Product Description
The Lincat GS65 is an electric countertop griddle fitted with a machined steel cooking plate. It is designed for continuous use in commercial kitchens where consistent, controllable surface heat is needed across the full plate area. The steel plate construction gives a robust, responsive cooking surface capable of handling a wide range of menu items — from breakfast items and burgers through to fish, vegetables, and flatbreads.
In a busy service environment, even heat distribution across the plate is what separates a reliable griddle from an inconsistent one. The machined steel plate on the GS65 is designed to spread heat evenly, reducing the risk of cold spots that slow service and produce inconsistent results. The fully welded plate edges are worth noting for practical reasons — there are no joins or seams where grease and food debris can collect, which simplifies end-of-service cleaning and reduces the time spent on hygiene maintenance.
Key operational advantages of this griddle include:
- Even surface heat across the full cooking area for consistent results
- Fully welded plate construction eliminates grease traps and speeds cleaning
- Electric operation — no gas supply or flue connection required
- Straightforward temperature control suited to multi-item cooking
- Countertop footprint fits into most commercial kitchen line-ups
Being electric, the GS65 does not require a gas supply or associated ventilation infrastructure beyond standard kitchen extraction. It will need an appropriate electrical supply, so it is worth confirming your kitchen's available supply with your electrician prior to installation. The unit is designed to sit on a solid, heat-resistant countertop surface and should be positioned within reach of adequate extraction.
The GS65 is well suited to cafés, pub kitchens, school canteens, and smaller restaurant operations running moderate throughput. It is a practical choice where a steel plate finish is preferred over chrome. For higher-volume operations requiring a larger cooking area or more intensive daily use, it is worth considering heavier-duty models in the range.
If you are unsure whether this griddle matches your service volume or kitchen setup, the team at Advantage is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the GS65 is commonly used in cafés and pub kitchens for breakfast and brunch service. The steel plate handles eggs, bacon, sausages, and similar items well, and the even heat distribution helps when cooking multiple items simultaneously. For very high-volume operations running continuous service, it is worth discussing your throughput requirements with us to confirm it is the right capacity.
- The GS65 is electrically powered and will require a suitable hardwired connection — a standard 13A socket is unlikely to be sufficient for a commercial griddle of this type. We recommend confirming the supply requirements with a qualified electrician before installation, and checking that your kitchen's existing supply has sufficient capacity.
- Steel plate griddles like the GS65 are robust, retain heat well, and are well suited to high-contact cooking such as burgers, bacon, and vegetables. Chrome plate surfaces offer a slightly smoother finish that some operators prefer for delicate items like fish or eggs, and chrome is generally easier to clean to a high visual standard. If you are unsure which surface best suits your menu, we are happy to advise.
