practical for restocking or supplementing existing stock
These are an appropriate choice for pubs, casual dining restaurants, cafés, and hotel bars running a mid-volume operation. They are not specialist cocktail or premium glassware, and operations with a very high breakage rate or a particularly demanding service volume may want to consider a heavier-duty option. The pack-of-six format suits restocking rather than a full opening order for a large venue.
If you are unsure how many packs to order for your cover count, or whether this style is the right fit for your bar setup, the team is happy to help you work it out.
£54.73(£65.68 inc VAT)
These are a straightforward, reliable hi ball tumbler from Utopia — a well-regarded name in commercial glassware. At 280ml, they sit at a practical capacity for soft drinks, mixers, and long cocktails, and are supplied in packs of 48, which suits most bar setups for initial stock or rotation top-ups.
The glasses are fully toughened throughout the body, not just at the rim. Toughening increases overall resistance to the knocks and handling that come with busy bar service — being set down firmly on hard surfaces, passing through glasswashers repeatedly, or being stacked in racks. When toughened glass does break, it fractures into small blunt fragments rather than sharp shards, which is an important safety consideration in licensed premises. Many licensing authorities and operators specify toughened glassware precisely for this reason.
From an operational standpoint, the practical advantages are straightforward:
- Improved resistance to impact damage across the full body of the glass
- Safer breakage pattern — small fragments rather than dangerous shards
- Suitable for commercial glasswasher use and rack storage
- Consistent shape makes for easy stacking and stock management
- Pack quantity of 48 supports realistic bar par levels
At 270g, these are a solid, substantial glass — not lightweight, which tends to read better in front-of-house settings and holds up better in day-to-day service. There are no special installation or storage requirements beyond standard glassware handling.
These glasses are well suited to pubs, bars, restaurants, and any licensed venue that needs a dependable, licence-compliant hi ball tumbler in volume. If you're stocking a larger operation or need a different capacity, it's worth speaking to us about the right quantity and size combination for your covers and service style.
£91.38(£109.66 inc VAT)
The RCR Cristalleria Funky hi-ball tumbler is a 352ml glass designed for serving long drinks, cocktails, and soft beverages in commercial bar and dining environments. Produced in Italy by RCR Cristalleria, these tumblers are made from eco-crystal glass, which offers the clarity and light refraction associated with traditional crystal without the lead content — a practical consideration for operators who want an attractive presentation without additional handling restrictions.
In a busy bar or casual dining setting, glassware takes considerable punishment. The Funky range is built with a robustness that holds up reasonably well through regular commercial wash cycles, though as with all crystal-style glass, some care with commercial glasswashers at higher temperatures is worthwhile to preserve clarity over time. The shaped profile gives bartenders a confident grip during service, and the clean, transparent finish lets the drink itself do the visual work — useful where presentation matters.
- Eco-crystal construction provides strong clarity without lead content
- Shaped tumbler profile suits cocktails, long drinks, and soft serves
- Sold in packs of 12, practical for restocking or building par stock
- Suitable for front-of-house use in bars, restaurants, and casual dining
- Compatible with standard commercial glasswashing equipment
These tumblers are well suited to venues that want a step up from standard soda-lime glassware in terms of appearance, without moving into fragile fine-crystal territory. They work well in cocktail bars, all-day dining operations, and pub restaurants where presentation is part of the offer. For very high-turnover venues with significant breakage rates, it may be worth considering whether a heavier-duty or tempered alternative would be more economical in the long run.
If you are unsure whether this glass suits your service style or volume, we are happy to talk it through.
£19.76(£23.71 inc VAT)
The Onis Envy hi-ball glass is a 410ml beverage glass designed for front-of-house use in bars, restaurants, hotels, and casual dining operations. The glass features a fine-ground rim, a weighted base for stability, and a gently tapered profile that sits comfortably in the hand. It is supplied in packs of six and is covered by the Onis Rim Guarantee, which provides some reassurance of consistent quality across a matched set.
In a working bar or dining environment, the fine rim makes a noticeable difference to how drinks are received — particularly for water service, soft drinks, and long cocktails where presentation matters. The thick base helps the glass withstand the day-to-day handling that comes with busy service, including tray service and rapid table turnover.
