Bring an architectural shape to your table settings with our 150ml tear bowl hire from Expo Hire. These vitrified porcelain tear bowls have an asymmetric silhouette, creating a sharp visual contrast with traditional round plates. They provide a clear point of focus for each course, making your amuse-bouches or palate cleansers stand out with modern elegance.
They withstand the fast pace of any service kitchen. Their chip-resistant rolled edges mean they handle frequent use and move into the dishwasher after your last guest departs. The steep sides keep contents contained, preventing spills and maintaining presentation. With a 150ml capacity, they are just right for individual portions, from a delicate starter to a rich dessert. These tear bowls perform well and look sophisticated.

For wedding breakfast service, these bowls introduce a varied plate arrangement, contrasting with more traditional round crockery. They are also a smart choice for high-end networking events serving individual portions of hot or cold appetisers. Your guests will notice the attention to detail in your table setting.

Unless the two person carriage charge has been paid for, deliveries and collections are made by a single driver, who has 15 minutes to deliver or collect your order.
Our drivers are not allowed to take items up or down stairs or into lifts, and all deliveries need to be made within 50 metres of the vehicle. Any delays beyond the standard delivery time caused by access issues or items not being ready will be charged at £120 per hour or part thereof.
If a driver arrives and delivery or collection is impossible then unfortunately a wasted journey charge will apply. You will be sent a live tracking link so you can monitor your delivery in real time — our drivers do not make phone calls to notify of arrival times.
If access to collecting the hired equipment is denied, blocked, or impassable, a wasted collection journey will be automatically charged. Any parking tickets issued to vehicles whilst executing a delivery or collection will be charged for whilst we appeal.
