Custom Restaurant T-Shirts

Staff shirts and merch for restaurants, bars, cafes and food trucks, screen printed since 2012.

Shirts for the staff and the merch wall

Most restaurant orders are two jobs in one: shirts the crew works in and shirts customers buy on the way out. We print both. Every price in our catalog includes the shirt and the printing, the price per piece drops as the order grows, and the minimum is 12 pieces.

What restaurants order

Staff shirts for the kitchen and the floor

Staff shirts get washed hard and often. A 50/50 blend like the Gildan 8000 is a common pick for that, and the Gildan 5000 is one of the lowest-priced tees we print. A one-color print costs the least.

Merch for the wall

Retail-fit tees like the BELLA + CANVAS 3001 and the garment-dyed Comfort Colors 1717 are what most restaurants put up for sale. Both come in dozens of colors.

Front and back prints

The usual restaurant shirt is a small logo on the left chest and a bigger design on the back. A second print location bills at 60%, and the catalog prices any combination of ink colors and locations before you order. Our placement guide covers where prints go.

Long sleeves, hoodies and polos

The same art goes on long sleeves and hoodies and sweatshirts for the cold months. We print polos too; they aren't in the catalog, so call or email for a price.

Reorders

When a size sells out or a new hire starts, send us the sizes you need. Reorders follow the same pricing and the same 12-piece minimum.
