Restaurant booths can be an essential part of your seating plan. Dining booths add charm and prestige to your restaurant and influence your interior design. Booths are also a great way to maximize floor space and give you customers more privacy and room. Booths simply create a mood of togetherness and coziness that helps to encourage patrons to spend longer and eat more in your restaurant. Booths can be customized and include a variety of shapes and sizes. This comfortable seating option comes in a wide variety of styles and choices such as wood benches or fully upholstered padded backs and seats.
Customers like booths because they offer better privacy, more comfort and more protection from traffic as well as being cozier. They also offer more room than chairs do. Restaurants are great for business because they maximize floor space, providing more seating in any given space. Booths can upgrade the look of any venue, giving it a sophisticated look.
Booths can also become an essential part of your restaurant interior design. They come in many shapes, materials and styles. The choices of different kinds of booths range from wood bench booths to 6 channel upholstered booths and more. You should carefully measure the dimensions of your available floor space before choosing how many booths and what kind you want. Many restaurants place booths along the walls, but they can also be placed in the middle of your dining room.
Restaurant booths come in many different shapes and sizes. You can choose from one of our wide selection or a custom shape and size can also be made:

Double Booth
Double restaurant booths feature seats on both sides seating 2 people on each side for a total of 4 people.

Choosing the right height for your booth depends on different factors such as what you will be using it for, how you want to integrate the dining booth into your restaurant, how it will affect the look of your decor, and the level of privacy you want to offer your guests. Restaurant Booths can be made in any size you like but there are industry standards. Overall booth heights (from the floor to the top of the back) will vary based on the look you want and the needs of your space.
Many restaurants opt for backless waiting benches for the lobby or reception area. A back rest of 48" is the standard height most commonly used to provide additional comfort and privacy, while the 60" and 72" height are used mainly in night clubs or venues where customers' privacy is more valued and needed. Other common choices are 36"or 42”. A height of 42” will usually be just tall enough to reach the top of someone’s head. This provides the privacy to satisfy guests who are looking for an intimate experience. A booth in this height or taller usually comes with a head roll, which is an upholstered padded piece at the top of the booth which is used to provide extra comfort. The booth height can influence your interior design style too, with taller booths of 60” or 72” height having a more grandiose appearance that will make guests feel like they are VIPs.
