The Tefcold SC85 is a compact undercounter wine cooler finished in black, designed to hold and display white and rosé wines at consistent serving temperatures. It fits beneath a standard bar counter and holds up to 22 standard 75cl bottles, making it a practical choice for venues where back-bar space is limited.
Fan-assisted cooling circulates air evenly through the cabinet, which matters in a bar setting where the door is opened repeatedly throughout service. Passive cooling struggles to recover quickly under those conditions; the SC85 maintains a stable temperature across all shelf levels even during busy periods. The tinted glass door reduces light exposure — worth considering for any wine held in the unit over several days rather than turned over quickly. An external digital display lets staff check the set temperature without opening the door, which supports both consistency and energy efficiency during service.
- Fan-assisted circulation maintains even temperature across all shelf levels
- Tinted glass door reduces light exposure for wine held over longer periods
- External digital display for temperature monitoring without opening the door
- Lockable door supports stock security in unsupervised bar areas
- LED interior lighting keeps the display visible without adding heat to the cabinet
The unit runs from a standard 13A mains socket, so no dedicated electrical supply is needed. It does require adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation, and should not be positioned directly alongside heat-generating equipment such as a glasswasher or undercounter oven — doing so will increase compressor load and may compromise temperature stability.
The SC85 is well suited to small bars, café counters, hotel rooms, and front-of-house wine display in a restaurant setting. It is not intended as a replacement for cellar storage or high-volume wine holding. Venues with a larger wine list, higher covers, or a requirement for dual-zone temperature control would be better served by a larger or more specialised unit.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your layout or service requirements, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£1,159.00(£1,390.80 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost WFG 185 is a freestanding upright wine cooler with two independently controlled temperature zones, designed to hold and display a substantial bottle collection in a bar, restaurant, or hospitality setting. The split-zone configuration allows red and white wines to be stored simultaneously at their correct serving temperatures, removing the need for two separate units and the floor space that would require.
In a busy service environment, wine temperature consistency matters throughout the day, not just at opening. This cabinet is built to maintain stable conditions without frequent manual adjustment, which reduces the operational burden during service. The low-vibration compressor is a practical consideration for wines held over longer periods, as excessive vibration can disturb sediment and affect quality over time. A built-in heating element also makes the unit suitable for cooler ambient locations — back-of-house areas, cellar rooms, or spaces that drop in temperature significantly overnight or through winter months.
From an operational standpoint, the cabinet offers several features worth considering:
- Dual independent zones for simultaneous red and white wine storage
- UV-filtered smoked glass door to limit light degradation over time
- Adjustable wooden shelves to accommodate different bottle formats and sizes
- Door-frame LED lighting for clean, front-of-house presentation
- Hydrocarbon refrigerant with a lower environmental impact than older refrigerant types
Installation is straightforward. This is a plug-in unit requiring a standard mains connection and adequate ventilation clearance — it is not intended for flush built-in installation unless appropriate ventilation is provided. The black gloss surround and glass door make it presentable enough for front-of-house use, though operators should consider ambient light levels and foot traffic in the chosen position, as the glass door is more vulnerable to knocks than a solid-panel unit.
This cabinet suits independent restaurants, hotel bars, wine bars, and similar venues where a dual-zone display unit is preferable to running two separate appliances. It is a sensible mid-capacity choice; operations with significantly higher throughput or a need for multiple separated zones may find a larger or multi-section cabinet better matched to their requirements.
If you are weighing up whether this unit fits your space, ambient conditions, or service volume, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
£667.00(£800.40 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost W45 is a compact undercounter wine cooler designed to store up to 45 standard 750ml bottles across two independently controlled temperature zones within a single cabinet. It is built for back-bar or undercounter installation in venues where space is limited but wine needs to be held at the correct serving temperature and presented properly.
In a working bar or restaurant, dual-zone storage solves a practical problem without compromise: whites and rosés can be held chilled in one zone while reds rest at a warmer holding temperature in the other, simultaneously and without adjustment. The low-vibration compressor is a genuine consideration for any venue holding bottles over extended periods, as vibration over time can disturb sediment and affect wine quality. The smoked-glass door and wooden-trimmed shelves make the unit presentable enough for front-of-house positions without requiring a separate display unit.
