Fresh air and food go hand in hand

Having a dedicated spot outside to share meals isn’t just practical but also a lifestyle upgrade. Think of it as your home’s secret ingredient to easy entertaining and weekend relaxation:

• Better for hosting. An outdoor dining setting gives guests room to relax without crowding the kitchen.
• Adds value to your home. A well-styled outdoor area can improve appeal and function.
• More comfort in warmer months. Enjoy meals in the breeze with robust and long-lasting materials, along with outdoor cushions.
• Expands your living space. Outdoor furniture helps turn a patio or backyard into a functional extension of your home.

When should you choose outdoor dining furniture

Outdoor dining furniture is built to handle changing weather, direct sunlight and open-air conditions while still offering comfort and style. You'll find outdoor dining chairs, tables and sets made from sturdy materials like powder-coated metal, aluminium, timber, teak, UV-resistant wicker, Weathergrain, and Sunbrella™ fabric.

These pieces work best in patios, decks, courtyards and backyards where durability matters. Unlike indoor furniture, they're made with outdoor fabric, rust-resistant frames and easy-care finishes that suit year-round use across Australia's varying climates.

How to create an outdoor dining area

Designing a great outdoor dining space starts with a bit of planning and a clear sense of how you want to use it. The right setup balances function with a look that feels like home.

Start with the basics, then build it out from there:

1. Map out your space. Measure your outdoor area and note where shade, doors and pathways fall.
2. Choose a style. Coastal, modern or casual, let your theme guide your picks.
3. Match your pieces. Pair outdoor dining tables with chairs, side tables or a lounge setting that complements the design.
4. Plan for the weather. Pick weather-resistant materials like aluminium, rattan or outdoor fabric to keep your setup looking great over time.

How much space do you need for outdoor dining?

Making sure your outdoor dining setup fits comfortably is easier than it sounds. Start by measuring your available space, including room to move chairs in and out with ease.

As a general rule, allow at least 80 to 100cm of clearance around your dining table. This gives enough space for chairs, side tables or even an outdoor bar stool without feeling cramped. It's all about making your outdoor area feel open, not overcrowded.

What type of outdoor dining furniture suits your space?

Now comes the fun part: finding the pieces that fit your space, lifestyle and style. Our range covers is designed to meet different needs, whether you're after flexibility, function or a fully coordinated look.

1. Outdoor chairs

Outdoor dining chairs should feel as good as they look. We offer options in aluminium, timber, plastic and rattan, with UV-resistant finishes and designs made for everyday use.

Stackable chairs help save space, while cushioned armchairs offer a more relaxed vibe. Just be sure to pair your chairs with a table height that keeps meals comfortable and easy.

2. Outdoor tables

From round to rectangle, square to oval, outdoor dining tables come in a mix of shapes to suit how you like to gather. Choose timber, powder-coated aluminium or wicker to match your outdoor style and space.

If you host often, a larger table makes sense. For smaller areas, a compact round dining setup can be just right.

3. Outdoor dining sets

Choosing an outdoor dining set takes the guesswork out of styling. These ready-made combinations include matching chairs and tables designed to work together in size, shape and finish.

You’ll find sets for four, six or more, all made from high-quality materials built for durability and ease. It’s a simple way to get that cohesive, pulled-together look.

What is the best material for outdoor dining tables and chairs?

Not all materials are made equal, especially when your outdoor space needs to handle weather, wear and weekend catch-ups. Whether you're setting up for laid-back alfresco dining or a full outdoor dining experience, picking the right finish helps keep things looking great with less upkeep.

Each option brings its own strengths:

• Sunbrella™ fabric: Known for its exceptional durability, this fabric resists fading, moisture and mildew while offering the softness and comfort of indoor materials. It’s ideal for cushions and seat covers that stay vibrant and comfortable in any climate.
• Timber: Warm and classic, but needs regular care to stay looking its best, especially in humid regions like NSW.
• Aluminium frame: Lightweight, rust-resistant and ideal for low-maintenance alfresco dining.
• Wicker: Offers a relaxed, textured feel and works well in covered areas. UV-resistant wicker needs less upkeep in sunny spots.
• Plastic: Budget-friendly and easy to clean, though best kept in shaded areas to avoid fading.
• Metal: Durable and modern, especially when powder-coated to handle year-round conditions in any outdoor space.

How to decorate outdoor dining table

Styling your table adds personality to your setup and brings a little indoor charm to your outdoor living space. Whether you’re hosting friends in Brisbane or enjoying a quiet bistro-style breakfast in Sydney, it doesn’t need to be overdone.

Try a few of these simple ideas to lift the look:

• Add greenery with low-maintenance plants or a small herb centrepiece.
• Use textured placemats or outdoor fabric runners to soften the setting.
• Mix in warm lighting with candles, lanterns or battery-operated string lights.
• Choose durable tableware that suits the mood, whether relaxed, casual or refined.
• Keep colours light and natural to complement timber, rattan or powder-coated surfaces.
