Built for Speed, Designed for Flow

The Difference

Designed by a Bartender and Workflow Engineer

This is not a stainless steel box with a drain. 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.

Less movement, more output. Everything within arm's reach.
Faster drink builds. Ice, rail, and rinse positioned for speed.
Better for your back. Our stations sit slightly higher than standard for improved posture and flow during long shifts.
More fun behind the bar. A layout that makes building drinks enjoyable, not exhausting.
Happier bartenders, higher retention. That is the real ROI.

300+

Drinks per shift

2-4

Bartenders per station

Built to Last Decades

304 stainless steel construction throughout. No plastic components. No parts that wear out in 2 years. This is the last station you will ever buy for this bar position.

Lifetime structural guarantee included.

Engineered for Speed and ROI

A bartender and workflow engineer designed every component to reduce movement, eliminate wasted steps, and make building drinks faster and more enjoyable. That translates directly to higher ticket volume and stronger returns per shift.

~300 drinks per shift on 65" and 88" models.

Zero Hidden Costs

Every station ships fully assembled with all components included. No assembly fees. No surprise parts. No contractor required. Your included 1-hour bar design consultation ($200 value) ensures the right fit before you commit.

Ships palletized via freight, fully assembled.

Kobayashi vs. What You Are Probably Working With Now

	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

52" for intimate bars (80-120 guests, 1-2 bartenders)

88" for high-volume operations (150-200+ guests, 2-4 bartenders)

Standalone models ready to use out of the box

Compare All Stations

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. Every order includes a 1-hour bar design consulting session to help you decide.

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.

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.

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 or a custom bar build. Choose standalone if you need a complete, ready-to-use station out of the box.

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 and consulting session ($200 value). We will review your floor plan, discuss workflow optimization, help select the right model, and answer any technical questions about installation and setup.

All stations are made from commercial-grade stainless steel that is easy to clean with standard bar cleaning products. Wipe down surfaces after each shift, rinse the ice chest and drains regularly, and the station will maintain its finish for years.

From compact setups to high-volume service lines, each model is engineered for speed, efficiency, and durability. Backed by a lifetime guarantee.