- Two independent zones allow simultaneous red and white wine storage
- Low-vibration compressor protects wine quality during extended holding
- Smoked-glass door and wooden shelf trims suit front-of-house placement
- Built-in heating element maintains stable performance in cooler ambient conditions
- Hydrocarbon refrigerant with a lower environmental impact than older refrigerant types
The W45 runs from a standard single-phase supply and requires no specialist electrical installation. If you are fitting it into a built-in void or below a counter, pay close attention to the ventilation clearance requirements — restricted airflow around the cabinet will reduce performance and shorten the unit's working life. It is not a lightweight piece of kit, so plan access routes and final positioning ahead of delivery.
This cooler is well suited to bars, hotel bars, restaurant dining rooms, and smaller hospitality venues where a curated wine selection needs to be held at correct temperatures and presented cleanly. It is not designed for high-turnover bottle storage or cellaring at volume — venues with significantly greater throughput or storage requirements would be better served by a higher-capacity unit.
If you are unsure whether the W45 fits your layout, service pattern, or ambient conditions, our team is happy to work through the detail with you before you order.
£704.00(£844.80 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost WFG 45 is a compact, freestanding wine storage cabinet designed for professional use in bars, restaurants, and hotel operations. It provides two independent temperature zones within a single unit, allowing red and white wines to be held simultaneously at their respective serving temperatures — a straightforward practical requirement for any venue offering both by the glass.
In a working bar or restaurant, wine temperature at the point of service has a direct impact on quality and customer experience. The WFG 45 is built for continuous service use rather than occasional domestic storage. The smoked-glass door lets staff identify and locate bottles at a glance without opening the cabinet unnecessarily, which helps maintain stable internal temperatures across both zones during busy service periods. Wooden shelving accommodates standard Bordeaux-style bottles comfortably and can be adjusted to suit different configurations.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are:
- Two independent zones allow red and white wines to be served from a single cabinet
- Smoked-glass door supports temperature stability by reducing unnecessary openings
- Adjustable wooden shelving suits a range of bottle sizes and service layouts
- Compact footprint fits comfortably into constrained bar or service areas
- Low running costs make it practical for continuous, year-round operation
Installation is uncomplicated — this is a freestanding unit running on a standard single-phase supply, with no specialist installation work required. As with any refrigeration equipment, adequate ventilation clearance around the unit should be confirmed before positioning. It is worth checking the intended location allows for this, particularly in tighter bar environments. This is not a unit intended for long-term cellar ageing of large stocks; it is best understood as a service-oriented cabinet designed to hold working quantities at the correct temperature ahead of service.
The WFG 45 is well suited to smaller restaurants, wine bars, hotel bars, and similar venues where wine is served by the glass and temperature consistency matters. It is a sensible choice where counter or back-bar space is limited and a larger multi-zone cabinet would be impractical. For operations with a more extensive wine list or higher throughput, a larger-capacity unit may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this cabinet is the right fit for your service volume or available space, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£1,020.00(£1,224.00 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost FZ365W-BLACK is a freestanding dual-zone wine cooler intended for commercial front-of-house use. The cabinet is divided into two independently controlled temperature zones, allowing operators to hold red and white wines — or still and sparkling — at their respective optimal serving temperatures simultaneously within a single unit. With capacity for up to 197 bottles, it occupies the space between a compact single-zone cooler and a larger dedicated wine cabinet.
In a working bar or restaurant, wine temperature consistency throughout a busy service is a practical requirement, not a nicety. The low-vibration compressor addresses this directly: sustained vibration disturbs sediment in aged wines and degrades quality over time. The unit also incorporates a heating function, which allows it to maintain set temperatures in cooler ambient environments — useful in a back-of-house area, a cellar-adjacent position, or any space that drops significantly overnight. This makes it more reliable year-round than coolers without this capability.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages for hospitality settings:
- Two independent zones allow simultaneous red and white wine storage in one cabinet
- Low-vibration compressor protects wine quality during extended storage periods
- Heating function maintains set temperatures in cool or variable ambient conditions
- Smoked-glass door and LED interior lighting support customer-facing display use
- Wooden shelves reduce vibration transfer and hold bottles securely in position
The black gloss finish and smoked-glass door make it appropriate for placement behind a bar counter, within a dining room display area, or in a wine retail setting. It is a freestanding unit and is not rated for integrated or fully recessed cabinetry installation. Adequate clearance around the cabinet is required for ventilation, and this should be factored into positioning before the unit is placed permanently.
This cooler is well suited to small to medium-sized bars, restaurant wine programmes, boutique hotels, and wine retail spaces where a dual-temperature display solution is needed but a walk-in or large-format installation is not warranted. Operations with significantly higher bottle volumes, or those requiring more than two temperature zones, may find a larger-capacity unit or a bank of coolers better suited to their needs.
