Commercial Kitchen Equipment & Layout for a New Restaurant

So, you’ve put in all the hard work and finally, your new restaurant is ready to go! All that’s left to do is to get your kitchen equipment and layout sorted. It’s probably not something you put a whole lot of thought into initially as there are million other things to think about during the process, but getting this stuff organised is essential.

Firstly, decide whether or not you are going to rent or buy your kitchen equipment. You may not have even known about renting catering and kitchenequipment, but this is a popular choice for new restaurant owners who may not have the money upfront to purchase equipment outright. Catering Equipment Warehouse understands this, which is why you will find a selection of both renting and purchasing options on our website. You can choose to rent long term or just for a few months until the restaurant has found its feet- the choice is yours!

Not all of us are blessed with a huge commercial kitchen space, in fact, even some of the best restaurants in the world have cramped kitchens, so planning the layout of your equipment is important. Consider which items should be placed next to each other for practicality, think about the direction the fridge, freezer and oven doors will open so that they don’t block off other areas and minimise tripping hazards where possible.

Keep your dining layout flexible so you can change things around when needed for functions and events and keep décor personal but also relatable too. Make your diners feel comfortable relaxed and ensure they can move around freely.
