Whether you’re a professional chef, the owner of a beautiful restaurant, or simply enjoy cooking at home, you’ve probably spent time thinking about the perfect kitchen.

However, in practice, the perfect kitchen is not the same thing! There are only two important factors when creating a restaurant kitchen:

1. The Equipment

Below you’ll find a list of the most important restaurant kitchen items, having these will allow you to prepare the food properly and keep your customers happy. If you don’t have the right equipment the quality of your food may suffer and the morale of your staff definitely will.

2. The Location

When you get your restaurant kitchen equipment you need to make sure it is all positioned correctly. This means that food items are stored near where they will be needed, your food processing equipment is easy to get to, and the big appliances are situated with plenty of access room and far enough away from each other to allow multiple chefs to work properly.

Essential Restaurant Kitchen Equipment List

Let’s take a look at the most important equipment for your restaurant kitchen:

Oven

This is one of the most important items and you’ll need to decide how big an oven needs to be. It will depend on what you have to cook but it will definitely be bigger than a domestic oven.

Grills

Grilling is healthy but if you’re considering offering vegetarian or vegan options on your menu you may want to have two separate grills.

Griddles

The griddle is very similar to the grill and still an essential part of your restaurant kitchen.

Refrigerator

A large refrigerator will help you to keep all the products you need to create fresh food for all your customers. It’s important to choose a manufacturer that will be reliable!

Freezer

Although you may prefer not to use frozen foods there are times when freezing is the best, or only, option. In these instances, you need to have a high-quality freezer.

Knives & other utensils

Your chefs and you will need a large selection of knives to ensure they can cut and chop everything they need to and get the best possible results. It will also save time and increase productivity. That has to be a good thing when you’re running a business.

Shelving

Don’t forget you need to keep mixing bowls, plates, utensils, pots, pans, and everything else somewhere. Industrial shelving is the best option as it is easy to keep clean and will allow you easy access to your pots and pans.

Cleaning Equipment

One thing that many businesses overlook until they have started trading is the equipment necessary for cleaning. This includes, but is not limited to, your dishwasher. You’ll need to be able to wipe surfaces clean after using them, having the right clothes and washing facilities nearby is an essential part of this process.

Ventilation

Finally, don’t forget the importance of removing aromas and steam from your kitchen, a good ventilation system is imperative to the success of your business.
