Restaurant booths and booth seating

Booths along the wall, four-tops in the middle, a short run of stools at the bar. Most dining rooms start from that shape, and the wall is where these 48 booths go. Choose the shape the wall allows, straight, corner or curved, then the height, then the upholstery the room will live with for years.

Read the wall first

A booth fills a fixed length of wall, so measure each run in inches and note what interrupts it: a window, a radiator, a server station, a door that swings in. Then measure out from the wall to the nearest aisle, because the booth, the table and the guest sliding in all need that depth. Keep both figures on a card in your pocket while you browse.

Straight runs take single and double booths, and configurable booth seating holds the largest group, 38 booths built from the options you pick. Corners suit L-shaped booth seating. A room that wants a centerpiece, a round table where a party of guests can see the whole floor, turns to half-circle booth seating.

Height, backs and cover

Standard seat height is listed on 40 booths and bar height on four, and eight of them give the seat in inches: 18 to 19 1/4 at standard height, 30 at the bar. The bar-height group, gathered under bar-height booths, pairs with tables at 40 to 42 inches, the kind of raised booth that lines a taproom wall or sits beside a long bar.

Backs range from plain to channel-stitched. Upholstery options are listed on 38 booths, and upholstered booths collects the padded ones. Color lists change over time. Request a free swatch before you settle the vinyl or fabric, and again before any later addition to a room already furnished, so the new run matches the old.

Ready-made standard booth selections suit a room that wants a fixed size without choosing every option.

What booths change about the order

The 8-piece order minimum, counted in tables and chairs, leaves booths out entirely, so one worn booth can be replaced by itself. Single booths run from $198 to $979, depending on size, back and finish. If you choose upholstery outside the listed options, the booth becomes a custom order: allow as much as about 8 weeks, put down a 40% deposit, and no cancelling or sending it back after we confirm it.

Draw the walls in venue plans as their own room, with every booth length and end written beside it. The tables that sit between the seats live under restaurant tables, and our booth guides take single runs, corners and curves one wall at a time.
