Dining Table Sizing Guide

Choosing a Table Size

When shopping for a dining table, consider the following first:

How often you host or need seating for more than 4.
What other uses (i.e. outside dining) you envision for your table.
The size of the room.

Second, to get an idea of the maximum size table your space will allow, measure the room.

Fold a sheet to the approximate size and shape you envision for your table and lay it on the floor. Measure from the wall to the sheet to get a visual idea of what size table will fit comfortably. To provide adequate room for people sitting at the table to get up, push their chair back, and walk around the table, aim for at least 48” from the edge of the table to the nearest wall or a piece of furniture.

Tabletop Size

For tabletop area, allow a minimum of 24” per guest, (but 30” is better for more elbow room).
For rectangular tables (the most popular table shape), add 12” of depth to each end for guests seated at the head and foot of the table.
For leg tables, measure for the additional 12” from either the head or foot of the table to the first person sitting on the right or left.

Table Width

Most dining tables are 36” wide, which leaves room for place settings and serving pieces. Keep in mind that dining tables wider than 48” will be more difficult to reach across.

Table Shapes

The size you choose will be determined by the shape that best fits your needs and style.

Rectangular: Classic and versatile. Most popular dining table shape.

72” long seats eight comfortably, with one person at each end.
96” long seats 10 comfortably, with one person at each end.
120” long seats 12 comfortably, with one person at each end.

The Amish Falcon Trestle Table in the popular rectangular shape is shown in cherry with an onyx base.

Round: Create a casual and intimate atmosphere instantly.

36”- 48” diameter will comfortably seat four.
60” diameter will comfortably seat six.
72” diameter will comfortably seat eight.

The Amish Ensenada Single Pedestal Table is available with a 48” or 54” diameter and standard or counter height.

Oval: No sharp edges. Offer flexibility for guests seated at ends, bringing them together for easy conversation.

60” Oval table can seat up to 6.
97” Oval table can seat up to 8.
102” Oval table can seat up to 8.
120” Oval table can seat up to 12.

Some round tables turn into oval tables when leaves are added, like our Normandy Pedestal Table shown in our Sarasota, FL store.

Dining tables with extensions are a convenient way to seat more people on special occasions. Check out the four main types in action in our handy table extension video.

Table Height

Tables can be built in three heights: Table, counter, and bar.

Most standard dining tables are 29”- 31” high. This traditional height is more formal and is ideal for hosting regular family dinners and celebrations. Since this is the most common height, you’ll find the widest variety of styles.

The Amish Bradbury Double Pedestal Dining Room Table can be custom-made in several sizes to fit your needs.

Counter height tables are 34”- 36” high, and create a more casual dining experience. The added height creates the illusion that the table takes up less space.

The Amish Ripple Back Pedestal Table in counter height pairs beautifully with Amish Ripple Back Bar Stools.

Bar height tables are generally 40”- 42” high. They create a casual atmosphere, and their height and width make them ideal for small spaces.
