Mercury Bistro Large Single Contact Grill - Ribbed Plates

The Mercury MEP-M-SARR-1 is engineered for high-footfall cafes, bistros, and food trucks requiring rapid throughput of paninis, meats, and toasted sandwiches. Equipped with heavy-duty ribbed cast iron plates, this unit delivers excellent heat retention and consistent branding marks, ensuring food is cooked with precision and speed. The 300mm x 226mm cooking area is designed to maximise output, allowing operators to maintain high service standards during busy periods while ensuring a reliable return on investment.

Technical reliability is central to the design, featuring a 2.2kW output managed through semi-embedded elements that prevent cold spots across the plates. For immediate installation, the unit is supplied with a 13A plug, making it compatible with standard UK power outlets without the need for specialised hardwiring. The robust stainless steel chassis and high-tension counterbalanced hinge system are built to endure the rigours of a professional kitchen, providing a stable and durable platform for daily operations.

Operator efficiency is enhanced by a precise adjustable thermostat with a range of 100°C to 300°C, providing the versatility to handle a wide variety of menu items. Safety features are standard, including thermal overload protection and dual-insulated heat-protected handles to ensure a secure working environment. Each unit comes complete with an integrated drip tray to capture excess grease and non-slip feet for added stability. This professional-grade grill is backed by a Middleby one-year parts and labour warranty.
