Bain maries are an excellent way to keep food warm at indoor and outdoor events. These twin pot bain maries for hire are perfect for soups, chillis, casseroles, and more.

Product Description

A bain marie is a piece of catering equipment hire which is used for keeping warm. These are particularly good for keeping food warm for buffet and prolonged food service.