If you'd like to talk through whether this unit fits your bottle range, available space, or service setup, our team is glad to help you think it through before you commit.
£1,310.00(£1,572.00 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series double door beer and wine fridge is a dual-zone refrigerated display unit designed to store and present both wine and general bar stock at individually controlled temperatures. The left-hand side is configured specifically for wine, with dedicated bottle shelving capable of holding up to 60 Bordeaux-style bottles. The right-hand side uses flat shelving suited to cans, bottles, and cartons. Both zones are managed independently through a digital controller, allowing each side to be held at a different temperature simultaneously — a practical arrangement when your wine service and draught alternatives have different storage requirements.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, the ability to maintain two distinct temperature zones within a single cabinet reduces the number of separate units required and simplifies front- and back-of-house organisation. The unit is built to run continuously through service periods, and the R600a refrigerant used is a low-GWP option that contributes to lower running costs alongside the LED internal lighting, which generates less heat than traditional alternatives and keeps the cabinet's cooling load more manageable.
From a practical standpoint, the steel construction is straightforward to wipe down and resistant to the everyday wear of a working bar. Key operational advantages include:
- Independent dual-zone controls allow wine and bar stock to be held at different temperatures
- LED lighting keeps contents visible and presentable without adding significant heat load
- Flat and wine-specific shelving configurations within one cabinet
- Continuous-run design suited to long service periods
- Steel construction that cleans quickly and withstands daily use
At 890mm wide and 1627mm tall, this is a full-height unit and will require a clear, ventilated position — it is not intended for built-in installation. At 113kg, floor reinforcement is unlikely to be a concern in most commercial settings, but access routes and door clearance should be confirmed before delivery. The unit is climate-classed T, meaning it is designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 43°C, which makes it suitable for warmer bar environments that can struggle with standard-class refrigeration.
This unit is well suited to licensed premises, hotel bars, and restaurant operations where wine is a meaningful part of the offering and a dual-zone approach is preferable to separate dedicated wine and bar fridges. For very high-volume venues with rapid stock turnover, it is worth considering whether a larger-capacity or multi-unit setup would better match demand.
If you are unsure whether this cabinet fits your layout or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you order.
£644.00(£772.80 inc VAT)
The Tefcold FS1380WB is a freestanding wine merchandiser intended for commercial front-of-house use. It accommodates up to 78 standard Bordeaux-style bottles across a series of wooden-effect shelves, arranged in double layers to make practical use of the cabinet depth. The single glass door and vertical LED strip lighting allow both customers and service staff to view the full range without opening the unit, which helps the cabinet hold a stable temperature throughout service.
In a working bar or restaurant, a unit like this earns its place by making wine selection visible and accessible at the point of service rather than requiring staff to move between front and back of house. The illuminated display keeps bottles visible from a reasonable distance, and the black cabinet exterior sits comfortably within most modern bar and dining-room aesthetics. It is worth being straightforward, however, about what this unit is designed for: it is a display and active-service merchandiser, not a long-term cellaring cabinet. Wine intended for extended ageing is better housed in a dedicated storage unit with tighter control over humidity and vibration.
Day-to-day operational advantages include:
- LED lighting keeps bottles visible throughout service without generating significant heat inside the cabinet
- Double-layer shelf arrangement maximises bottle count within a modest floor footprint
- Glass door allows customers and staff to browse without opening the cabinet, reducing temperature fluctuation
- Freestanding design requires no built-in void or joinery preparation
- Black finish integrates cleanly into front-of-house and bar environments
Installation requires only a standard single-phase mains connection, with no specialist ventilation ducting or drainage needed. The unit should be positioned on a level surface with adequate clearance at the rear and sides to allow free air circulation — restricting airflow will reduce cooling efficiency over time. One practical point worth noting: magnums, champagne bottles, and other non-standard formats will reduce usable capacity below the 78-bottle headline figure, so it is sensible to work through your actual bottle mix before committing to this size.
This unit is well suited to smaller bars, restaurant dining rooms, hotel food and beverage operations, and independent wine retailers where a compact, presentable front-of-house display is the priority. Operators stocking a broader range or managing higher-volume service may find that a multi-door or larger-capacity unit gives more practical flexibility day to day. Where chilled storage rather than active display is the main requirement, a solid-door bottle cooler is likely the more appropriate choice.
If you are weighing up whether this unit fits your floor plan, bottle mix, or service pattern, we are glad to talk it through with you before you go ahead.
