"Verwendungszweck
"Das Gerät ist speziell für den Einbau in Lebensmittel- und Ausgabetheken entwickelt worden.
"Das Gerät ist zur Kühlung von flachen Lebensmittelerzeugnissen, wie z.B. Snacks, Kuchen und flachen Tortenstücken bei Temperaturen von ca. 6°C bestimmt."
From instructions for some sort of food cooling device. "Lebensmitteltheke" is food counter, I guess, but what about "Ausgabetheke"? Display counter, maybe? I found a reasonable picture of one here:

Comment: "Thanks Anne and the peer graders. I think I'll go with Trudy's suggestion and call this a service rather than serving counter. Thanks also to the others for their ideas."

delivery counters
By extrapolation and deduction of your own suggestion. There are also a number of hits on Google for "delivery counters". I hope this fits in to your context.