- Fine-ground rim for a clean, comfortable drinking experience
- Weighted base provides stability during tray service and busy covers
- Consistent profile across the pack suits matched front-of-house presentation
- Dishwasher safe, suitable for commercial glasswasher cycles
- Onis Rim Guarantee included with each pack
These glasses are dishwasher safe and should perform reliably through regular commercial glasswasher cycles, though as with all fine-rim glassware, correct rack loading and appropriate glasswasher chemistry will help maintain the rim finish over time.
The 410ml capacity suits most standard hi-ball and long-drink serves. For operations running high cover volumes or where glass breakage rates are a significant concern, it is worth considering whether a heavier-gauge alternative would be more appropriate. Equally, for lower-volume or more style-led settings, this glass is a practical and presentable choice.
If you are looking to match these across a larger opening order or want to discuss glassware quantities for a new venue, the team is happy to help you work through the requirements.
£36.74(£44.09 inc VAT)
The Schott Zwiesel Banquet range is a line of crystal glassware designed for professional hospitality use. These hi ball glasses offer a clean, contemporary profile that sits comfortably across bar service, fine dining, room service, and casual restaurant settings without looking out of place in any of them.
Crystal construction gives the glass a clarity and brightness that standard glass cannot match, and the weight distribution feels balanced in the hand — something front-of-house teams and guests both notice. The proportions work well for long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktails, making them a practical all-rounder rather than a specialist piece.
For operators, the practical advantages are straightforward:
- Crystal construction delivers better light transmission and a premium look on the table
- A consistent profile makes stacking and storage manageable during busy turnovers
- The neutral, contemporary design works across multiple service styles without theming the glassware too heavily
- Sold in packs of six, which suits both initial orders and topping up breakage stocks
As with all crystal glassware in a commercial environment, handling and warewashing practice matters. Crystal is less forgiving than toughened glass under heavy mechanical stress, so sites with high breakage rates or fast-paced bar environments should factor that into their buying decision. These glasses are better suited to table service and hotel use than to high-volume late-night bar operations where robustness is the primary concern.
The Banquet range is well suited to hotels, fine dining restaurants, brasseries, and room service operations where presentation carries weight. For sites needing a more resilient everyday option, there are alternatives in the broader glassware range worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this range fits your service style or volume, we are happy to talk it through.
£40.71(£48.85 inc VAT)
The Arcoroc Islande is a straight-sided hi ball glass with a clean, unfussy profile that works equally well for long mixed drinks, soft drinks, and water service. At 310ml it sits in a practical mid-range capacity that suits most standard bar pours without excess bulk on the table.
Made from toughened glass, the Islande is noticeably more resistant to the knocks and thermal stresses of daily commercial service than standard annealed glassware. That matters in environments where glasses cycle repeatedly through glasswashers and are handled quickly during busy covers. The toughening process also means that when breakage does occur, it tends to be safer than untreated glass — a relevant consideration for any operator managing food safety.
For day-to-day use, the Islande offers a few straightforward advantages:
- Toughened construction handles regular glasswasher cycles without rapid deterioration
- Straight sides make stacking and storage efficient in tight back-bar spaces
- Consistent shape simplifies portion control for measured serves
- Supplied in a pack of 24, which suits opening orders and topping-up stock alike
- Neutral profile suits branded glassware programmes where the focus is on the drink
As with any commercial glassware, the practical lifespan depends heavily on handling standards, glasswasher chemistry, and storage conditions. Toughening extends service life but does not eliminate breakage, and operators running high-volume covers may find they need to cycle stock more frequently than lower-turnover venues.
The Islande is a sensible choice for bars, restaurants, hotels, and event caterers looking for reliable everyday hi ball glassware without unnecessary complexity. If you are fitting out a larger site or need guidance on quantities and mix of glass sizes, the team is happy to talk it through.
