What are Steam Table Pans Used For?

Steam table pans, also known as hotel pans or counter pans, are used in steam tables to hold hot foods at safe temperatures. That’s why you’ll often see them in buffet lines, cafeterias, self-serve stations and kitchens in a variety of foodservice establishments. Many restaurants and catering services will have extra steam pots prepped and piled high to swap out when food runs low.

What Size are Steam Table Pans?

Steam table pans come in about every shape and size you can think of. Standard commercial steam pans measure in at full-size (12” x 20”), half-size (12” x 10”), half-size long (6” x 20”), two-thirds size (12” x 13-½”), third-size (12” x 6-⅔”), quarter-size (6” x 10”), sixth-size (6” x 6-⅔”) and ninth-size (4” x 6-⅔”). Although these are the standard measurements, you’ll still be able to find hotel pans that come in non standard sizes as well.
