Chasing after your bar furniture can feel like keeping your eye on an unruly toddler - you only have to turn your back for a moment to discover your bar stools have magically made their way across the room from your poseur tables to your fruit machines, and of course nobody puts them back in their rightful place once they're done.
The result of this can be orphaned-looking poseur tables with no seats of the suitable height alongside them, abandoned sections of bar that are intended for regulars to sit at, but are now just empty, and herds of bar stools wandering elsewhere in the premises where there are no tall tables appropriate for them.
Avoiding all of this isn't actually so hard, and if you are already seeing situations like those described above, then there are clear opportunities for you to cater for your customers' needs just by adding a bar stool or two in a certain part of your premises.
For example, if punters regularly drag bar stools over to the fruit machines, make sure there are some adjacent to them that are easy to put in position - and are therefore easier for you to move back once the customer is finished playing.
A poseur table with three or four stools adjacent to your fruit machine gives players easy access to a seat or two - while leaving the table still furnished for a couple to sit at in the meantime.
In contrast to this, make sure the surrounding seating is low-level, providing a natural zoning effect that will help to prevent chairs and stools from being dragged too far from their intended position.
Often fruit machines and quiz machines are placed in a far corner from the bar anyway, where foot traffic is naturally lower, so it shouldn't be too much of a stretch to arrange your bar furniture accordingly - high stools by the gaming machines, lower tables as a kind of barrier beyond that, and then tall tables again in the usual locations closest to your bar.
You don't need to do anything special - just be clear in the 'zoning' of your bar furniture, and your customers on the whole will naturally respond.
