Restaurant kitchen equipment has to perform across the whole line, from the cooking section through refrigeration and cold storage to warewashing, night after night. With Rental+ you can equip a full restaurant kitchen without buying any of it outright. You rent the ovens, refrigeration, dishwashers and prep equipment your kitchen needs on a multi-year plan, pay a fixed weekly cost with no upfront capital expenditure, and hand the servicing, parts and breakdowns to us, so the line keeps moving and a breakdown mid-service is ours to solve.

What a restaurant kitchen needs

A restaurant kitchen is a full production line, and the equipment splits across cooking, refrigeration, warewashing and prep.

On the cooking section, a combi oven does the work of several appliances with steam and precise control, and a pizza oven or grill and griddle covers the rest of the menu. Refrigeration holds the line together: a cold room, freezers and a blast chiller for safe, fast chilling. Warewashing keeps the pass clear, with hood dishwashers or undercounter dishwashers sized to the covers you do. You can rent a single appliance or fit out the whole kitchen on one plan.

Considered renting instead of buying?

A full restaurant kitchen is one of the largest capital costs of opening or refurbishing, and it is tempting to look at buying second-hand to keep the price down. Renting is a better answer for many operators, because it gets you professional, well-maintained equipment without the upfront cost and without the risk that comes with buying used kit that has no cover. Instead of finding the full price up front, you spread the cost across a fixed weekly payment and keep your capital for the fit-out, staff and launch. Service and maintenance is included, so you carry none of the repair risk, and a unit that cannot be repaired is replaced. If your menu or your covers change, you can upgrade or add equipment rather than being stuck with what you could afford at the start.

Why restaurants rent with Rental+

Renting removes the biggest barrier to a good kitchen, which is the upfront price of the equipment. Instead of tying up capital in kit that then depreciates, you spread the cost across a fixed weekly payment by direct debit and keep your cash in the business. Service and maintenance is included on every plan, so call-outs, routine servicing, parts and Planned Preventive Maintenance are all covered at no extra cost. Our fix-or-replace guarantee means that if a unit cannot be repaired, we replace it, and a nationwide network of engineers keeps your kitchen open. Every plan uses new or reconditioned equipment from leading brands, so you get dependable, professional kit backed by 46 years of experience. You can read the detail on our rental plans explained and inclusive maintenance pages.

How restaurant rental works

Getting started is straightforward. We run a soft credit check, set up a security deposit alongside your direct debit, then deliver and install your equipment. From there it is covered, with servicing and breakdowns handled for you. You can rent a single appliance such as a salamander grill on a fully maintained rental plan or fit out a complete kitchen on one plan, and the plan scales as you grow. For larger projects we provide turnkey solutions with a dedicated project manager, so a full fit-out or a multi-site rollout stays on one plan and one point of contact.
