From independent bistros to multi-site groups, we help restaurants create seating that works hard all day—comfortable at brunch, practical for lunch service and refined for dinner.
Seating Styles & Layout Options
Choose proven models or commission a fully bespoke scheme. Popular options include:
- Banquette Runs: space-efficient wall or back-to-back units to increase covers.
- Booth Seating: high-back privacy booths for intimate dining and acoustics.
- Chairs & Bar Stools: coordinated loose seating for flexible floor plans.
- Nooks & Curves: custom shapes to optimise awkward corners and feature bays.
- Style Details: deep diamond buttoning, vertical/horizontal fluting, plain or square panelling, piped edges and quilted panels.
Pro tip: Mix banquette runs with moveable tables and side chairs to switch seamlessly between two-tops, fours and larger party settings.
