 F&B service outlets use different types of glasses for serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Glassware contributes to the appearance of the table and the overall attraction of the service area. There are many standard patterns available in the market, although all are primarily designed to meet the needs of the range of drinks offered.
