Frequently Asked Questions

What types of serving baskets are available?
We stock a range of serving baskets for different food presentations. Choose from polywicker and woven wood bread baskets, black wire baskets, plastic fast food baskets and larger wicker display baskets. We also stock taco holders for presenting tacos and other casual dining dishes. These accessories are ideal for restaurants, cafes, pubs, hotels and buffet service.
What are the best bread baskets for restaurants?
The best bread baskets for restaurants depend on your venue’s style and service requirements. Polywicker baskets offer a traditional woven appearance, while wooden baskets create a natural, rustic look. Black wire bread baskets suit modern restaurants and industrial-style interiors. Choose a basket that’s the right size for your portions and suitable for your intended food service.
What is a polywicker bread basket?
A polywicker bread basket is made from synthetic woven material designed to resemble traditional wicker. It’s a practical choice for presenting bread, rolls and other table accompaniments. Polywicker baskets are popular in restaurants, cafes and hotels because they offer a traditional appearance with convenient everyday care. Always follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions.
What are fast food baskets used for?
Fast food baskets are commonly used to serve burgers, chips, hot dogs, chicken wings and other casual dining dishes. They’re particularly popular in American-style diners, pubs, burger restaurants and street-food venues. Our range includes classic red and black baskets from Genware and TableCraft. Pair them with suitable food-safe liners for an attractive presentation.
Do serving baskets need food liners?
Food liners can be a useful addition to serving baskets, particularly when presenting burgers, chips and other foods. Suitable greaseproof paper and tray liners help collect crumbs and grease while improving presentation. They can also make clearing tables easier between services. Explore our Presentation Papers range for suitable food presentation papers.