£916.00(£1,099.20 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series single zone wine fridge is a tall, free-standing unit designed to store and display up to 137 bottles at consistent serving temperatures. The temperature range runs from 5°C through to 20°C, which means it can accommodate both white and sparkling wines at the cooler end of the scale, and red wines held at a warmer serving temperature — all from a single cabinet. It is finished in stainless steel and built to the commercial-grade construction standards that characterise the G-Series range.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, having a reliable, high-capacity wine storage unit on the floor or back-bar means staff can serve quickly without repeated trips to a cellar or remote storage. The G-Series is rated for ambient conditions up to 43°C, which makes it practical in the kind of warm, enclosed spaces that bar and hospitality environments often present during peak service. The unit operates at 35dB, which keeps background noise at an acceptable level in customer-facing areas.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Single-zone temperature control covering the full white-to-red serving range in one cabinet
- Lock facility to secure stock at the end of service
- Stainless steel construction suited to busy, high-contact environments
- Climate Class T rating — reliable performance in warm ambient conditions up to 43°C
- Straightforward internal layout designed for easy restocking and cleaning
Installation is relatively straightforward — the unit requires a standard mains electrical connection and sufficient floor space and ventilation clearance around the cabinet. At 89kg it is a substantial piece of kit, so positioning should be finalised before delivery if possible. It is worth considering whether the floor surface and location can support the weight and allow access for routine cleaning at the rear.
This unit is well suited to bars, pubs, hotel lounges, and restaurant front-of-house areas where a wide selection of wines needs to be held at ready-to-serve temperatures and presented accessibly to staff. For smaller venues with more modest bottle counts, a lower-capacity unit may represent better value. Conversely, for high-volume sites or operations running an extensive wine list, a larger or dual-zone solution might warrant consideration.
If you are unsure whether a single-zone unit covers your wine list requirements, or you want to discuss placement and ventilation before committing, we are happy to talk it through.
£161.00(£193.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series 28-bottle wine fridge is a compact, tabletop unit designed to store and display Bordeaux-style wine bottles at consistent serving temperatures. It sits on a countertop or back-bar surface and is intended for front-of-house environments where presentation matters and straightforward temperature control is needed. It is not a cellar or long-term storage unit — it is a service-ready wine cooler suited to venues that want chilled wine within reach during service.
The unit holds bottles across six internal shelves with LED lighting throughout, which helps staff locate stock quickly without opening the door unnecessarily. A digital control panel allows the temperature to be set and monitored with reasonable accuracy across its operating range, which is practical for venues serving both whites and sparkling wines that require consistent chilling. Recovery after door opening is adequate for moderate service volumes, though this is a C-Series product — it is designed for environments where the door is not opened constantly throughout service.
In operational terms, this fridge suits venues where wine display and access are needed but where throughput is measured rather than high. Typical settings include:
- Small bars, wine bars, and restaurant front-of-house counters
- Private dining or events spaces with a curated wine offering
- Hospitality settings where space is limited and a full upright unit is not practical
- Back-bar display where visual merchandising supports sales
Installation is straightforward — the unit is freestanding, requires a standard 13A socket, and needs adequate clearance around the casing for ventilation. It is rated for ambient conditions up to 32°C, so it will perform reliably in most bar and front-of-house environments. It is not suited to hot kitchen pass areas or enclosed spaces with poor air circulation. At 22.5kg it can be repositioned without difficulty, which is useful in venues that reconfigure their service areas.
This unit is well suited to lower-volume wine service where reliable temperature holding and tidy presentation are the priority. It is not designed for high-footfall venues requiring rapid restocking throughout the day — for those sites, a larger-capacity or more heavy-duty unit would be a better fit.
If you are unsure whether this capacity suits your service volume, or if you need guidance on placement and ventilation, the team is happy to talk it through before you order.
£559.00(£670.80 inc VAT)
The Tefcold SC381W is a single door upright wine cooler designed for commercial environments where presentation and consistent temperature maintenance both matter. It holds up to 78 standard 75cl bottles across six wooden shelves, making it a practical choice for bars, restaurants, hotel lobbies, and wine retail settings where a self-contained display unit is needed at front-of-house or back-bar level.
Fan-assisted cooling keeps conditions stable throughout the cabinet, which is important for wine storage where temperature fluctuations over a service period can affect quality. The digital temperature display allows staff to check conditions at a glance without opening the door, which helps maintain a consistent internal environment during busy service periods. LED lighting illuminates the interior vertically, making bottle selection straightforward without adding significant heat load to the cabinet.
