Bread & Serving Baskets for Hotels and Restaurants
Warm bread loses its charm the moment it arrives on a cold plate. A good serving basket keeps it warm, makes it look generous, and gives the table its first touch of texture before the meal begins. Makrey supplies bread and serving baskets to luxury hotels, premium restaurants and banquet venues, and has worked with F&B teams since 1981.
Types of Serving Baskets for Restaurants
Wooden Bread Baskets
Wood brings warmth to the table before the food even arrives. Our wooden baskets come in square, tapered, bowl and rectangular baskets, in solid, slotted and strip designs, for bread service, breakfast buffets and sharing starters.
Cane Baskets
For an Indian or rustic table, nothing feels more natural than cane. Our cane baskets include traditional forms like the tasla and chaaj, for rotis, papad and fried snacks.
SS Baskets
Some tables need polish more than warmth. Each SS basket in our stainless steel range comes in round, oval or jali-cut designs, and our round baskets work well for bread service in fine dining and contemporary restaurants.
Wrought Iron Wire Baskets
Fries and bar snacks need air around them to stay crisp on the table. Our wrought iron wire baskets, in black and copper powder-coated finishes, include kishti baskets and chip-and-dip baskets with built-in dip bowls.
Copper and Brass Baskets
For Indian fine dining and heritage properties, our copper and brass baskets give bread service a richer, more festive look.
Dimsum Baskets
Asian menus need baskets that go from steamer to table. Our dimsum baskets come in sizes from 4" to 12".
Presentation Baskets for Buffets
On a buffet, baskets add variety in height and material. Use large baskets for bread and pastry counters, small baskets for individual portions, and rectangular baskets as presentation baskets for condiments and cutlery. Pair them with risers and charlies to layer the counter, and explore our full hotel and banquet buffetware range.
