Cafe Linen In West Hampstead Before You Open

Yes — West Hampstead sits on the NW6 round, 7 days, 4.2 miles from our Wembley plant.

• Shared with Kilburn, Brondesbury and Hampstead — one van, one run, which is what keeps a single-site account sensible to price.
• The driver knows the streets around Finchley Road, Hampstead and Swiss Cottage — route knowledge is most of what separates a kept window from a missed one.
• A missed morning window here is recoverable the same day, because West Hampstead is only 4.2 miles out.

Both, and mixed accounts are normal. One collection covers whichever way each line is set up.

• Hire — stock, replacement and par management are ours; you never reorder.
• Wash-only — your own branded aprons come back to you, the same items, not pooled.
• Plenty of cafes do both — hire what nobody sees, keep your own name on what the customer does.

Tell your account manager and a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.

• If it happens twice, the par count is wrong — and resetting it is our job, not a favour.
• Most West Hampstead cafes are not short of linen overall — they are short of it on two predictable days, which is a counting problem rather than a volume one.
• Seasonal swings are planned in — West Hampstead in December is not West Hampstead in February, and the par count should know that.

No. Kitchen cloths and table linen go on the same NW6 collection and the same invoice.

• No second supplier and no second delivery day — because the menu grew.
• Chef whites, oven cloths and table linen — added as lines, not as a new agreement.
• 120 restaurants around NW6 are on this round too — so the food side is not an afterthought here.

That is the point of putting West Hampstead on the NW6 round rather than a separate trip. Cafes open earlier than almost anything else we serve.

• The time is agreed when the account opens — and a relief driver inherits it with the route.
• Timed around Finchley Road because that is where the delay actually happens.
• If a drop is missed, a missed morning window here is recoverable the same day.

It is the wash, not the cloth. A cycle built for table linen leaves them behind.

• Cafe cloths and aprons run on their own classification — not as the tail end of a kitchen load.
• Milk protein needs the right temperature, not just a hotter one — too hot sets it into the fibre.
• Grey whites are usually a wash problem, not an age problem — a West Hampstead cafe buying aprons three times a year is paying for a bad cycle, not for wear.

No long-term tie-in and no exit fee.

• Terms flex with seasonal demand — rather than locking you into a winter volume you do not use in August.
• Nothing needs you to be out of your current contract first — we will count your week while you are still under someone else.
• Stock arrives before the old supplier is stood down — you are never between suppliers.

No minimum, on any line. A single-site independent cafe in West Hampstead is an ordinary account for us.

• Small sites go on the same NW6 round — the journey is already happening; you are a stop on it.
• 63 cafes around NW6 are already on it — the vehicle is sized for this kind of work rather than adapted to it.
• Volume changes are expected — a quiet January in West Hampstead and a busy July are the same account.
