Price Match

The Utopia Side hi ball glass is a straightforward, well-proportioned tumbler suited to a wide range of long drinks, soft drinks, and cocktail service. At 290ml, it sits comfortably in the standard hi ball category — enough volume for a single spirit with a mixer, or a soft drink with ice, without being oversized.

The glass features a heavy, solid base which noticeably improves stability on bar tops, trays, and during clearing. In a busy service environment, that extra base weight reduces the likelihood of tipping during passing and stacking, which is a practical consideration wherever glasses are handled at speed and volume.

For operations buying glassware at scale, the pack of 48 suits a typical medium-sized bar or restaurant that needs a reliable house hi ball option without committing to a bespoke or branded glass. The contemporary profile works across casual dining, pub environments, hotel bars, and contract catering alike.

  • Solid base adds stability during busy service and clearing
  • Pack of 48 supports practical stock rotation and breakage cover
  • Suitable for dishwasher cycling in commercial glasswashers
  • Clean, contemporary profile suits a wide range of venues
  • Standard 290ml volume covers most long drink and soft drink applications

If your operation runs high breakage rates or requires a heavier-duty or fully toughened option, it is worth considering whether a reinforced or nucleated glass would be more cost-effective over time.

If you are ordering glassware for a new opening or a full restock and want to sense-check quantities or glass styles against your menu, the team is happy to help you work through it.

Frequently asked questions

How many packs would a typical bar need to open with?

A useful rule of thumb for bar glassware is to hold two to three times your seated cover count for any given glass style, factoring in glasswasher cycle time and breakage. For a 60-cover operation, a single pack of 48 is likely a starting point rather than a full opening stock. It is worth reviewing your glasswasher throughput and turnaround time when calculating quantities.

Are these glasses suitable for commercial glasswashers?

Glass material is generally compatible with commercial glasswasher cycling, though as with all glassware, thermal shock from incorrect rack loading or washing temperatures that are too high can accelerate wear and increase breakage over time. Following your glasswasher manufacturer's recommended glass cycle settings will help extend the working life of the stock.

Is this glass suitable for both alcoholic and soft drink service?

Yes — at 290ml, the Side hi ball is a practical all-rounder for spirits with mixers, soft drinks over ice, and non-alcoholic long drinks. Its proportions and volume make it a sensible house glass where operators want a single hi ball style to cover multiple menu applications.
