TrueCraftware's 5 compartment stainless steel condiment bar garnish tray for organized citrus, olives and cherries.
Cocktailor 6 Tray Bar Top Food & Garnish Station with Lid
Cocktailor's 6 tray bar top food and garnish station with lid for organized garnish service.
A garnish tray keeps citrus wheels, olives, cherries, and picks sorted in one place so building drinks stays fast and clean. Instead of juggling open jars, you reach into tidy compartments and finish each glass without breaking your rhythm. Look at the number of compartments and whether a lid keeps garnishes fresh between rounds. Materials range from easy-clean plastic to handsome stainless that suits a display bar. Some trays clamp to the counter edge to save space. Below we compare caddies that keep your garnishes ready and your station organized.
