Churchill Tide Coupe Plates 217mm (Pack of 12)
£114.00(£136.80 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Churchill Tide coupe plate is a mid-sized round plate from Churchill's Tide collection, available in blue, green or white. The blue and green finishes have a coastal, fluid, wave-inspired surface pattern, while the white plate has a subtly textured surface. The coupe profile, a shallow shape with no defined rim, gives chefs a clean plating area while helping to contain sauces and dressings during service.
Made from super-vitrified ceramic, these plates are built to cope with the repeated thermal cycling and mechanical stress of a busy commercial environment. Super-vitrification improves density and surface hardness compared to standard ceramic, which translates to better resistance to chipping, staining, and crazing over time. They are rated for commercial dishwasher use, so turnaround between covers is straightforward.
- Coupe shape supports tidy plating and clean presentation
- Super-vitrified ceramic resists chipping and surface staining
- Safe for use in commercial dishwashers
- Consistent glaze finish complements a range of plating styles
- Supplied in a pack of 12, suitable for establishing or topping up covers
The 217mm diameter sits comfortably as a starter or side plate in most cover settings, though some operations use it as a main plate for lighter dishes or smaller portions. It is worth considering your typical portion sizes and plate stacking requirements before committing to a quantity. The pack size suits smaller establishments or those building out a stock gradually.
If you are putting together a full table setting or need guidance on quantities relative to your cover count and turnaround speed, the team is happy to talk it through with you.
Frequently asked questions
Is the 217mm size suitable as a main plate or is it better as a starter?
At 217mm, this plate sits between a typical side plate and a full main plate. Many operators use it for starters, sharing dishes, or lighter mains where portion sizes are modest. If your main courses are generous or you plate with accompaniments on the same dish, a larger plate from the Tide range may serve you better.
How well do these plates hold up in a high-volume commercial dishwasher environment?
Super-vitrified ceramic is denser and harder-wearing than standard earthenware or porcelain, which makes it a practical choice for operations running multiple wash cycles per service. The glaze is designed to resist crazing and staining under these conditions, though as with all crockery, careful racking and avoiding overloading the dishwasher will extend the lifespan of each piece.
How many packs are typically needed to set up a new restaurant or café?
A general rule in commercial settings is to hold two to three times your seated cover count in plates to allow for simultaneous service, washing, and breakage buffer. If you are unsure how many packs makes sense for your operation, it is worth speaking with us — we can help you work through the quantities based on your cover number and typical turnaround speed.
