A galley cart bay door latch system serves to secure catering or galley cart(s, as are used on commercial aircraft, within the aircraft's galley. The system relies on two substantially horizontally disposed latch levers (12a, 12b) to secure the galley door (16) which in turn restrains a galley cart in position within the galley. Lever T bar retainer (19) engage location nubs (18) provided on the door to secure the door. Raising the latch lever releases the door and positively pushes the door outwardly. The latching configuration allows the doors to be slammed shut without the need to further manipulate the latch levers.