From an operational standpoint, this unit offers a number of practical advantages for service environments:
- Adjustable wooden shelves accommodate different bottle formats and sizes
- Integrated lock protects stock in open or semi-public environments
- Fan-assisted circulation supports temperature evenness across all shelf levels
- Black interior and exterior finish suits front-of-house and bar installations
- Digital display allows at-a-glance temperature monitoring without opening the door
Installation is straightforward — the unit is freestanding and requires only a standard mains power connection. Allow adequate clearance around the cabinet for ventilation, particularly at the rear and sides, to ensure the refrigeration system operates efficiently. It is worth considering the ambient temperature of the installation space; in particularly warm kitchens or poorly ventilated back-of-house areas, performance may be affected, and a unit with a higher ambient rating may be more appropriate.
The SC381W is well suited to operations storing and displaying wine by the bottle — wine bars, restaurant front-of-house areas, hotel bars, or deli and retail settings. For sites with significantly higher volume requirements or where multiple bottle formats need to be stored in larger quantities, a higher-capacity multi-door unit may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this capacity suits your service volume, or have questions about placement and ventilation in your particular space, we are happy to talk it through before you commit.
£262.00(£314.40 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series wine fridge is a single-zone chilled display unit designed to store and present bottled wine in bar and hospitality environments. It holds up to 51 bottles across seven shelves and is intended for sites where the unit will be opened infrequently rather than accessed continuously throughout service.
In practice, this model performs well in lower-traffic settings — a small hotel bar, a restaurant with a modest wine offering, or a café serving occasional chilled bottles. The temperature range suits white, rosé, and sparkling wines. Because it operates within a climate class N rating, it is designed for ambient conditions between 16°C and 32°C, which covers most standard bar and front-of-house areas. It is not rated for warmer kitchen environments or areas with poor ventilation.
From an operational standpoint, the unit offers several practical advantages:
- LED interior lighting improves bottle visibility without generating excess heat
- Digital control panel allows straightforward temperature adjustment without specialist knowledge
- Painted steel construction is easy to wipe down and maintain
- Compact footprint suits tabletop or undercounter back bar placement
- R600a refrigerant offers reasonable running efficiency for the capacity
Installation is straightforward — the unit requires a standard 230V socket and no specialist plumbing or drainage. Allow adequate clearance around the rear and sides for ventilation. At 34kg it can be moved and positioned without lifting equipment, though two people are advisable. This is a tabletop or freestanding unit; it is not designed for built-in installation.
This fridge is best suited to smaller hospitality venues with a limited wine list and moderate service volume. For busier bars or operations requiring frequent access and faster recovery, a higher-capacity or commercial-grade unit would be a more appropriate choice.
If you are unsure whether this model suits your service volume or environment, our team is happy to talk it through with you.
£857.00(£1,028.40 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series dual zone wine fridge is a freestanding, upright wine cooler designed for bars, restaurants, and hospitality venues that need to store and serve both red and white wines at the correct temperature. With capacity for up to 109 bottles across two independently controlled compartments, it offers a practical solution for venues where wine forms a meaningful part of the drinks offering.
In a busy bar environment, having wines stored at the right serving temperature matters — not just for quality, but for service speed. The dual zone configuration allows white, rosé, or sparkling wines to be kept chilled in the upper compartment while reds are held at a warmer serving temperature in the lower section. The lower compartment can operate at the warmer end of the temperature range, making it genuinely functional for red wine service rather than simply acting as a second chilled zone. With a noise level of 36dB, the unit is quiet enough for front-of-house placement without becoming a distraction.
From an operational standpoint, the key advantages are:
- Independent temperature zones for white and red wine service without needing two separate units
- A lockable door to secure stock overnight or during quieter trading periods
- Stainless steel exterior that is straightforward to wipe down and presentable front-of-house
- A relatively modest 150W power draw for a unit of this capacity, supporting manageable running costs
- Climate Class ST rating, meaning it is designed to operate in ambient temperatures between 16°C and 38°C — suitable for most UK bar environments
Installation is straightforward for a freestanding unit of this type. It requires a standard mains connection and adequate ventilation around the cabinet — clearance at the rear and sides should be maintained to allow the refrigeration system to dissipate heat effectively. At 102kg, it is a substantial piece of kit and will need two people to position safely. The unit uses R600a refrigerant, which is low global warming potential and in keeping with current environmental expectations. The energy rating is F, which is worth factoring into running cost calculations for venues with tight utility budgets.
