What Are You Looking For When You Buy Cafe Tables?

Tolix-bartable-whiteSimply do a search for cafe tables on the internet and it returns something like 13,500,000 results. While it’s true that not all of these searches are offering commercial grade cafe furniture for sale many of them are and that means one thing – that’s one heck of a lot of furniture to take your pick from. With this in mind just what should you be looking for when searching for new or replacement cafe tables for your venue?

Quality vs budget

If you have a particular budget in mind some people might tell you to buy the highest quality you can afford. The issue is that quality and cost aren’t always inextricably linked. You could for instance spend a fortune on some top of the range cafe tables that won’t last five minutes in a busy venue with high levels of customer turnover. Likewise you could go down the cheaper route and equally end up with the same disastrous results. So what should you do? Look for furniture that has been approved by the AFRDI (Australasian Furnishing Research and Development Institute). In essence any cafe furniture that has their seal of approval has been through rigorous testing and is therefore built to last.

Size and shape

You may decide to vary the size of your cafe tables to maximise the potential profit of your floor space. For instance if you have awkward areas or small recesses you might want to consider placing a round table for two for a cosy intimate feel. After all that’s potentially one more table than you may not have thought that you could fit in. Alternatively if you have a small pavement area, then you might want to think about smaller square bistro-style tables. In essence look to plan for a variety of table sizes and buy accordingly.

Do you have a theme, style or design?

If you have a particular theme, style, or design in mind then look to purchase cafe tables that fit directly in with this. For example, if you’re going for a contemporary industrial theme then you might want to opt for industrial style galvanised tables. Alternatively if you’re going for a 70’s retro theme then you might want to think about darker wood or composite tables. Finally how about crisp white marble style Isotop tables with chrome bases for that minimalist fresh feel. Whatever you decide, if you have an idea of your theme, style, or design, you can narrow your search down considerably.

Purpose

Okay so not all tables are created equal! You can for instance use outdoor cafe furniture inside if you wish, but you couldn’t expect to use indoor furniture on your outside terrace area. Well you could, but because it’s likely to be open to the elements for prolonged periods an untreated table probably won’t last very long. With this in mind make sure you buy cafe tables for the right purpose.
