Purchasing Restaurant Booths For Your Dining Establishment

By Essie Osborn


You are opening a new restaurant soon and are about to make decisions about the seating arrangement of the furniture. Four tops, deuces and rounds of six or eight will make up the bulk of your arrangements but you are considering adding restaurant booths for cozy and semi-private dining. This will add both charm and comfort to your eating establishment.

A large variety of fabrics and other materials are available to use for the benches. These may include wood, vinyl, leather or many types of upholstery fabric. Select the type that will greatly enhance the areas and is best for the type of business and service you have. A cafe or coffee shop would do best with vinyl or wood while a fine dining establishment would veer toward brocade fabrics and real leather. You

You will be able to find exactly what you are looking for through restaurant supply businesses. If they do not have what you need in stock, they have the contacts to find it for you. You can also peruse online sites for ideas and table placement. Take the time to draw out your floor plan to be sure it is going to be effective in the space that you have.

If you have a very tight budget, there are often used furnishings of this type available at auctions and business closing sales. They can be reconstructed to fit the spaces you have designated. They can also be refinished or reupholstered to match your decor. These special additions to your venue will be very well worth the time, labor and materials to make them work in your facility.

If the floor plan of your establishment has many nooks and crannies and is very unusual in shape, you may have to have this type of seating especially made. Your first challenge would be to fit the benches in the spaces provided and then tables can be either purchased or made to fit these areas. Measurements would have to be extremely accurate to ensure a perfect fit.

Always keep your customer's needs and wants in mind when laying out the furniture for a dining area. The tables and benches of this type of seating should be easily accessible but still private and quiet. They can be lined up against a wall but look for other out-of-the way nooks and corners to strategically place them. Always keep the seating away from customer and employee traffic and the kitchen doors.

The beauty of this type of food service furniture is that it works equally well in both casual and formal venues. Coffee shops, cafes and breakfast establishments use these arrangements to provide a quick and quiet place for dining and conversation. Gourmet dining venues and upscale steak houses also provide this type of seating for romantic meals and discrete and private dinner meetings.

Placing the perfect seating arrangements in your dining establishment does not have to be a challenge. Think of what your customers would prefer and go from there. Having high-demand seating in cozy and inviting areas will help promote your business as well as give your clients options for small business meetings and romantic rendezvous.
