Delivery Information

Price Match

The Libbey Teardrop is a stemmed wine glass with a classic elongated bowl profile, supplied in packs of twelve. At 250ml capacity with a recommended serving of 175ml, it sits in the standard single-measure bracket used across most UK licensed premises — making it straightforward to portion-control and price by the glass.

In a busy service environment, glassware takes a lot of punishment. The Teardrop range is built with Libbey's Safedge treatment on both the rim and the foot — the two areas most prone to chipping in a commercial wash cycle or during stacking. This doesn't make the glass indestructible, but it does meaningfully reduce the rate of attrition compared with untreated alternatives, which matters when you're running high covers or operating a bar with fast turnaround.

Practically, the Teardrop works well across a range of settings:

  • Wine bars and gastropubs where consistent glassware presentation matters
  • Restaurants serving wine by the glass at a standard 175ml pour
  • Banqueting and event catering where durability and replacement cost are a consideration
  • Casual dining operations looking for a reliable everyday wine glass

The glass is dishwasher safe and compatible with standard commercial glasswashers. As with all stemware, correct rack loading and appropriate glasswasher detergent dosing will extend service life considerably.

The 250ml capacity suits most standard single-glass wine service. Operations serving larger 250ml pours or needing a larger bowl for premium wine lists may want to consider a higher-capacity option from the range. For high-volume banqueting with very rapid cycling, it's worth assessing your breakage budget against pack size and unit cost.

If you're unsure whether this glass is the right fit for your cover count or service style, we're happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Is the 250ml size suitable for standard UK wine by the glass service?

Yes — the 250ml capacity aligns with the standard UK single and large-glass measures, with the recommended 175ml serve leaving appropriate headroom in the bowl. It's a practical choice for most licensed premises operating at standard pour sizes.

How well does the Teardrop glass hold up in a commercial glasswasher?

The Safedge rim and foot treatment is specifically designed to reduce chipping through repeated commercial wash cycles. As with all stemware, correct rack positioning and properly dosed detergent will extend service life — overloading racks or using incorrect chemistry is the most common cause of premature breakage regardless of glass quality.

Is a pack of 12 sufficient for a busy restaurant or bar?

For most operations, a pack of 12 is a starting quantity rather than a full par stock. The right quantity depends on your cover count, table turn speed, and glasswasher cycle time. Higher-volume sites typically hold three to four times their peak cover count in glassware to allow for washing, breakage, and buffer stock.
