A bar table can be a practical way to create an informal eating area in a kitchen or open-plan space where there is no built-in breakfast bar. It gives you the height and feel of counter seating without altering the room and can be a useful alternative to squeezing in a small conventional dining table.
Bar-height seating works well for quick meals, coffee, working on a laptop or giving someone a place to sit while the kitchen is in use. It can also make conversation feel more natural: someone sitting at a bar table is much closer to the height of someone standing and cooking than they would be at a lower dining table.
Check the clearance beneath the table, the width available for each Venjakob bar stool and whether arms or wider seats will restrict how closely they can sit together. It is usually better to choose the table and stools as a combination rather than treating them as separate decisions.
If you are unsure whether a bar table or compact dining table will work better, bring your room measurements with you. We can help compare the height, footprint and seating options, as well as alternatives from our wider bar table collection.
