The Galley Workstation has quickly become the most used appliance in the kitchen. All meal preparation, cooking, serving, entertaining, and washing can be done using this fully functional Culinary System. By utilizing three tiers, you are able to layer Culinary Tools that slide above and below each other; positioning them in front of you when you need them and placing them underneath other Culinary Tools when not needed. Every task can be accomplished while working within the Workstation, not around it. All Culinary Tools can be kept in the system so they are ready to use when you are! Your kitchen will be ergonomic, efficient, clean, and so much more enjoyable.
The Galley is useful in every size and type of kitchen. The Galley is not a traditional kitchen sink where you lose work space. The Workstation maximizes space with three tiers of functional and ergonomic work space. The vertical, layered Galley system utilizes Cutting Boards, Drying Racks, Colanders, Mixing Bowls, and other tools to actually add work space to your kitchen. Our generously proportioned and thoughtfully engineered Culinary Tools enable you to perform every task inside of The Workstation, containing the mess within the system throughout the process.
The Galley products are sold exclusively through our network of Authorized Galley Dealers and Designers. To find an Authorized Dealer or Designer in your area, visit the Showrooms on our website. If there is not a dealer in your area, please call 1-800-375-4255 and we will assist you. The Galley is not sold online and is only available through an Authorized Dealer or Designer.
The GalleyWorkstations product line includes Workstations, WashStations™, Work&WashStations, BarStations®, and HydroStations. You can add one or two DryDocks® to all of these except the Hydrostation. There are over 700 possible combinations of models and configurations available. Custom options are also available upon request. Even though there are many options, choosing the right Galley(s) for your home is actually very easy.
The Galley DryDock® is a 2” deep 12” or 18” extension that you can add to one or both sides of any Galley. It expands the functionality of your Galley Workstation without sacrificing cabinet space and allows you to “dock” your Culinary Tools away from the basin whenever you want.
Every Galley Basin is made from one piece of 316L Marine-grade Stainless Steel. A beautiful, custom Angel Finish is applied to every Basin. The Angel Finish was developed to soften the high reflectivity of standard Stainless Steel finishes and for easier maintenance. The finish resists water spots, hides light marks and scratches and is very easy to clean. The finish is also easily renewable back to a perfect factory finish! Please contact our Customer Service department regarding instructions for renewal at 800.375.4255 or email customerservice@thegalley.com.
We offer three different Materials for our Culinary Tools: American Black Walnut, Graphite Wood Composite, Natural Golden Bamboo, and High-Density Resin.
3/4″ American Black Walnut – With its exceptional durability and stunning dark hues, this premium 3/4″ thick wood perfectly complements our beautiful selection of Culinary Tool Materials and finishes.
1/2″ Graphite Wood Composite – This is an eco-friendly and non-porous wood composite material. Certified by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) as safe for food preparation it is also heat resistant up to 350°F and dishwasher safe. Graphite is an excellent choice for indoor or outdoor Workstations.
3/4″ Natural Golden Bamboo – More dense than maple, bamboo is emerging as the top choice for chefs. It is dense enough to resist knife scarring and if conditioned appropriately, resists water penetration and letting bacteria find a place to form. Bamboo is green, renewable and eco-friendly. We hand-select the Bamboo to ensure only the most beautiful material is used for Culinary Tools.
5/8″ High Density Resin – Exclusive Gray and Designer White are made of commercial-grade, high-density resin, which is engineered for durability, low maintenance, and safety. The textured surface safely holds food in place without slipping. The resin does not absorb bacteria, splinter, chip, swell, peel, rot, warp, bend, or crack. Our resin is BPA Free and NSF Certified, heat resistant up to 180ºF and dishwasher safe. Both finishes are manufactured with UV stabilizers making them an excellent material for outdoor Workstations.
The Ideal Galley Kitchen Layout kitchen includes a 4ft-7ft Workstation in an island or peninsula outward facing with a cooktop on either or both sides. This creates the perfect preparation and cooking zones. We would recommend no more than 2-3 inches between the Workstation cutout and the adjoining cooktop. Locating a WashStation close by, ideally directly behind the Workstation, is incredibly useful. We recommend placing a dishwasher on either or both sides of the Washstation creating an ideal Wash Zone. The Wash Zone is typically on the wall, possibly under the window where the regular kitchen sink has traditionally gone. This is especially helpful to keep dirty pots, pans and dishes out of the primary Workstation when preparing and serving your meal. We refer to this setup as The Galley Lifestyle Kitchen Layout because we believe it offers a better way to prep, cook, serve, entertain, and clean within your kitchen, the heart of the home.
