It's a dull, wet Thursday morning at The Bull Ring in Birmingham. Matt and I have arrived at handmade burger Co. to take some photos of our products in use at their restaurant just outside Selfridges. We are immediately made to feel very welcome by the Manager and her staff, who show us around the premises and where our products can be found.

Chalkboards UK has been working with handmade burger Co. for nearly 5 years, supplying them with a number of off-the-shelf products and some items designed specifically for their restaurants.

As you walk towards the restaurant, you'll notice one of our WC171 A1 A-Frame Poster Holders used to promote footfall from passers-by. In the window by the front door, hangs a double-sided poster holder we developed especially for handmade burger Co. The window display repeats the message in the A-Frame and highlight what you can expect when you sit down to eat.

Inside the restaurant, you'll find off-the-shelf products like our condiments holders, bar caddies, wall-mounted poster holders and cutlery holders (although these are used to hold crayons for the kids' colouring sheets). The bespoke items include the window hanging display, table number holders and Maître D' plinths.

All of the products we supply fit in well with the restaurant, complimenting the rustic and 'handmade' ambience handmade burger Co. has created - see the pics below. 

The photo shoot is over and it's nearly lunchtime, so where better to have some lunch?! We're treated to a fantastic peppered beef burger, thick-cut rosemary fries and some Cajun onion rings, all washed down with a glass of ice cold Brooklyn Lager. I can honestly say that it's the best burger I've ever tasted - it made my son very jealous when I showed him this picture, so I guess I'll have to take him there soon!

If you would like any more information on our off-the-shelf products, please visit our website. If you'd like us to develop bespoke chalkboard or wooden products for your restaurants, pubs, bars, shops or a promotional campaign, please do not hesitate to contact us on 01384 445844 and ask for Sales.
