Outdoor Tables to Love

Outdoor tables to love

As well as being practical and essential, the right outdoor table – dining, coffee or something in between - serves as the perfect way to anchor an al fresco celebration with family and friends as we head into the cooler months. At Design Warehouse we offer a plethora of options, whether you’re looking for an outdoor dining table, outdoor table and chairs set, outdoor wooden table, concrete table top, extension table, smaller folding table or more.

Read on for some of our most popular choices, and why we love them so much.

The outdoor dining table

Teak Dining Set | Capri Double Extension Table and 8 Kensington Chairs-0

An all-weather dining table for al fresco entertaining in style is a must in any beautiful outdoor living area. If you’re planning a more formal meal but still want to take things outdoors, the Capri Extension Table and Twelve Como Chairs Set is the ideal choice. It includes the largest dining table available in our range of stunning teak tables, and being dignified, accomplished and multi-functional; it’s the most versatile and popular set we have on offer. The Capri Extension Table and Twelve Como Chairs Set includes our fabulous, ergonomic Como Chairs, with two arms and ten sides. The central focus is the amazing Capri Oval Double Extension Table, which extends from an astonishing 220cm - 260cm - 300cm thanks to its unique butterfly extension design. In addition, the non-movable centre piece allows you to put an umbrella in, and doesn’t fold away when the table is not extended. Or, if rustic and intimate is more your BBQ style, the Hunter Reclaimed Teak Dining Table is a beautiful choice. Made from hearty reclaimed teak wood, it looks beautiful and is strong as well. The teak is smoothed out and beautifully crafted, and if left unfinished will age over time to a soft, silvery hue. We love the character and rustic charm of teak as it evolves, and the imperfections and grain of the wood are the things that make this table so unique and stunning.

Giving you endless options, we also love our unabashedly contemporary Stainless Steel Dining Set with Table + 8 Chairs, an incredibly versatile modern dining set. Sophisticated and luxurious; the Stainless Steel Dining Set with Table + 8 Chairs features one of our amazing Stainless Steel Extension Tables, beginning at an elegant 165cm by 90cm and extending to 285cm long, giving you great options for large lunch and dinner parties. The Bruno Chairs are a fantastic match, made from Batyline® mesh and #316 Stainless Steel with Grade-A Teak to last and last. You can also choose from taupe, black or white mesh to suit your space.

If you like your outdoor setting with a mixed and matched aesthetic, our Trestle Table and Edge Chairs Outdoor Dining Set is a stunning option that our customers love. For this outdoor dining set we paired our famous outdoor Trestle Dining Table in reclaimed teak with black Edge outdoor dining side chairs. It is a perfect example of mixing and matching materials that are very different, but complement each other beautifully.

Outdoor coffee tables

Sutherland Outdoor Coffee Tables
When it comes to furnishing your dream outdoor living area, buying a coffee table might not be first on your list. Perhaps you are more focused on finding the right sectional for your space, or the most comfortable relaxing chair. But in fact, your choice of coffee table is often the anchor in the room — especially in grander living spaces where a great piece can really bring everything together. It’s the perfect place for casual catch ups too, with a relaxing chair on either side and a cheese platter in the middle.

A fabulous example of where design meets structural integrity, our Sutherland Outdoor Teak Coffee Tables are beautiful pieces to add a sense of warmth and solidity to your space.

With incredible aged teak taking centre stage for these beautiful pieces, the character of the wood is further illuminated by excellent craftsmanship. Large slats of wood form a table top with edges that have been delicately curved, while slender lengths of wood are rounded off to support the top, in a base that is both stylish and airy. Sitting easily indoors or out, the amazing Sutherland Outdoor Teak Coffee Tables are available in two sizes that can effortlessly fit any space.

A beautiful option in much-loved teak, the Amalfi Teak Coffee Table is made with a low stance to match the rest of the Amalfi collection, but also works beautifully in many other settings. This flat, wide table has an interesting pattern consisting of 21 long thin planks of grade-A teak that are 5cm in width spanning 98cm across, and the smooth surface provides the perfect platform for drinks, books or even as a seat for an unexpected guest.

Bistro-style tables are perfect for smaller spaces such as apartment balconies and petite courtyards, and we have some beautiful options in store now.

Sitting sturdily on a solid powder coated aluminium base with four points for balance, the Andy Round Reclaimed Teak Bistro Table is perfect for patio and balcony settings as well as for commercial use in savvy restaurants, bars and cafes. The perfect shape and size for dining a deux, the classic shape and round tabletop in handsome reclaimed teak make the Andy Round Reclaimed Teak Bistro Table adaptable to almost any setting and aesthetic, and it is also the perfect piece to keep on hand for when extra guests drop by.

In addition, a Powder Coated Aluminium frame means that Andy is lightweight and strong so can be easily moved into place when needed, while a Grade-A teak top means that this is a piece that will weather beautifully and just grow more stunning over time.
