Delivery Information

Price Match

The Utopia Caledonian is a machine-made glass hiball tumbler built around a distinctive pentagon base. At 470ml capacity, it sits comfortably in the standard long-drink range and is well suited to bars, restaurants, and casual dining operations where a robust, no-nonsense glass is preferable to anything too delicate for busy service.

The heavyweight base gives the glass a confident feel in the hand and contributes to its stability on trays and bar tops — a practical advantage in high-footfall environments where glasses are handled quickly and repeatedly. The wider diameter also makes it forgiving to fill and easy to clean thoroughly, whether by hand or in a commercial glasswasher.

  • Pentagon base adds stability and a distinctive table presence
  • Machine-made construction offers consistent sizing across the pack
  • Dishwasher safe, reducing handling time between services
  • Suitable for soft drinks, cocktails, and long mixed drinks
  • Pack of 24 provides a practical starting quantity for most venues

Being machine-made glass rather than hand-blown, the Caledonian delivers good consistency in weight and dimensions across a full pack — useful when glasses are restocked frequently from a shared reserve. Each glass weighs 495g, which gives it a solid feel without being unwieldy for service staff carrying multiple covers.

If your operation runs very high volumes or you need a larger opening stock, it is worth considering whether a larger pack size or a more chip-resistant alternative would better suit your throughput. For lighter-use venues or where breakage rates are low, this range represents a practical, cost-effective choice.

If you are unsure whether the Caledonian is the right fit for your glassware programme, our team is happy to talk through what works best for your style of service.

Frequently asked questions

Are these glasses suitable for use in a commercial glasswasher?

Yes, the Caledonian range is dishwasher safe and is designed to withstand regular commercial glasswasher cycles. As with all glassware, using the correct glasswasher detergent and rinse aid at the right concentration will help maintain clarity and extend the working life of the glass.

Is a pack of 24 enough for a busy bar or restaurant service?

For a small venue or as a supplementary stock alongside an existing range, 24 is a workable starting quantity. Busier operations with high table turnover or large bar areas will typically want to hold two to three times the number of covers in glass stock to allow for glasswasher cycle time and inevitable breakage. It is straightforward to order multiple packs if a larger opening stock is needed.

How does the pentagon base affect practical use on the bar?

The pentagon base gives the glass a broader footprint than a standard round base, which improves stability on flat surfaces and reduces the likelihood of tipping during service. It also contributes to the overall weight of the glass, which most operators find improves the perceived quality in a customer's hand.