This unit is well suited to wine bars, gastropubs, hotel bars, and restaurants where wine sales are consistent and a presentable, front-of-house storage solution is needed. At 109-bottle capacity, it is pitched at mid-volume sites. Venues with a very high wine turnover or larger cellaring requirements may find a higher-capacity solution better fits their operation, and equally, smaller venues with more modest wine lists may not need this level of capacity.
If you are unsure whether this model is the right fit for your bar layout or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
£561.00(£673.20 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost W32 is a compact undercounter wine cooler with two independently controlled temperature zones housed within a single cabinet. It holds up to 32 standard 750ml bottles, allowing operators to store red and white wines — or white and sparkling — at their correct serving temperatures at the same time, without running two separate units.
In a working bar or restaurant, that dual-zone configuration has genuine practical value. Service staff can reach both wine styles at the correct temperature throughout a shift without any last-minute temperature adjustments or juggling between units. The low-vibration compressor helps protect wine condition during the days or weeks a bottle may sit in the unit before it is served — a detail that matters more than it might initially appear on a well-managed wine list. The smoked-glass door and wooden-trimmed shelves give the unit a presentable finish, making it a reasonable choice for front-of-house placement where bottle display is part of the experience.
- Two independent zones for correct service temperatures across wine styles
- Low-vibration compressor to protect wine quality during extended storage
- Smoked-glass door and wooden-trimmed shelves for front-of-house presentation
- Built-in heating element for stable performance in cooler ambient conditions
- Hydrocarbon refrigerant for improved environmental performance
Installation requires a standard 13A mains socket and adequate clearance at the rear and sides for ventilation. The unit is best positioned before stocking, as moving it once loaded is less straightforward. No specialist installation is needed, but ventilation clearances should be respected to ensure consistent performance over time.
The W32 is well suited to smaller restaurants, wine bars, and hotel bars running a curated list that spans more than one wine style. Operators with higher throughput or a broader bottle range may find a larger-capacity unit more appropriate. If you are working out whether this fits your counter space and service setup, we are happy to talk it through.
£946.00(£1,135.20 inc VAT)
The Vestfrost FZ295W is a freestanding upright wine cooler built for commercial bar and restaurant use where both correct serving temperature and front-of-house presentation matter. It operates across two independently controlled temperature zones within a single cabinet, allowing red and white wines to be stored and served from the same unit without either zone compromising the other.
In a working bar environment, consistency of condition is what counts over time. The low-vibration compressor protects wine during extended storage, which is particularly relevant for venues holding stock across multiple days or weeks rather than turning bottles over rapidly each service. The UV-filtered smoked-glass door limits light exposure without obscuring the display from customers, and the built-in heating element provides a practical safeguard for units placed in cooler ambient conditions — cellar-level bars, back-of-house corridors, or any location where the surrounding temperature might otherwise interfere with stable cabinet operation.
The main operational advantages for bar and front-of-house use include:
- Two independently controlled zones for simultaneous red and white wine service
- Wooden shelves that protect labels and help staff locate bottles quickly during service
- LED interior lighting that keeps heat generation inside the cabinet low
- Charcoal filter to maintain air quality and protect wine condition during storage
- Compact upright footprint suited to tighter bar layouts and counter-end positions
Installation is straightforward. The unit requires a standard single-phase mains supply and adequate clearance for ventilation at the rear and top. It is designed for freestanding placement rather than built-in fitting, so this should be factored into any bar fitout or counter design. The black gloss finish presents well in contemporary venues but will show fingerprints in high-traffic service areas and will need regular wiping down to maintain its appearance.
This cooler is well suited to independent restaurants, hotel bars, wine bars, and smaller hospitality venues where a curated wine list is part of the offer and the display contributes to the customer experience. For higher-volume operations or those requiring greater bottle capacity, larger options are available within the range.
If you would like to talk through whether the capacity and zone configuration suits your service style, we are happy to help before you commit.
£1,018.00(£1,221.60 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series single zone wine fridge is a freestanding storage and display unit designed for bars, restaurants and hospitality venues that need to keep a substantial wine selection at consistent serving temperature. With capacity for up to 192 bottles, it holds enough stock to cover a full service without constant restocking, and the temperature range of 5°C to 20°C means it can accommodate both chilled whites and room-temperature reds within a single cabinet depending on how it is set.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, temperature consistency is more important than headline capacity. The G-Series maintains stable conditions across the cabinet and is rated for ambient environments up to 43°C, which makes it a practical choice for back-of-bar and front-of-house positions where kitchen heat or summer conditions would stress a domestic-grade unit. The locking facility is a useful operational detail — it allows stock to be secured at the end of service without moving bottles to a separate store.
