Seating

4 products

Restaurant seating sets the comfort, look and turnover of a dining room or patio. This collection currently features NARDI resin arm chairs and bar stools – including the Bora and Net arm chairs and the Faro and Trill bar stools – sold in 4-packs for fitting out a section at once.

NARDI is an Italian contract furniture maker whose resin pieces are designed for indoor and outdoor use, which suits patios, terraces, cafés and hotel pool decks. Browse the rest of the Furniture range to match seating with tables and bases.

Types of restaurant seating

  • Arm chairs – arms add comfort for longer meals and give guests something to push up from; they take a little more width per seat.
  • Bar stools – taller seats for bar tops and bar-height tables, useful for rail seating and patio high-tops.

What to consider when choosing restaurant seating

  • Indoor or outdoor use – resin chairs shrug off rain and are easy to wipe down, which makes them a practical patio choice.
  • Seat height vs. table height – dining chairs pair with roughly 30" tables; bar stools pair with roughly 42" bar tops and tables.
  • Arms or armless – arm chairs are more comfortable but seat fewer guests per table length.
  • Stacking and storage – if seating comes in each night or is stored off-season, check whether the model stacks.
  • Pack quantity and colour – these models ship in 4-packs; order full packs in one colour to keep a section consistent.

FAQ

How tall should a bar stool be?

For a bar top or bar table around 42" high, a bar stool seat of about 30" leaves comfortable knee room. Lower counter-height surfaces need a shorter counter stool.

Why are chairs sold in 4-packs?

Contract seating is usually bought by the table or section, so these models ship four to a pack. Check the pack size in the product title when calculating quantities.

Can resin chairs be used indoors and outside?

Yes. Resin chairs work in dining rooms and on patios, and are easy to hose down or wipe clean between services.
