These days most restaurants, cafes, coffee shops and snack bars that I visit are furnished with some kind of modern cafe bistro furniture. Also known as french bistro furniture, I see it everywhere - trendy bar stools up against window ledges and chrome cafe tables and chairs in a variety of shops and stores – and the trend is now spreading.

For various reasons, people are increasingly bringing the coffee shop/cafe bistro feel to their home with cafe bistro furniture these days. Whether for the kitchen or dining area, this “cafe bistro” look can be achieved in small or large spaces using a combination of kitchen bar stools, cafe chairs and cafe tables. Folding tables and chairs, round tables, square tables, even if it's only one chair and table it should fit in somewhere! Some people love the style and design, some are attracted by the light, durable materials and most are swung by the compact sizes of the furniture meaning it can fit almost anywhere – and takes up very little space. People are being given great variety and quality with the latest designs and, in my opinion, are rightly deciding to buy modern, stylish cafe bistro furniture for their homes. Getting the coffee right is another thing!

I've seen an open plan kitchen being brought to life with some kitchen bar stools and a folding bistro table and chairs. In another large kitchen space, a canteen style kitchen table with folding bistro chairs gave the place a larger dining area, a more modern look at freed up lots of room at the same time. Good quality cafe bistro tables and chairs are now available which will last for years – and look good for years too!

With an ever growing number of designs and styles, I absolutely love kitchen bar stools. Saddle seats, gas lifts, cutting edge chrome and leather designs – I just need more kitchen area to fit more in! From simple black to fluorescent yellow, there are some striking new design and colour combinations that are 'futuristic' modern.

At Project X Office, we have a range of modern cafe bistro furniture which is suitable for either small restaurants, cafes, and snack bars or for your own kitchen area or dining area at home. From cafe bistro dining sets - with 2, or 4 chairs - to individual cafe bistro chairs and folding bistro tables there are lots of cafe furniture items to select from. Not forgetting, of course, the large range of kitchen bar stools which should have something for everyone looking for furniture to create that coffee shop feel (or cafe bistro feel) wherever the coffee is being served.