From a day-to-day operations standpoint, the unit offers a number of practical advantages:
- Wide temperature range accommodates both red and white wine service from a single unit
- Stainless steel exterior is straightforward to clean and holds up well in commercial environments
- Lockable door supports end-of-service stock security without additional storage
- Climate class T rating means reliable performance in warmer ambient conditions
- Low noise output at 38dB suits front-of-house placement without disruption
Installation is relatively straightforward — the unit requires a standard 13A mains connection and no specialist services. At 106kg it will need two people to position safely, and the footprint should be checked against your available floor space before ordering. It is freestanding rather than integrated, so it can be repositioned if your layout changes. Ventilation clearance around the unit should be maintained to ensure efficient running.
This unit is well suited to wine bars, pub dining rooms, hotel bars and mid-sized restaurants where a visible wine display is part of the customer experience. It is a single zone cabinet, so operators needing strict simultaneous temperature separation between reds and whites at different temperatures may want to consider a dual zone alternative. For very high volume sites managing hundreds of covers, a larger or multi-unit configuration might be worth discussing.
If you are unsure whether this unit suits your layout or your expected service volumes, we are happy to talk it through before you place an order.

The Polar G-Series is a freestanding dual zone wine fridge designed to hold up to 172 bottles across 15 shelves within a single stainless steel cabinet. The two independently controlled temperature zones allow operators to store red and white wines — or any combination of styles — at their correct serving temperatures simultaneously, removing the need for separate units and the floor space that comes with them.
In a busy bar or restaurant environment, having wines ready to serve at the right temperature throughout service is straightforward with this unit. The lower compartment supports gentle warming as well as cooling, which is particularly useful for reds that need to be held at a consistent serving temperature rather than left at ambient. The temperature range of 5°C to 20°C covers the full spectrum of wine styles, from sparkling and whites through to fuller-bodied reds. With a noise level of 36dB, it is quiet enough for front-of-house placement without causing distraction.
Practical operational advantages include:
- Dual independent zones for simultaneous red and white wine storage
- Lower zone heating function keeps reds at correct serving temperature
- Lock function for securing contents outside of service hours
- Stainless steel exterior suits most front-of-house and back-bar environments
- R600a refrigerant with low global warming potential
The unit stands 1,850mm tall and weighs 112kg, so floor loading and access routes should be confirmed before delivery. It operates within an ambient temperature range of 16°C to 38°C, which makes it suitable for most bar and restaurant environments, though it should not be placed in unheated storage areas or exposed to extremes. This is a freestanding unit requiring a standard electrical connection — no specialist installation is needed, but adequate ventilation around the cabinet is important for reliable long-term performance.
This wine fridge is well suited to bars, restaurants, hotels, and members clubs where a varied wine list needs to be served at different temperatures from a single unit. For venues with very high bottle turnover or a need for significantly greater capacity, a larger or higher-specification unit may be worth considering. Equally, smaller operations with a more limited wine offering may find a single-zone unit sufficient.

£554.00(£664.80 inc VAT)
The Polar G-Series is a freestanding, undercounter wine fridge designed for commercial bar and hospitality environments. It holds up to 51 bottles across five internal shelves and maintains a consistent chill throughout the temperature range required for both white and red wine service. The stainless steel exterior suits front- or back-of-house placement and is practical to keep clean during and after service.
In a busy bar setting, door openings are frequent and unpredictable. The fan-assisted cooling system helps maintain a stable internal temperature even during periods of high access, which matters when you have covers on and bottles being pulled regularly. The noise output is modest at 37dB, making it a reasonable choice where the unit will be positioned close to customers or staff working in confined spaces.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Fan-assisted cooling for consistent temperature across all five shelves
- LED interior lighting that keeps running costs low and aids stock visibility
- Lockable door to support stock security at the end of service
- Stainless steel finish that wipes down quickly between services
- Rated for ambient temperatures up to 38°C, covering most UK bar environments in summer
The unit is designed for standard undercounter installation at 820mm tall, so it fits beneath a typical bar counter without modification. It runs on a standard single-phase supply and uses R600a refrigerant with a low global warming potential. The climate class rating of ST means it is suited to environments between 16°C and 38°C ambient — worth confirming if the unit will be placed in a kitchen pass or a poorly ventilated cellar area where temperatures may sit outside that range. Weight is 50kg, so two-person installation is advisable.
