Restaurant Furniture Help and Advice

3D Booth DesignerOver the past year we have given quite a few tips about marketing and managing a successful restaurant. However, designing a restaurant in such a way as to be both comfortable and efficient is a hard thing to do.

We have written a few articles about Feng Shui for restaurant and how to use it for our advantage but there are some even more basic aspects that need to be taken into account.  Things that at first seem simple and obvious and are therefore often overlooked. We are talking about correctly choosing the furniture to your dining venue.

For example, when you buy restaurant tables, it is often cheaper and easier to buy table tops and table bases separately rather than buying the table in one piece (shipping charges alone are worth buying the parts separately). The only problem with this is knowing which base goes with which top. You can buy the strongest base but it might mean that you are paying more than you have to. And although for one table this won’t affect the price much, if you need a large number of items the price adds up to a significant amount.

Restaurant Table Design: Tipsy Tables

Not only do you not want your patrons to become tipsy, you for sure don’t want your tables to get that way either. Table bases that do not sit evenly on their surface or support the table top properly are not only a nuisance, but a safety hazard as well. Overloaded tables, patrons who lean on tables for support while standing up from their seat, baby seats that hinge onto table edges—all are accidents waiting to happen, particularly when the table is in disrepair.

Restaurant Tables Design: Invest in Comfort

Successful restaurants depend on much more than their menu. Comfort is way up there in the rankings. A five-star dinner may be deemed only two if the chair and table are a source of discomfort and annoyance to the diner. In fact, few things are more annoying to diners than tables that wobble, tilt, or have a base that compromises leg room.
