An ice bar system utilizes an ice bar unit having a sunken well or reservoir circumscribed by a floor member and front, rear, and lateral walls upstanding from the floor member. Refrigerant filled coils located beneath the surface of the floor member are utilized, via a compressor system, to create a solid block of ice within the reservoir, after it is filled with water. The ice bar unit also has mounting brackets which extend outwardly from its lateral walls, each mounting bracket has horizontal and vertical members which frame the ice bar unit, the horizontal member also being conveniently available as arm rests for bar patrons. |
