Restaurant arm chairs

Arms change how long a guest stays. A chair with arms invites a second coffee, a slower dessert and a longer conversation, and clubs and private dining rooms lean on them for that reason. This page holds 75 arm chairs.

Restaurant armchairs

Match the furniture to how each room is used

Think about the room this piece will live in before you settle on it. A banquet hall that clears every Sunday wants chairs that lift and stack, while a bar with regulars wants a stool that stays put. Save each choice to the venue plan for that room, with its finish noted, so a second order matches the first.

Arms widen a chair, so allow at least 24 inches of table edge per guest when you seat restaurant armchairs, and check that the arms clear the table's apron.

Check the arms against the table

Compare the listed arm height and overall width with the table edge and apron. An armchair or armed stool may need a different position from a visually similar armless model.

Read the footprint

Compare the listed overall width and depth with the space at your table. Armrests, the table apron, and the chair back all affect how the chair fits into the arrangement.

Venue plans

Arms change how long a guest stays. A chair with arms invites a second coffee, a slower dessert and a longer conversation, and clubs and private dining rooms lean on them for that reason. This page holds 75 arm chairs. Measure your tables first: an arm chair is wider than a side chair and has to clear the table's edge.

Width and the table edge

Here is the question to settle before anything else. Will the arms slide under your tabletop, or will they stop at its edge? Take the height from floor to apron, the lowest point under the tabletop, and compare it with the arm height on each product page. Then check width. A wood dining chair here measures 22 7/8 inches wide, and an aluminum dining chair comes to 26 inches. With roughly 24 inches of edge planned for every guest, those few inches decide whether a 48-inch round seats five guests or four.

Most seats here stand 18 to 19 inches high, and 18 3/4 inches turns up more than any other figure. Set at a dining table 29 or 30 inches tall, that gives a guest the 10 to 12 inches of thigh room a meal needs.

Frames, seats and the rooms they suit

Wood frames lead the count, with aluminum made to look like wood close behind, followed by metal and plain aluminum, and a pair in stainless steel. Nearly every chair offers a vinyl seat, and most also come in fabric, so the cover can follow the room: vinyl where plates and glasses go down fast, fabric in a quiet club dining room. Most of these chairs have an upholstered back. Twenty-two stack, so if the room changes after dinner, plan storage space for the rest.

Prices start around $94 and run to $389.

Arm chairs in a mixed room

A whole room of arm chairs is generous and takes floor. Many houses put them at the ends of long tables or around a private dining room, and use side chairs elsewhere. Compare softer side chairs in upholstered chairs, and look at banquet chairs where the room has to clear for an event. For the terrace, choose from patio chairs, since these are indoor pieces. The same comfort at the bar sits in bar stools with arms.

Add the chairs to the room's plan in Venue plans, table by table, so the count is right before the order goes in.
