Restaurant Furniture Styles

Use restaurant furniture to create a warm atmosphere while serving a function. Guests enjoy the style while staff appreciates easy maintenance pieces.

Restaurant furniture must be easy to care for, sturdy enough to handle a lot of use and maintain a good appearance. The type of restaurant setting in which it will be used will dictate the overall style as well as construction materials. Just as with home furnishings, there are many exciting options including banquettes, booths, chairs, table shapes and heights. Restaurant chairs may be constructed from fine wood, chrome, steel or a combination. Coverings include easy to clean vinyl and tightly woven cloth.

Restaurant furniture enhances overall style and can flow to adjoining areas such as lounges and outdoor patios. Floor coverings, curtains, tablecloths and wall colors should be taken into consideration when ordering fabric-covered pieces. Small, round, bistro tables with wrought iron chairs create an intimate setting, while family style restaurants often use a combination of dining booths and banquet or square tables to ensure adequate seating. Tall tables and backed bar stools are increasingly popular in restaurant/lounge settings.

Developing an overall seating plan and style prior to shopping for restaurant furniture will help business owners determine the best value for their money. Owners who plan to upgrade or replace a few tables or chairs at a time may benefit from sales or by choosing from lines that are considered open stock.

How to Choose the Right Restaurant Furniture

Choosing the right restaurant furniture for your facility can pose a challenge. This post explains factors that influence your choice and helps you decide.

Whether you are upgrading your facility or opening a new restaurant, thoughtfully chosen restaurant furniture can lend a unique and elegant character to your establishment. Ambiance and comfort are as important as the quality of food that is served, so here are a few tips on how to choose the appropriate restaurant furniture.
1. Restaurant furniture reflects ambiance. For example, if you have a place that serves fast food and milk shakes, then you might want to opt for funky and modern styles.

2. Have something for every age. A restaurant welcomes all its clients, which means you need to own everything from a few baby high chairs, comfortable armchairs for the elderly and everything in between.

3. If your restaurant offers both indoors and outdoor dining, then you want to invest in both kinds. Outdoor patio furniture could be made from more informal materials like cane or wicker.

4. Colors matter when it comes to choosing your restaurant furniture. Light colors suit a vibrant, upbeat ambiance while more sedate colors are appropriate for an elegant dining experience.

There are Plenty of Choices for Restaurant Furniture

Restaurant furniture optionsIf you’re a restaurant owner, finding high quality restaurant furniture at prices you can afford may seem daunting at times. When a restaurant owner buys furniture, he or she doesn’t simply buy one chair or table, so finding items you can buy in bulk is essential. You need consistency in color and design to give your restaurant a clean look.

 

Whether you’re looking for tables, booths, or bar stools, there’s a company out there that provides exactly the restaurant furniture you need. Thanks to the Internet, the furniture that fits the theme of your restaurant is available at prices you can afford. The key is knowing where to look to find the best deals.

 

Restaurant seating comes in the form of booths, bar stools, and chairs, with the colors and comfort that will keep your customers coming back. Many restaurant furniture providers allow you to find the style you want, and then pick the color that coordinates with your decor. You’ll then order the number you need and it will be delivered directly to your store.

 

The next decision is upholstery type. While fabric can have a more upscale look and be more comfortable, it can be especially susceptible to stains, which can obviously be a regular problem for restaurant furniture. Unless you plan to pay for regular upholstery cleaning, stick with easy-to-clean materials such as vinyl.

Make Your Restaurant a Success with the Right Restaurant Furniture

restaurant furniture setsServing tasty meals is only one part of running a successful restaurant. Restaurateurs strive to create the right ambience in their restaurants because they realize how the quality of furniture can pip the appeal quotient of a restaurant. Opting for first class commercial furniture is guaranteed to add overall value. There are several benefits associated with the purchase of good restaurant furniture:

1. The right restaurant furniture can speak volumes about the business. Among other things, it can create funky, comfortable, classy and elegant environments. It should also match the needs of the specific clients the restaurant caters for. For example, if it is a family friendly restaurant that wants to appeal to children, the furniture must be able to produce a friendly and comfortable vibe and be attractive to children and parents alike.

2. Carefully chosen furniture adds value to the relationship that exists between the customers and the restaurant. A favorite table or a preferred chair can add to the charm a customer can develop for a restaurant.

3. Convenience is another big plus. Customers often have bad experiences when a chair is too low for a table or a table is too tight for larger built people. Correctly chosen furniture can minimize such inconveniences to the customers. They can relax and enjoy a pleasant dining out experience without squirming uncomfortably in their seats.

4. Choosing the correct numbers of chairs and tables for the restaurant can make all the difference between a professional, well managed restaurant and one that might be perceived as low class or as unprofessional.

Getting Your Wood Restaurant Furniture Ready for Winter

wood restaurant chairsMuddy footprints paired with that brush of cool air each time the door is opened. This is a true sign that winter is just around the corner and for many restaurant owners, this season can be a big challenge especially when it comes to their restaurant furniture.

If the summer season is the perfect time for restaurant owners to let their customers enjoy some great time under the sun out in the restaurant patio, winter proves to be an entirely different case. People would rather stay inside the restaurant and spend some cozy time sipping coffee and eating some steaming dishes. But aside from making sure that your customers are kept comfortable during their dining experience in your restaurant, you should also not forget to look after your restaurant’s furniture, especially since the harsh winter weather can also indirectly expose them to possible damages.

Protecting your restaurant furniture is a must particularly when it is made of wood and is used by wet clients. Humidity changes in the air is also a fact that might affect your chairs.

Winter poses the risk of water being absorbed into wood furniture such as the tables and chairs. The water that is absorbed, can eventually, soften the wood and create swollen spots and before you know it, your restaurant furniture might already be irreparable.

This is the reason why proper and constant maintenance of your furniture is essential all year round and especially in the winter. Make sure that it is always dry and properly wiped clean every time your customers finish eating. (more…)
