Butlers Pantry
A butler's pantry creates a functional transition space between kitchen and dining areas, serving as a staging area for meals, storage for serveware, and potentially a beverage center or secondary prep zone. Whether compact or spacious, a well-designed butler's pantry combines practical storage with elegant details to enhance entertaining while keeping the main kitchen less cluttered during gatherings.
