Mercury Bistro Double Contact Grill with Ribbed Plates

This Mercury double countertop ribbed grill is a high-performance workhorse designed for high-footfall environments such as busy cafes, bistros, and professional sandwich shops. With a generous bottom plate measuring 470mm x 226mm, this unit provides the capacity to toast multiple paninis or sear various proteins at once. The twin-zone design is particularly savvy for managing operating costs; chefs can utilise both sides during the lunch rush or switch to a single side during quieter periods to save energy.

Engineered for the rigours of a commercial kitchen, the unit is constructed with a high-quality stainless steel body and heavy-duty cast iron plates. It delivers a powerful 2.9kW output and comes conveniently fitted with a 13A plug, making it a versatile choice for both permanent sites and mobile catering setups. The grill features two independent adjustable thermostats with a temperature range of 100°C to 300°C, providing the precise control needed to switch from lightly toasting bread to searing thick cuts of meat with consistent results.

This grill prioritises a smooth operator experience through intelligent design features like counterbalanced lids and dual-insulated, heat-protected handles. Safety is reinforced with built-in thermal overload protection and non-slip feet to ensure stability on any countertop. Maintenance is kept to a minimum as the cast iron surface naturally resists heavy food residue, and the removable grease tray simplifies end-of-service cleaning. Backed by Middleby, the product includes a full one-year parts and labour warranty to protect your investment.
