From neighborhood cafés to national restaurant groups, Designform Furnishings has spent nearly 20 years building seating that holds up to daily service. Our restaurant chairs, bar stools, lounge seating and tables are commercially rated and available in hundreds of wood, metal, fabric and leather combinations.

Work with a local Designform rep on finishes, samples and pricing, and our project team will manage your order from specification through delivery.

Every kind of restaurant we furnish

Same factory and the same commercial-grade construction behind all of it — but a steakhouse, a taproom and a 900-square-foot fast casual store get specified very differently. Tell your rep which one you are and they will point you at the right frames, finishes, heights and lead times.

Restaurant chairs

Choose from solid wood, European beech, steel and aluminum frames with wood, upholstered or cord seats. Every design is built for the stacking, sliding and cleaning a busy dining room demands.

Restaurant bar stools and counter stools

Most of our stools come in both bar height (about 30–31″ seat height) and counter height (about 24–25″), so the bar and the counter can match. Backless, low-back, swivel and bolt-down options are available.

Frequently asked questions

What seat height do I need for a bar vs. a counter?

Bar stools typically have a 30–31″ seat height for a 40–42″ bar. Counter stools have a 24–26″ seat height for a 34–36″ counter.

Can I use my own fabric?
