Price Match

The Utopia Gatsby Old Fashioned Glass is a polycarbonate tumbler designed to replicate the look of cut glass. At 290ml it sits comfortably in the short-serve format used for spirits, spirit mixers, and straightforward short cocktails. The decorative moulded pattern gives the appearance of traditional glassware without the fragility that comes with it.

In practice, polycarbonate performs well in environments where glass breakage is a genuine operational concern — outdoor terraces, festival bars, poolside service, and high-volume late-night venues. The material is stain resistant and holds up to repeated commercial glasswasher cycles without the cracking or crazing that cheaper plastics can develop over time. For operators running busy back-to-back service, that durability matters.

  • Break and chip resistant — reduces wastage in high-turnover settings
  • Stain resistant polycarbonate maintains a clean, presentable appearance
  • Glasswasher safe for quick turnaround between service periods
  • Cut-glass effect suits venues where presentation standards need to be maintained
  • Supplied in a pack of 12, practical for building or topping up stock

These glasses are well suited to licensed premises where glass is prohibited or actively discouraged — beach bars, rooftop venues, events catering, and anywhere with a high risk of accidental breakage. They are also a practical choice for operators who need a presentable short glass at volume without the ongoing replacement cost of real glassware.

If you are unsure whether polycarbonate suits your venue's specific service style or branding requirements, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently asked questions

Are these glasses suitable for venues with a no-glass policy?

Yes — polycarbonate is the standard choice for venues where glass is restricted or prohibited, including outdoor licensed areas, festival bars, poolside service, and late-night venues. These glasses meet that requirement whilst maintaining a reasonable presentation standard.

How well do polycarbonate glasses hold up to repeated commercial glasswashing?

Polycarbonate is generally more durable than standard plastic in glasswasher environments, though longevity depends on water temperature, detergent concentration, and cycle frequency. Following the glasswasher manufacturer's guidelines for plastics will help extend the service life of the glasses.

Is a pack of 12 sufficient for a busy bar operation?

For most operations, 12 glasses forms a starting unit rather than a complete par level — the right quantity depends on your covers, service style, and glasswasher cycle time. Operators running high-volume service typically hold multiple packs to maintain enough stock through peak periods.
