Bar Mops vs. Huck Towels vs. Flour Sack Towels: Which Do You Need?

Three workhorse towels, three different jobs. Here’s how restaurants, cleaners and laundries choose between them.

White terry bar towels with red center stripe

Bar mop towels

Small, absorbent terry towels, commonly around 16" x 19". Used for spills, counters and bar tops, often with a colored center stripe. Specified by weight per dozen.

Huck towels

Tightly woven, textured (“huckaback”) cotton towels that leave little lint. Common for glass, mirrors, stainless steel and janitorial work, usually around 15" x 25" to 16" x 26"; blue is a common color.

Flour sack towels

Large, lightweight plain-weave cotton towels for food prep, drying glassware and dishes, and covering dough.