This unit works well for pubs, hotel bars, restaurants, and clubs that need reliable chilled wine storage close to the point of service without giving up significant floor or counter space. It is best suited to lower- to mid-volume operations. For sites with higher throughput or a need for greater bottle capacity, a larger-format wine fridge would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this model fits your layout or service volume, we are happy to talk it through before you commit to an order.
£131.00(£157.20 inc VAT)
The Polar C-Series 16-bottle wine fridge is a compact, table top unit designed to keep a modest selection of wines chilled and readily accessible at the point of service. It holds up to 16 standard Bordeaux-style bottles within a 48-litre interior, making it a practical choice for operators who need chilled wine close to hand without dedicating significant floor space to refrigeration.
In commercial use, this unit is best understood as a service-point display and holding fridge rather than a high-throughput cellar solution. It is designed for environments where access is relatively infrequent and ambient conditions stay within a comfortable range — it carries a Class N climate rating, meaning it is suited to ambient temperatures between 16°C and 32°C. It will perform reliably in a typical bar or restaurant floor setting, though it is not intended for hot kitchen environments or continuous heavy-access use. The 40dB noise level is low enough to sit unobtrusively on a back bar or service counter.
Practically, the unit offers:
- Digital temperature control across the 5°C to 18°C range, covering both white and red service temperatures
- Internal LED lighting for stock visibility during service without adding unnecessary heat
- A painted steel exterior in black, suitable for front-of-house placement
- A straightforward control panel that does not require staff training to operate
Installation is straightforward — the unit requires only a standard 13A plug socket and enough clearance for ventilation around the casing. At 17kg it is easily repositioned. No water connection or specialist installation is needed.
This fridge suits smaller venues, private dining rooms, hotel suites, or bar counters where a curated wine offering of 16 bottles or fewer covers typical service demand. For sites serving higher volumes, or where the unit will be accessed very frequently throughout a shift, a larger or higher-specification wine cabinet is likely to be a better investment.
If you are unsure whether this capacity fits your service style, or whether a different configuration would suit your space better, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you commit.
£504.00(£604.80 inc VAT)
The Nisbets Essentials 80-bottle dual zone wine cooler is a freestanding refrigerated cabinet designed to store red, white and sparkling wines simultaneously at their correct serving temperatures. Two independently controlled temperature zones allow operators to set different conditions within the same unit — useful where a wine list spans varieties that require meaningfully different storage temperatures. Fan-assisted cooling distributes air evenly throughout the cabinet, helping to avoid warm spots that can affect wine quality over time.
In a bar or restaurant setting, a unit like this earns its place by reducing the time staff spend moving bottles between storage and service. Wines are held ready at serving temperature, which matters most during busy service periods when every second at the bar counts. The double-glazed glass door gives good visibility of stock without opening the cabinet, which supports both faster service and more consistent internal temperatures.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical advantages are:
- Two independent temperature zones for red and white or sparkling storage
- Fan-assisted cooling for even temperature distribution throughout
- Digital soft-touch controls for straightforward temperature management
- Automatic defrost reducing routine maintenance demands
- Ten metal shelves providing organised, accessible bottle storage
Installation is relatively straightforward — the compact footprint and adjustable feet make positioning flexible, and the unit is suited to front-of-house placements where presentation matters as well as performance. It is worth confirming the available space allows adequate clearance for ventilation around the cabinet.
This cooler is well suited to smaller bars, hotel lounges, restaurant front-of-house areas and private dining spaces with a moderate wine offering. For higher-volume operations or sites requiring greater bottle capacity, a larger or more heavy-duty unit would be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this capacity suits your service volume or how best to position it within your space, our team is happy to talk it through.

Wine Fridges & Wine Coolers Buying Guide
Choosing a wine cooler
Capacity is the first decision. Polar C-Series starts small, with a 16 bottle and a 28 bottle tabletop model, plus a 51 bottle fridge. The Polar G-Series stainless steel range runs from a 51 bottle undercounter model up to single zone 137 and 192 bottle fridges, and dual zone 109 and 172 bottle fridges.
Single zone fridges hold one temperature. Dual zone models, such as the Vestfrost W32, W45, WFG 45 and WFG 185, let you hold two, which suits stocking red and white together. Vestfrost also offers the FZ295W and FZ365W-BLACK dual zone coolers.
Undercounter and display options
For behind the bar, look at the Tefcold SC85 and the Vestfrost W32 and W45 undercounter coolers. To show bottles to customers, the Tefcold FS1380WB is a single glass door wine merchandiser holding 78 bottles. The Polar G-Series double door fridge handles both beer and wine.
