An outdoor table for every setting.

As the largest outdoor furniture retailer in the country, we have a lot of outdoor tables to choose from and know a lot about them. The right patio table can set the stage for everything from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, so how do you choose the right outdoor table for your needs and space? We have the answers. In this blog, we introduce you to a variety of outdoor table styles we carry and explain how each can work in your backyard.

An outdoor table for every setting.

Let's start with bistro tables, the epitome of charm and intimacy in outdoor dining. These petite tables are ideal for small settings such as balconies, tiny patios, or intimate garden nooks. Typically designed to accommodate two people, bistro tables come in various shapes and materials, from classic cast aluminum to modern aluminum and sleek glass tops. Their compact size makes them versatile, fitting into tight spaces without sacrificing style or functionality.

Square Outdoor Tables: Perfect Angle
& Perfect Outdoor Accessory

If clean lines and modern simplicity are more your style, square patio tables offer a timeless option for outdoor dining. Designed to seat four to eight people comfortably, square backyard tables complement any outdoor space. Whether pushed into a corner or arranged in the center of the room, square tables blend into any backyard space. Explore a range of materials, from teak, resin wicker, cast aluminum, polymer, and aluminum, to find the perfect square table to elevate your outdoor entertaining experience.

Extendable Patio Tables: Flexibility for Every Occasion

For those who love to entertain a larger crowd or simply appreciate the flexibility of adjustable seating, extendable tables are a game-changer. These ingenious pieces feature a central mechanism that allows you to expand the table surface, accommodating extra guests with ease. Whether hosting a family barbecue or a dinner party with friends, extendable tables ensure that twelve to fourteen people have a seat at the table without compromising on comfort or style. Available in a range of sizes and materials, from sturdy teak to weather-resistant aluminum and cast aluminum, these tables combine practicality with elegance, making them a must-have for any large outdoor space.

Round Patio Tables:
See Everyone & Everything

Round outdoor tables promote chatter and connection, inviting ideas to flow effortlessly around their curved edges. Perfect for gatherings of four to six people, these tables encourage intimate connections and shared experiences, whether enjoying a leisurely brunch or a sunset cocktail hour. With their timeless appeal and versatile design, round tables complement any outdoor setting, from rustic farmhouse patios to contemporary urban rooftops. Choose from natural wood finishes, durable metal frames, or easy-to-clean resin materials to suit your personal style and preferences.

Hexagon Patio Tables:
Unique & Eye-Catching

For those who dare to be different, hexagon outdoor tables offer a unique twist on traditional outdoor dining. With their unconventional shape and eye-catching appeal, these tables stand out as focal points in any outdoor setting. Hexagon outdoor tables seat six to eight people comfortably and encourage lively conversations and memorable moments without sacrificing style. Choose from natural wood finishes, cast aluminum designs, or polymer to express your individual style and personality.

Outdoor Tables with Built-In Lazy Susans:
Effortless Dining and Entertaining

For added convenience and functionality, consider investing in an outdoor table with a built-in lazy Susan. This ingenious feature allows you to easily pass dishes and condiments around the table, ensuring that everyone can access their favorite flavors without reaching across awkward distances. Whether hosting a casual barbecue or a formal dinner party, tables with built-in lazy Susans streamline the dining experience, allowing you to focus on enjoying the company of your guests. Explore a variety of styles and materials, from classic wooden designs to contemporary metal accents, to find the perfect table with built-in lazy Susan for your outdoor oasis.
