August Uniform Check-In

August  Uniform Check-In

This is your August Uniform Check-in from your friends at Bergen Linen!  From caterers to restaurants (at every price point), dressing your team may be more important than you think. 

Uniforms are different than dress codes. With a dress code, there is a lot more management involved. Someone such as your shift manager needs to be regulating each coworker’s daily outfit. End this extra responsibility by considering uniforms.

Why Should Your Team Dress Similar?

  • Makes sure everyone is looking their best
  •  Easy way to promote your brand
  • Proven that diners prefer them over plain clothes

 Bergen Linen offers restaurant wear such as:

  • Aprons 
  • Chef pants
  • Chef jackets
  • Host/hostess garments
Every restaurant and caterer have different needs. Therefore, we are happy to create a custom plan that works with your individuals AND budget. Interested in additional items? Please feel free to call to speak with at team member at (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com.

When it comes to caterers and formal events, please feel free to ask about elevated attire. Impress your guests with well-dress employees. Also, your guests can easily spot who works at your venue. This makes for the perfect well-rounded experience.

Many of our clients add their uniforms to the weekly delivery of linens including tablecloths, bar mops, floor mats and more.  By now, you may have even seen a Bergen Linen truck or van in your community. Our team provides expert linen care in the New York City and surrounding area.

Learn more about our rentals today. Tell your Bergen Linen rep that it’s time for our August uniform check-in.

Spring Has Finally Sprung This Year

Spring Has Finally Sprung This Year

Well, we finally have it – spring weather. We couldn’t be happier.  With the long drawn-out winter (and so much rain!), you have had ample time to prepare for what the spring season brings such special events and outdoor dining.

If you have an exterior dining area, you may wish to consider additional linens for those tables. Table lines provide a layer of cleanliness between one guest to the next guess. They also create a perception of an elevated experience.

Spring Events

For your spring events including Father’s Day, this is the perfect time to start thinking about additional party linen rentals that may be needed. Indeed, spring has finally sprung! And you are ready for it because you have Bergen Linen on your side.

Additionally, Bergen Linen’s event rentals are perfect for weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, birthday celebrations, graduation parties and more. Picky clients? That’s okay. Our inventory carries a wide selection of colors, sizes and options.

Before settling, consider your options in linen providers. While choosing a new service can seem stressful, our team makes choosing the right vendor easy. Our goal is to make you happy. There is no locked in contracts that force a client to feel ‘trapped’.  It is our mission to have you stay because you want to stay. We understand clients will only stay when they are happy with their linens and customer service.  So if you aren’t happy with your provider, then we should have a quick chat.

Give us a call at (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com to discuss your preferences.  (We also provide assistance in color selection for those who ask!)  Even if you have your own in-house goods, you may want to keep our number on hand for those occasions where a client is looking for something outside your linen selection.

 

Valentine’s Day 2022 Menu

Valentine’s Day 2022 

What is on your Valentine’s Day 2022 menu?  With any holiday, you probably look for new ways to work in fun, seasonal menu ideas – including cocktails (and mocktails).

While some you may wish to pass on (sorry, green bagel!), Valentine’s Day can easily be represented minus all the food coloring.

Many restaurants choose  prix fixe holiday menus.  Are these entrees your favorites? Best-sellers? Romance-inspired? Need a little inspiration yourself? Speak with your team and some trusted clients.  Many will be happy to share some thoughts on what may be date night hits.

During the month of February, you may want to incorporate some special ingredients to spice things up as well.

Natural Aphrodisiacs

  • Honey
  • Avocados
  • Pine Nuts
  • Chocolate
  • Chili Peppers

The Color of Valentine’s Day 2022

  • Cherries
  • Cranberries
  • Strawberries
  • Pomegranate
  • Red Grapefruit

Besides being delicious, all these foods have something in common as well.  They provide wonderful sources of vitamins, anti-oxidants or fiber. See you can have it all!

If you are not a fan of a holiday  menu make-over, you should at least consider a signature cocktail or dessert. Something special that your waitstaff can chat about. After all, it’s a special night out for couples. And we all need a little special in our lives – especially these last several months.

For more Valentine’s Day inspiration, follow Bergen Linen on social media. Questions about our linen services? Give us a call at (800) 789-8115 or email info@bergenlinen.com today.

Fall Party Color Combinations

Fall Party Color Combinations

Fall party color combinations brought to you by Bergen Linen. 

When planning a special event, linen rentals are the perfect backdrop for a buffet, wedding cake, perfect placesetting.

In the past, we have wanted to provide you what seems like almost every color over the sun. However, we have been reviewing our inventory.

Instead of offering  6 shades of blues, we want to make selection easier. In the past, certain colors were available in certain sizes and options (e.g. runners, tablecloths, etc.).

Well, we still want you to have plenty of color choices available. So… you can still find a great color but in the options you are looking for.

A few color combinations you may wish to consider:

  • Green & Pink
  • Yellow & Green
  • Navy & Gold
  • Blue & Silver
  • White &Red
  • Light & Dark Purple

And remember, these are complimentary basic colors. You can find the shade you like best.

Bergen Linen provides linen rentals to restaurant, caterers, event planners and DIY party designers.  When looking for linens, we kindly ask that you request either the tablecloth size OR let us know the table size. We also have this handy reference on sizing. If you are ready to place an order, please check out our handy form.

Currently, we are still working on this project. If you have questions about our selection, please email info@bergenlinen.com or call (800) 789-8115. A team member would be happy to review your choices with you.

For upcoming special events, we do let clients know that they should order sooner rather than later. Some specific colors are a first come, first serve basis.
