When dining out, the first thing any customer looks for in a restaurant is the quality and palatability of the food, and for good reason, because what's a good restaurant without good food? Nonetheless, furniture arrangement also plays an important role, as sitting comfortably is given when enjoying a delicious meal in the company of good friends.

But is it really so? We're sure you've been dining out with tables that are too small, chairs that aren't comfortable, or seats that are just plain wrong at certain times. This is why CDG felt the need to emphasize the importance of restaurant furniture placement.

Base

Proper seating sets the stage for your guests' dining experience. However, it's not just about aesthetics. Seating capacity and the continued use of furniture are just a few things to consider.

Furniture Quality

Furniture is an investment; therefore, restaurants should avoid purchasing non-commercial furniture. The price of commercial restaurant furniture reflects its ability to withstand years of daily wear and tear. For quality hygiene, tables, chairs, and booths that can be easily wiped down and cleaned are ideal for restaurants to choose from. As for the fabric furniture, it should be dirt-resistant and not fade.

Furniture Shape

The shape of the furniture can also affect the customer's dining experience. Round tables encourage conversation, while square or rectangular tables save space. Many venues have tables for two - great for dining as a couple and avoiding leaving two empty seats at a table of four or in a booth. Plus, this small table is perfect for sliding add-ons onto another table or the end of a booth to accommodate larger parties.

Furniture Style

Restaurateurs can choose between two different styles of furniture placement: stationary and portable. Anchored seating refers to any piece of furniture that is anchored to a wall or floor, and booths are the most popular type of anchored seating. Such seating provides optimal legroom, saves space, and creates a secluded dining area for customers. On the other hand, they are not easily refurbished and may not be able to accommodate larger or elderly guests

Often called "floating tables," portable tables and chairs can be placed anywhere. These seats are usually located in the middle of the restaurant, away from walls or other structures. The nice thing about them is that they can be rearranged to accommodate larger parties and are great during renovations. They can also accommodate larger and older guests. Both styles have benefits; however, the best option is to choose a balanced mix of booths, and a mix of large and small tables.

Bonus Tip: Leave Enough Space Between Tables

The restaurant needs to be careful not to cram tables into the restaurant. When designing the floor plan of a restaurant on paper, the restaurateur may think that you can fit a certain number of tables in the restaurant. However, what is said on paper does not work in reality. Granted, having enough seating to accommodate customers is one of the main goals of a successful restaurant, but people's comfort should come first.

An aspect that is often overlooked because it is often taken for granted, restaurant furniture setup is something that should be considered as it ultimately forms part of the customer's dining experience.