The cabinet size needed for The Workstation is listed in the model number that you selected. For example, the Ideal Workstation 5 (IWS-5) means that the cabinet dimension should be 5′ or 60″ in width.
Smaller Workstations and WashStations will fit into standard /available cabinets. Larger Workstations and Work and WashStations typically have cabinets that are made for The Galley Workstation.
Typically, it is installed by your contractor or whomever is installing your cabinetry. The Galley Workstation is installed into the cabinetry with a support or cleat system, (see product Installation Guide), and then the countertop is mounted on top. The Workstation does not get clipped to the countertop like a typical kitchen sink but rather goes into the cabinetry as an undermount sink. Proper installation is imperative for proper support and complete functionality, so we have included installation guides, cut-out dimensions, and countertop templates with every Galley.
Our Customer Service team is available to talk to installers and countertop fabricators anytime. We have a library of tools including videos to assist them with the proper installation of your Workstation.
The Galley Automatic Strainer Basket, Manual Strainer Basket or Garbage Disposal Flange with Basket do not come with the Workstation but can be easily added depending on your application. The Basket knob is produced with our Angel Finish to coordinate perfectly with the Workstation Basin. Every Galley does come with an Elevated Drain Cover standard.
Yes. The drain opening is the standard size for US drains. To confirm that your disposal will fit, check that its connecting flange will fit a 3-1/2” drain opening.
Absolutely. Whatever you can think of, we can probably do! Popular custom requests include apron-front Workstations, increased length (to fit perfectly into an existing cabinet), drop-in or top mount, 9” basin depth, and center drain. We can even do full Stainless Steel Worktops (counter tops)! Have another idea? Try us!
Yes, and the list of options available to enhance your Galley experience is always growing! For example, the Dual-tier Condiment Serving Board can turn The Galley into a super efficient preparation station or a wonderful buffet for entertaining. Do you like chopping above the countertop? If so, the 2″ thick Chef’s Block or any of our Upper Deck’s® are for you. If you prefer to soak dishes and hand-wash we also have a Wash Basin that has a removable plug so no need to fill a 7’ Galley Workstation with soapy water, you can pop in this Optional Tool.
These are just a few, you can see all the available Optional Culinary Tools here
The Galley Workstation meets all plumbing code specifications, including UPC and cUPC.
Stainless Steel products will always scratch from use, but no need to worry as scratches can be prevented or removed on The Galley. To prevent scratches, we always recommend purchasing a complete Galley Bottom Grate Set. They are made exclusively for Galley Workstations and will protect the bottom of your basin. If scratches do occur, the Galley’s unique Angel Finish is renewable back to factory condition! Please contact our Customer Service department regarding instructions for renewal at 800.375.4255 or email customerservice@thegalley.com.
Galley Basins are manufactured with passivated 316L marine-grade stainless steel, which makes this material both stain and corrosion-resistant. In the event that the passivated layer is damaged, it is unlikely but possible that rust can be transferred to the surface from another metal. If the Basin is installed outdoors in a salt-water environment and not cleaned frequently, in addition to the protective layer being damaged, rust may appear. Rust transfer is derived from a contaminated metal on the Basin surface or from another metal being in contact with the Basin below the counter.
If surface corrosion (rust) appears, we recommend cleaning the affected area(s) with citrine® stainless steel clean + polish using a microfiber cloth or a non-abrasive sponge. Please contact our Customer Service department at 800.375.4255 or email customerservice@thegalley.com if you experience difficulty cleaning the affected area(s) or if you need any further assistance.
We provide a Limited Lifetime Warranty for the tiered Stainless Steel Basin. See the Warranty for more specific information. The Culinary Tools are not warrantied and are designed to last for many years with the proper care. Please see our Use and Care Section of the website for more information on how to care for the Galley Workstation and Galley Tap.
All of our standard Workstations are in stock, so depending on where you live, you should receive yours within seven to ten days of placing your order with your Authorized Galley Dealer or Designer. For custom Workstations, please allow five to six weeks from the time you place your order.

