A prep, serving and storage space between the kitchen and dining room, with cabinetry, counters, a sink or bar and room for entertaining.
A butler's pantry is part pantry, part staging area, part serving station. It sits between the kitchen and dining room, holds the china, the glassware and the small appliances, and gives you a place to plate, pour and set out food away from the mess of the kitchen. In Nashville, where hosting is part of the culture, a butler's pantry is one of the most useful additions a home can have, and one of the most beautiful when it is designed with care.
We plan the cabinetry to suit your entertaining style. Upper cabinets with glass fronts display serving pieces, lower drawers hold linens and flatware and a counter gives you landing space for trays and platters. Many clients add a prep sink, a beverage fridge or a wine rack. Lighting, a stone or wood countertop and hardware complete a space that feels like furniture, not just storage.
A counter between kitchen and dining room lets you plate, carve and set out buffets without crowding the main kitchen.
Glass-front cabinets show off good dishes while drawers and deeper cabinets hide linens, flatware and small appliances.
A small prep sink, an undercounter beverage fridge or a wine rack makes the pantry an entertaining hub.
Under-cabinet lighting, a quality countertop and carefully chosen hardware lift the space from storage to showpiece.

You tell us about your pantry and what you want to change, from a small upgrade to a whole new walk-in, and we set a visit that fits your day.
We visit, measure, check the walls, outlets and heat sources and talk through how you cook, shop and entertain.
We plan the layout, shelf depths, doors and lighting and give you an itemized written estimate with options.
Materials and hardware are ordered, the space is cleared and protected and any other trades are scheduled.
Shelving, cabinets, doors and lighting are installed level and tight, with trim and finishing done as we go.
We walk the finished pantry with you, explain care and adjustments and leave the space clean.