£19.76(£23.71 inc VAT)
The Onis Envy hi-ball glass is a 290ml glass suited to bars, restaurants, and cafés serving water, soft drinks, juices, and cocktails. Part of Onis's Envy collection, it features a fine rim profile and a thick base with a gently curved silhouette — a shape that works well across a range of drink presentations without leaning too casual or too formal.
In a busy service environment, glassware takes considerable punishment. The Onis Rim Guarantee is worth noting here — Onis stands behind the rim durability of this glass, which is the point most vulnerable to chipping during washing and stacking. The thick base provides stability on trays and at the table, and the dishwasher-safe construction means it holds up to regular commercial wash cycles without compromising clarity or finish.
- Fine rim profile suits both casual and more considered drink presentations
- Thick base adds stability during service and on trays
- Dishwasher safe — practical for high-turnover service
- Backed by the Onis Rim Guarantee for added confidence
- Sold in packs of six, keeping stock replenishment straightforward
At 290ml, this is a relatively compact hi-ball. It suits venues where portion control matters or where the drink menu calls for a shorter serve — worth considering if your menu leans toward longer, ice-heavy builds, where a larger format glass may be more practical. For higher-volume operations or those needing a larger hi-ball capacity, alternatives in the range may be worth exploring.
If you're building out a glassware range or matching across a drinks menu and would find it useful to talk through sizing or quantities, we're happy to help.
£27.90(£33.48 inc VAT)
The Onis Endessa hi ball is a straightforward, well-proportioned glass suited to busy bar and restaurant environments. At 410ml it sits comfortably in the standard hi ball range — practical for long drinks, house cocktails, and soft drink service alike. The Endessa range is designed to work alongside other pieces in the Onis portfolio, so operators building or refreshing a glassware set can achieve a consistent look across the table.
In a working bar environment, glassware takes a great deal of punishment — repeated dishwasher cycles, handling at pace, and occasional knocks on hard surfaces. Onis backs the Endessa with a rim guarantee, which reflects a degree of confidence in the product's durability under normal commercial use. The glass is confirmed dishwasher safe, which matters in any site running a commercial glasswasher through a busy service.
- Dishwasher safe for efficient turnaround during service
- Rim guarantee provides reassurance for commercial use
- Coordinates with the wider Onis Endessa range for a consistent table presentation
- 410ml capacity suits long drinks, cocktails, and soft beverage service
- Supplied in a pack of 12, suited to bar restocking requirements
These glasses are a sensible choice for restaurants, bars, cafés, and casual dining operations that want reliable, presentable glassware without overcomplicating the selection. For higher-volume sites or venues with particularly demanding service patterns, it's worth considering whether a heavier-duty specification would better suit the pace of the operation.
If you're building out a full glassware range or unsure which pack sizes suit your covers, we're happy to talk it through.
£21.45(£25.74 inc VAT)
The Royal Leerdam Rayo is a 360ml hi-ball glass designed for bar and restaurant use. It features a distinctive rippled exterior profile and a laser-cut rim, and is sold in packs of six.
In everyday service, the Rayo performs reliably as a general-purpose hi-ball for long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktails. The laser-cut rim produces a clean, even edge that holds up well through repeated dishwasher cycles without the roughness that can develop on cheaper pressed glassware. The rippled profile gives the glass a confident grip in the hand, which is a practical consideration during busy tray service.
- Laser-cut rim for a smooth, consistent drinking edge
- Rippled exterior profile aids handling during tray service
- Stacking rim allows space-efficient storage behind the bar
- Dishwasher safe for straightforward glass wash turnaround
- Lightweight construction suits high-volume tray carrying
The stacking rim is worth noting for venues where back-bar storage is tight. Glasses that stack cleanly reduce breakage risk during storage and speed up restocking between service periods. Being dishwasher safe, the Rayo fits into standard commercial glass wash cycles without special handling.
These glasses are well suited to bars, casual dining restaurants, and hotels serving long drinks or cocktails at volume. They work equally well for soft drink and water service. For venues requiring a larger format hi-ball or a specific branded look, there are other sizes and profiles in the Royal Leerdam range worth considering.
If you are specifying glassware for a new opening or looking to standardise across a site, we are happy to talk through quantities and format options.