The Hot & Cold Tap, which pairs perfectly with The Galley Tap or the BarTap for instant hot or cool filtered water (Digital Hot Water Tank included, filter not included). We also have a complete Tap Accessory line, which includes the Soap Dispenser, Deck Switch, Air Gap, and Hole Cover.The entire Tap collection is available in six standard finishes: Matte Stainless, Polished Stainless, PVD Gun Metal Gray™, PVD Satin Black, PVD Brushed Gold and PVD Polished Rose Gold.
The Galley Tap is the first and only kitchen faucet thoughtfully designed, engineered and manufactured to function perfectly with a specific line of kitchen sinks, or in our case, kitchen workstations. Simply put, it completes The Galley Workstation. The key product features are:

The Galley BarTap® was designed to be a slightly smaller companion to our Galley Tap. The BarTap offers the same high level of design, functionality, engineering, and finish. It is perfectly suited for our BarStations but can also be paired with our smaller Workstations and WashStations. This height also allows for placement under cabinets or shelving above any Galley.
The Galley Hot & Cold Tap is the newest addition to the Galley Tap line. Beautiful, symmetrical and engineered with a hot water handle that springs back to the off position when not in use, it comes with a super-high quality Digital Hot Water Tank for your convenience. It should be accompanied with a Galley Water Filtration unit.
The Galley offers you four different Tap accessories. The Ideal Soap Dispenser is a heavy-duty liquid soap dispenser that is as functional as it is stylish. It is easily refilled from the top and its 5 ½” projection and clearance leaves room below for your hands and a sponge while a Culinary Tool is on the upper tier. It also extends well past the upper and lower tiers of the Galley Workstation for ease of use. The Ideal Deck Switch, with its above the countertop design, conveniently and easily operates any disposal. The Ideal Air Gap and Hole Cover are also available.
The entire Tap collection is available in six standard stainless steel finishes: Matte, Polished, PVD Gun Metal Gray™, PVD Satin Black, PVD Brushed Gold, and PVD Polished Rose Gold.
The PVD process, (Physical Vapor Deposition), vaporizes a solid metal to a plasma of atoms or molecules; the vapor is then deposited in a vacuum chamber as a high-performance coating. Used in the aerospace and biomedical fields, PVD is the hardest and most corrosion-resistant coating to strengthen and protect your Tap for a lifetime. It is more environmentally friendly than traditional coating processes such as electroplating and powder coating.
The Galley Tap line has been designed in the USA, engineered in Switzerland, and is manufactured in Italy.
We recommend one Tap for our IWS 2, 30, 3 and 4 Workstations. These are one person Workstations. We recommend two Taps for our IWS 5, 6 and 7 Workstations which are all two or three person Workstations. Two Taps are ideal for the larger Workstations as they can accommodate multiple cooks working side by side. Each cook having their own water source is ideal!
For the perfect Galley Tap and Tap Accessory placement recommendations please see The Galley Workstation Installation Guide.
Yes it is. Because it is made out of 316L marine grade stainless steel, it works perfectly in indoor or outdoor applications.
The Galley Workstation meets all plumbing code specifications, including UPC and cUPC.
We provide a Limited Lifetime Mechanical and Finish Warranty for the Tap products. See the Warranty for more specific information.
Using a proprietary fibercarbon block, The Water Filtration System is certified for reduction of lead, chlorine, cysts, particulate class 1 and other contaminants. This system removes microns from 0.5 in size. For an average reduction chart please refer to the Water Filtration System specification page.
The Water Filtration System has a 7900 gallon capacity but the quality of water varies by location. Typically, the filter should be replaced every year but in some cities, every 6 months is best.
In order to take the Galley Workstation to an entirely different level of function and beauty, The Galley commissioned renowned kitchen interior and fine furniture designer, Doug Durbin, to create something absolutely extraordinary, both inside and out. The collection of Galley Dressers is the result of that effort. Thoughtfully designed and fully integrated, the Dresser has become the new standard for fine culinary kitchen furniture. They are stunningly beautiful, exquisitely appointed and remarkably functional… everything you could possibly want in a complete kitchen workstation.

The Dresser Hardware is made of solid brass. Each piece is machined, finished, and hand-burnished to perfection by the finest hardware craftsmen. Each Galley Dresser is signed and badged with its own flush mounted Unlacquered Brass I.D. Plate. The Dresser Hardware is also available for the entire kitchen, the collection includes: Knob, Small Pull, Medium Pull, and Appliance Pull.
