Café & Bistro Seating – Canteen Chairs & Stools
Choose café and bistro seating for office canteens, staff cafés, breakout areas and informal workplace spaces.
Our range includes standard-height café chairs and high stools, including Brayford and Charford designs, for use with different table heights and workplace layouts.
When specifying canteen or breakout seating, consider how frequently the furniture will be used, how easily it can be cleaned and how long people are likely to remain seated.
What Is Café & Bistro Seating?
Café and bistro seating is designed for dining, refreshment and informal seating areas rather than conventional desk-based work.
Within a workplace, it can be used in:
- Staff canteens
- Office cafés
- Breakout areas
- Kitchen spaces
- Informal meeting areas
- Social spaces
- Touchdown areas
The category includes both conventional chairs and higher stools, allowing different seating heights to be incorporated into the same space.
Office Canteen Chairs
Canteen chairs need to suit the way the dining space is actually used.
For a staff café or canteen where people regularly sit for lunch, standard-height chairs with backrests can provide a conventional seated dining position.
When comparing chairs, consider:
- Seat height
- Backrest
- Overall width
- Table compatibility
- Surface material
- Cleaning...
