Greetings!
A concrete bartop can add beauty and functionality to both indoor and
outdoor kitchens, whether in a commercial or residential setting. It can
range from an intimate wet bar or breakfast nook for two to an expansive gathering
spot for the patrons of a busy brew pub or nightclub. What's more, concrete bars
can be embellished with festive decorative effects not normally used for a utilitarian
kitchen countertop. We've seen contractors do some amazing things with LED lighting,
glow-in-the dark aggregate, recycled wine bottles, and logos or other graphics.
See these design tips and ideas for raising the bar with concrete.

Size it Right: Standard Bartop Dimensions
Bartops are generally taller and have deeper cantilevers
than standard kitchen countertops to allow ample legroom for seated guests. For
guidance, review these industry standard dimensions, take a photo tour of concrete bartops, and get other building tips.
