Table linen laundry for London restaurants

From the dining room to the table again

Cloths and napkins leave in bags after your last sitting and come back pressed, folded along consistent lines and bundled by size. Fold lines that suit your tables mean fewer creases when the cloth is laid, and counted bundles mean you can check a delivery in seconds.

Stains on table linen

Red wine and grease are the two marks that ruin table linen, and they need opposite treatment. Wine is dealt with as a plant colour, grease with a fat-breaking pre-treatment, wax is lifted before washing and lipstick on napkins is treated so it does not spread to the rest of the bag. If something will not come clean, we flag it rather than folding it back into your stock.

• Red wine, port and jus
• Olive oil, butter and dressings
• Candle wax
• Lipstick on napkins
• Turmeric and curry

Cloths of every size

Square, rectangular, round and long banqueting cloths, top cloths and runners. Large cloths are priced as large; small square cloths as small. Event linen can be kept apart from everyday stock if you tell us which is which.

Fitting your service pattern

Restaurants open six or seven days usually choose two pickups a week; weekend-led kitchens often prefer one on Monday. The restaurant linen calculator shows how many napkins and cloths you need to own for your pattern.
