Olympia Athena Hotelware Narrow Rimmed White Plates, Pack of 12, Diameter: 165mm / 6 1/2 inch, Catering and Restaurant Grade | CF360

I bought these plates to match my side plates and bowls of which are from a different manufacturer. The colour of thes eplates match well so it was a good choice I made.You may be aware of some reviews on some other products, where the reviewer comments on the price and says that he / she could have bought a dinner set for the same. Well, I too am aware of such comment and I am also aware that those cheap dinner sets do not last long as they easily chip, crack and break.These plates are thick, heavy and nice and strong. I wanted large dinner plates and these are larger than expected. The rim is well raised and narrow so the plate can hold more of the food and loads of gravy / sauce with any spills. These plates are a good two inches larger than my previous ones that they have replaced and they do hold much more than I can usually eat.The plates are ideal for Christmas / Easter lunches as they can easily hold all the meat, trimmings, Yorkie Puds and loads of gravy without having to pile the food high.I am recommending thes eplates as they are very good quality, will last a long time and they are good value for their size , thickness and weight.

Can microwave dishwasher safe

These plates arrived much sooner than the estimated delivery date which was a bonus. Although they were well packed unfortunately one in the middle of the twelve plates was broken. I do not blame the supplier for this, it obviously happened in transit. The other 11 were fine and I did not complain to the seller as I don;t hold them responsible also it was only the one and I didn't really need 12 anyway. Plates are sturdy and well suited for everyday use. Sizewise they are suited to a relatively modest size main meal or for light lunches etc.

These plates are brilliant. Great value, good basic white plate with a good lip to keep gravy from going over the edge. For years I've struggled through my plate of dinner because I was brought up not to waste food - so I ate it ALL and usually felt bloated & uncomfortable. These plates are more like the old fashioned size of plate - and plenty big enough. Hubby would find them too small - but for me they're perfect. Highly recommended.

Hotel grade plates. Dishwasher proof, break resistant, 1970s portion sizes. What's not to like?Had them for over a year and used daily in the dishwasher, subject to energetic and clumsy kids and no chips or any other issues.

Unfortunately one of the plates was broken on delivery. We have kept the others as they are perfect, but it is a shame one broke before making it to us.

Just over 20 quid for 12 plates is very good value for money. Not sure the difference between hotel ware and domestic ware but these will do fine for us. If you look carefully some very slight blemishes on some of the plates so if you’re a perfectionist these might not be for you, but for normal everyday use these to me are great and a really useful size.
