Used by Top Hotels, Restaurants and Bars Worldwide
Premium stainless steel cocktail stations that reduce prep time and increase output. Trusted by top hotels, venues, and bars across the U.S. and Europe.
Every angle, compartment, and rail was purpose-built by someone who has worked behind a bar and studied how bartenders actually move during a rush.
Most bar builds piece together mismatched equipment from different vendors. Kobayashi is a single, purpose-built system designed to replace all of it.
| Kobayashi | Typical Setups | |
|---|---|---|
| Design | ✓ Statement piece. Premium-grade 304 stainless steel with a sleek, professional finish | ✕ Mix of mismatched equipment from different vendors cobbled together |
| Workflow | ✓ Ice, rail, rinse, and garnish positioned within arm's reach for zero wasted movement | ✕ Components spread across the bar, forcing bartenders to walk between stations |
| Ergonomics | ✓ Raised working height (39") reduces back strain over long shifts | ✕ Standard-height wells force bartenders to hunch, leading to fatigue and injury |
| Durability | ✓ 16-gauge 304 stainless steel. Resists citrus, salt, and sanitizers. Lifetime guarantee | ✕ Cheaper metals corrode and dent. Components need replacing every few years |
| Setup | ✓ Ships fully assembled. Place it, connect the drain, start pouring | ✕ Weeks of contractor time sourcing, fitting, and welding separate components |
| Output | ✓ Up to 300+ drinks per shift with faster builds and fewer steps | ✕ Slower builds, more movement, lower output at the same staffing level |
Most bar equipment starts falling apart within a few years. A Kobayashi station is the last one you will ever need for this position.
From compact setups to high-volume service lines, each model is engineered for speed, efficiency, and durability.

Keep your bar top clean and organized with Kobayashi drink rails. Built from the same 304 stainless steel as our cocktail stations, with an integrated drain system and optional custom logo engraving.
"Since we installed the Kobayashi station at our bar, all of our bartenders prefer working at this station over our older setup."
"We replaced our entire underbar setup with Kobayashi. The build quality is incredible and the team helped us design the perfect layout."
"We added a Kobayashi station to our restaurant and bar and it's been a great investment. The efficiency is obvious from day one. Other bartenders who come in as customers keep asking if we're hiring."
Your station ships fully assembled on a pallet via freight carrier to continental US addresses. We coordinate delivery scheduling directly with you. Liftgate service is available upon request. No assembly, no contractor, no surprises.
It depends on your venue size and bartender count. The 52" serves 80-120 guests with 1-2 bartenders. The 65" handles 120-170 guests with 1-3 bartenders. The 88" supports 150-200+ guests with 2-4 bartenders.
Our lifetime guarantee covers all structural components and manufacturing defects. If anything fails due to workmanship, we will repair or replace it at no cost to you. This covers the frame, ice chest, welds, and all stainless steel components.
A drop-in unit is designed to install into custom countertops. It lacks the bottom frame, legs, and waste drawer that come with the standalone model. Choose drop-in if you are building the station into existing cabinetry. Choose standalone if you need a complete, ready-to-use station out of the box.
If you are not completely satisfied with your station within 30 days of delivery, contact us and we will work with you to make it right. Our goal is to make sure every station is the perfect fit for your venue.
The station comes with pre-installed 2" drains. Plumbing connections are not included but can be set up by a local plumber during installation. The station also works without permanent plumbing using a bucket drain setup.
Every station includes a 1-hour bar design consulting session. We will help you spec the right model for your space and service style.
