walk-in freezer

Restaurant's cold storage

A walk-in freezer is a refrigerated room large enough to enter and move around in, used for storing frozen goods in restaurants, grocery stores, and other commercial kitchens.

Unlike reach-in freezers, walk-ins accommodate bulk storage and allow staff to organize inventory on shelves: The chef sent the prep cook to grab more shrimp from the walk-in freezer.
