Whether it’s a weekday tea with the kids, a big Sunday roast, or a catch-up with friends over a glass of wine and some nibbles, dining tables are where life truly happens. From compact space-saving dining tables to large ones made for entertaining, you’ll find the right shape, size, and style to perfectly match your home and lifestyle right here.
Round dining tables are brilliant for small spaces or open-plan homes. They create a relaxed, chatty vibe and are great for squeezing in an extra guest or two.
Need more elbow room? Go for a wood dining table in a classic rectangular shape. They’re ideal for longer, narrower rooms or seating big families. A drop leaf dining table is perfect if you need something neat for daily life that can expand when friends pop round.
Most standard kitchen tables seat 4 to 6 people comfortably, with sizes starting around 120cm to 160cm in length. A large dining table (180cm+) gives you room for 8 or more, ideal for entertaining or those growing families.
Top tip: Leave about 75–90cm of space around the table so chairs can be pulled out easily and people aren’t squeezing past the sideboard mid-dinner!
An extendable dining table is an absolute game-changer if you’re short on space but love hosting. Many open up with a hidden leaf or pull-out section and pack down again when you need more floor space.
A white dining table looks bright and fresh — great for Scandi or minimal spaces. In contrast, black tables make a bold statement and work beautifully with metal or velvet dining chairs.
Prefer something timeless? You can’t go wrong with an oak dining table. It’s sturdy, warm, and fits rustic, classic, or contemporary decor.
Make mealtimes smoother, cosier, and more stylish with a table that suits your real-life routines.
