Utopia Raffles Coupe Glasses 160ml (Pack of 6)

Delivery Information
Price Match
The Utopia Raffles coupe is a fine cut crystal glass designed for cocktail and champagne service in settings where presentation matters. The coupe format — a shallow, broad bowl on a stem — is a classic choice for Champagne saucers, Daiquiris, Sidecars and similar short cocktails, and has remained a fixture on well-run bar programmes for good reason.
In service, the cut crystal finish adds visual weight and catches the light in a way that plain glassware does not. The 160ml capacity is well suited to measured cocktail pours and single-serve Champagne portions, keeping presentation consistent across covers without overfilling.
For front-of-house teams, the Raffles range offers a few practical advantages worth noting:
- Cut crystal pattern aids grip and reduces slip risk during busy service
- Uniform sizing supports consistent garnish presentation across the pass
- Classic coupe profile stacks and stores efficiently in standard glass racks
- Available in a six-pack format, making top-up orders straightforward
It is worth being realistic about handling requirements. Fine cut crystal rewards careful washing — commercial glasswashers are suitable, but high-alkalinity chemicals and abrasive racking should be avoided to protect the finish over time. Breakage rates will naturally be higher in very high-volume or casual bar environments than in more considered service settings.
The Raffles coupe is best suited to cocktail bars, hotel bars, fine dining restaurants, and private dining operations where glassware presentation forms part of the overall guest experience. For operators needing a larger coupe capacity, or a simpler uncut stem for faster-paced service, alternatives within the broader range may be worth considering.
If you are building or refreshing a glassware programme and would like a recommendation on quantities or styles, the team is happy to help.
Frequently asked questions
Are these suitable for use in a busy cocktail bar?
The Raffles coupe is well suited to cocktail bars where presentation is a priority, though it is worth factoring in breakage rates for very high-volume or late-night environments. Fine cut crystal is more fragile than heavy-gauge bar glassware, so operators running fast-paced service may want to hold more backup stock than they would with a plainer, heavier stem.
Can these glasses go through a commercial glasswasher?
Yes, they are suitable for commercial glasswashers. To protect the cut crystal finish over time, avoid high-alkalinity detergents and ensure glasses are racked securely to prevent contact damage during the wash cycle. Hand polishing before service is advisable in formal dining settings.
Is a 160ml coupe the right size for Champagne service?
A 160ml coupe is a practical size for a single Champagne or sparkling wine portion, particularly in reception or set-menu service where a measured pour is standard. If you are serving larger free-pour Champagne portions or prefer a more generous bowl, a larger coupe capacity may be worth considering.
