How to choose the right Front of House Aprons

• Consider the style of service in your venue and choose apron colours and patterns that match your brand and interior.
• Check apron length and coverage to ensure staff have enough protection while still moving freely around the floor.
• Select hard-wearing polycotton or cotton blends if you expect heavy daily use and frequent commercial laundering.
• Look for pockets and money pouches if staff need to carry order pads, PDQ machines or cash during service.
• Choose adjustable neck straps and longer waist ties to comfortably fit different body shapes and layered uniforms.
• Plan for peak trading by keeping spare aprons on hand for shift changes, spills and hygiene compliance.

Care and maintenance

• Wash aprons regularly at the temperatures recommended by the manufacturer to remove food stains and maintain hygiene.
• Avoid harsh bleach or abrasive chemicals that can fade colours and weaken fabric fibres over time.
• Dry aprons thoroughly before storage to prevent odours, mildew and fabric damage in busy laundry rooms.
• Inspect ties, neck straps and seams frequently and replace worn aprons to maintain a professional appearance.
• Separate heavily soiled aprons from lighter loads to improve wash results and extend garment life.
• Store clean aprons in a dry, designated area so staff can quickly access fresh garments at the start of each shift.

Pair your aprons with complementary chef jackets, shirts, trousers and staff uniforms from our wider clothing range.
