Dining Table Size Finder — What Size Table Fits? (UK)
In short: tell us your room size and how many people eat together, and we'll recommend the right table size and shape — with elbow room to spare.
Dining table sizes, explained
| Seats | Table size | Shape tip |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | 75–90 cm / 2.5–3.0 ft round or square | Round suits small kitchens |
| 4 | 120 × 75 cm / 3.9 × 2.5 ft | The UK standard |
| 6 | 150–180 × 90 cm / 4.9–5.9 × 3.0 ft | Extending saves space daily |
| 8 | 200–220 × 100 cm / 6.6–7.2 × 3.3 ft | Needs a dedicated dining room |
Allow 75 cm (2.5 ft) between the table edge and the wall so chairs pull out comfortably, and 60 cm (2 ft) of table width per person.
