When it comes to private dining, the dining experience is just as important as the food itself. So, it’s critical to choose the right furniture to create a special atmosphere diners can savour over several hours, setting it apart from more casual eating environments.
Creating a stylish environment
A luxury dining experience begins from the moment you walk into the dining room, so it needs to make a great first impression. Private diners in your restaurant who are celebrating a special occasion expect to walk into a well-lit space with modern tables and chairs, set up with great quality cutlery and napkins. Trent’s Abbruzzo Carbon chair is a great option for a modern luxury dining chair for diners to enjoy their special lunch or dinner in comfort.
The décor you select for your private dining room will also have a big impact. Generally speaking, it’s better to make an impact while avoiding clutter which could lead to the space feeling cramped. It’s also important to remember that your guests may wish to decorate the space with balloons and banners for their celebration. You could have some photos on the walls, make use of flowers and plants and maybe use some candles on the table for some soft lighting. Playing music will also help create a luxury ambiance, but you need to be careful that it is not too loud and doesn’t make it difficult for guests to talk to each other. A nice touch is to ask your diners what sort of music they would like to listen to in advance.
Which size or shape of table should I choose?
Whether you are a restaurant or a hotel with private dining rooms, you need to consider the amount of space you have and how many people will be using it. For larger parties, circular dining tables will seat more people than rectangular tables and create a more inclusive environment that encourages conversation. But if your private dining room is going to accommodate a range of different group sizes, you may prefer to opt for square or rectangular tables which can be positioned together to create the right size table for each event. Take a look at some of the dining tables we offer here at Trent Furniture.
Catering for comfort
With visitors staying for a few hours per meal, you need to ensure that their chairs are comfortable and don’t leave them needing to get up to stretch and readjust. You should also think about how many chairs you put around each table. Whilst round tables may seat more people, you need to be careful to not make them overcrowded; each guest should have plenty of room to eat, as well as enough space to leave the table without fuss or struggle. Making sure your luxury dining experience is as comfortable as possible will also encourage guests to stay for longer, and with restaurants making most of their money through alcoholic beverages and desserts, this is great.
