Café Chairs

The use of Café Chairs is largely driven by our demand for social meeting places near our homes, in an expanding Australian population.   We want that coffee and a bagel or wrap that tastes good and is reasonably priced.  This has led to a large increase in the number of Brisbane cafes and Sydney restaurants, so that access is available to the general population to enjoy some social time during a hectic working week.

A Cafe Chair differs from a normal domestic chair in that it will have a number of qualities that distinguish it from a chair we may choose for our homes.   In smaller area's where space is at a premium, with indoor and outdoor areas, you will require a stacking cafe chair.  This enables the chair to be easily and quickly stacked at the end of the trading day and securely locked inside your hospitality venue.   Some of our most popular stacking chairs are constructed from metal or wire, and they are very strong and built to withstand commercial use.

The durability of the chair is very important, as your staff and patrons may not be as kind on your restaurant chair as they would be at home.  We have a range of durable plastic cafe chairs which feature solid polypropylene legs with fiberglass reinforcement.  Many our the plastic chairs in our commercial range stack as well, so they are a good option for the outdoor areas of your restaurant or club; and they can handle the knocks and bumps that come with cafe use.  Our most popular plastic cafe chair at the moment is the Air Chair which is an original design chair by Fiesta that is made in Europe.

Metal Cafe Chairs are also a popular choice, as they are so hardy they can withstand the toughest of commercial use.  A metal chair looks and feels solid to your patrons, and can withstand well over 200 kgs in weight.  There are many steel cafe chairs on the market today, and perhaps the most popular currently is the Bend Chair and the Fermob aluminium dining chair.  We invite you to view our range of chairs in our Brisbane showroom, our staff would be happy to assist with your commercial enquiry and you are welcome to borrow a chair or stool to test in your venue.

The number of wooden Danish style chairs available is many and varied and they also work remarkably well in a commercial environment. At the higher end of the price scale for use as a café chair, you can purchase one of our premium Replica Timber Chairs that will stand up to the rigours of public use; and will make your venue stand out from the crowd.  Popular and comfortably timber chairs are the Hans Wegner Elbow Chair and Round Chair as well as the CH88 Stacking Chairs.  These chairs look very elegant in a restaurant setting, and the padded seat makes them a very comfortable addition to any dining setting, whether commercial or domestic.

Another consideration for café owners is the life cycle of a chair. Some will want to purchase a café chair that may be cheaper than some others, but will not last as long.  However, this gives them the flexibility and budget to change or update chairs on a regular basis.  The Viento Chair or Masters Chair is perhaps the most economical of our cafe chairs, and if you add some 45 cm steel stools you can lower the overall cost of your fitout.   A small stool works really well as they are stackable and can easily be moved around by your patrons.
