ℹ️ WHICH TYPE OF COFFEE MACHINE IS RIGHT FOR YOUR RESTAURANT?
TRADITIONAL BARISTA ESPRESSO MACHINES
Ideal where coffee is an important part of the customer experience.
A traditional espresso machine gives your team control over espresso extraction and milk steaming, making it ideal for venues wanting to serve a full café-style menu of espressos, Americanos, cappuccinos, flat whites and lattes.
Pair it with a suitable commercial grinder for a complete professional setup.
AUTOMATIC BEAN-TO-CUP COFFEE MACHINES
Ideal where speed, consistency and ease of use matter most.
A commercial bean-to-cup machine grinds the beans and prepares the drink automatically, making it easier for different members of staff to produce consistent coffee without extensive barista training.
Particularly useful during busy services when the person making coffee may also be serving food, clearing tables or working behind the bar.
Fresh-milk and soluble-milk options are available.

Why Good Coffee Matters for a Restaurant or Pub
Don’t Allow the Coffee to Let the Food Down
The stats don't lie...
- 76% OF UK DINERS SAY THAT LOW-QUALITY COFFEE IS MORE DISCOURAGING THAN POOR SERVICE*
- 77% SAID GOOD COFFEE CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MEDIOCRE AND AN EXCEPTIONAL DINING EXPERIENCE**
- TWO-THIRDS OF CONSUMERS JUDGE THE QUALITY OF A RESTAURANT,
PUB OR HOTEL PARTLY BY THE QUALITY OF ITS COFFEE**
So whether you run a restaurant, neighbourhood bistro, busy gastropub or traditional pub serving food, a good commercial coffee setup isn’t just another piece of equipment.
It’s part of the experience your customers remember.

The Perfect Grind Can Mean the Perfect Espresso
With a traditional barista espresso machine setup, the grinder is every bit as important as the espresso machine, arguably even more so.
If your restaurant, pub or diner is going down the classic espresso machine route, we stock a range of professional commercial coffee grinders from brands including Remidag, Eureka and Cunill. Smaller grinders for low volume sites, up to high-torque grinders for venues that have as many coffee covers as theydo food.
Remidag Grinders — 3-Year Parts & Labour Warranty
Our Remidag professional grinders come with a free three-year parts and labour warranty as standard.
Grinder downtime might not mean closing the doors, like it would for a coffee shop, but it does mean your waiting staff having to explain to your customers why they can't end their meal with a delicious coffee — and a 3 year grinder warranty speaks volumes about Remidag's reliability.

Cleaning & Everyday Café Maintenance
A busy commercial coffee machine needs regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure the coffee quality stays high and your coffee kit remains reliable. We sell cleaning tablets and powders, milk-system cleaners, grinder cleaners, descalers and coffee machine water filters for traditional espresso and bean-to-cup setups.
These aren't the glamorous parts of a commercial coffee machine setup, but they are imperative to keep the coffee tasting good and your coffee equipment working as it should.
All orders over £85 get free UK mainland delivery.
What Should You Look for in a Restaurant or Pub Coffee Machine?
Expected Drink Volume
Think about your busiest period, not just your average daily sales.
Ten coffees spread across an afternoon is very different from ten arriving within ten minutes after a large table finishes eating.
Ease of Use
If lots of different staff members will use the machine, simplicity and consistency become particularly important.
Speed
Restaurant and pub coffee orders often arrive in groups. Your machine needs enough capacity to keep up.
Drinks Menu
Consider whether you mainly need espresso and Americano or whether customers expect cappuccinos, flat whites, lattes and other milk-based drinks.
Staff & Training
A traditional espresso machine gives more control but requires more skill.
Bean-to-cup can make life considerably easier where coffee preparation is only one of many jobs your team performs.
Available Space
Think beyond the coffee machine itself. You may also need space for a grinder, knock-out box, milk fridge, cups and cleaning products.
Choose a commercial coffee machine designed for the workload you expect it to handle, not only for how it's going to look in your restaurant or pub (although we appreciate that that's also important!)

ℹ️ FAQs About Coffee Machines for Restaurants & Pubs
Straightforward answers to help you find the perfect coffee machine for your pub, restaurant, bistro or diner
What is the best coffee machine for a restaurant?
There isn’t one coffee machine that is best for every restaurant. The right machine depends on your expected drink volume, menu, staffing, available space and whether you want a traditional barista or an automatic bean-to-cup setup all affect the right choice. StafCo can help you narrow the options down.
What is the best coffee machine for a pub?
Many pubs benefit from a commercial bean-to-cup machine because drinks can be prepared quickly and consistently by different members of staff. However, traditional espresso machines can work very well in gastropubs and other venues where premium coffee is an important part of the offering.
Is a bean-to-cup coffee machine suitable for a restaurant?
Yes. Bean-to-cup machines are particularly useful where different members of staff need to prepare consistent drinks quickly without extensive barista training, although we'd recommend fresh-milk versions over soluble milk to enhance your restaurant's reputation for quality ingredients.
Does a restaurant need a traditional espresso machine?
No. Traditional espresso machines are ideal for venues wanting a full barista-style coffee service, but a commercial bean-to-cup machine may be more practical where speed, consistency and ease of operation are more important.
What size coffee machine does my restaurant or pub need?
That depends primarily on your busiest service periods and the number of drinks you need to prepare at once. We can help you match the machine capacity to your expected demand.
Do I need a separate coffee grinder?
If you choose a traditional espresso machine, yes. A suitable commercial coffee grinder is an essential part of the setup. Bean-to-cup machines normally have their grinder built in.
Can I buy a complete café coffee machine package?
Yes. We have some great savings with both traditional barista espresso machine package deals and bean-to-cup machine package deals - combining selected machines with complementary equipment and accessories. Some packages also offer substantial savings compared with buying each item separately.
Can I lease a coffee machine for my restaurant?
Commercial coffee machines can be available through leasing as well as outright purchase. Get in touch and we can explain the available options and get your a tailored quote.
Plus, leasing a coffee machine
offers a business some amazing tax benefits.

Yes, for sure. Tell us about the type of business you're opening, expected customer numbers and the drinks you want to serve. We'll help you narrow down your options without overspending.
