Cafes, bars, and restaurants seem to be moving away from traditional settings which include outdoor living and dining sets. Modern-day customers like to relax on an outdoor bar stool or squashy sofa when they meet up with friends and family. However, just like choosing any new outdoor furniture, there are some tips to be aware of when choosing outdoor bar stools.
Cafes and bars should never compromise comfort for aesthetics. It’s important, therefore, to choose comfortable outdoor furniture and selecting an outdoor bar stool shouldn’t be any different.
Just like chairs, it’s important that your customers feel comfortable when sitting on your outdoor bar stools. Comfort starts by choosing the right height of stool. If they’re too short, people won’t be able to reach your bar tables and, of they’re too high, customers may have to bend. In both cases, the experience is not likely to be good. In theory, a bar stool should take up around 70% of the height of the bar table, to be convenient and comfortable.
Just like indoor bar stools, those for outdoor use come in different shapes and sizes, with arms, backless, swivel and upholstered.
All of these stools have their own set of benefits and disadvantages, so it’s worth weighing up your options and what best meets your specific needs.
It’s important that you match your outdoor bar stools with the rest of your dining space. Therefore, you need to take into account colours, shapes, materials, and styles to maintain an outdoor dining experience that fits in with the overall theme and feel of your venue.
To conclude, an outdoor bar stool makes a great addition to an outside area giving your customers more seating options. All of these options need to provide comfort and keep your guests satisfied no matter where they are sitting.
