Cafe Chairs
Cafe chairs are built for hospitality and breakout spaces: hard-wearing, easy to wipe down, and made in both indoor and weatherproof outdoor versions. Swivel, sled and four-leg frames suit different setups. For taller counters and bars, see bar stools, or read the guide below.
Need matching stools for a high bench or counter? Browse stackable, indoor-outdoor and timber options in our bar stools range.
Only if they are rated for it. Outdoor cafe chairs use weatherproof, UV-stable materials that resist fading, rust and damp, while indoor chairs are not built to survive the elements. Check the listing for an outdoor rating before using a chair outside.
A sled base is a continuous looped frame instead of four separate legs. It slides across the floor without scuffing, stacks well, and gives a clean modern look, which is why it is popular in cafes and breakout spaces.
Yes. Cafe and hospitality chairs are designed to wipe clean between customers, with surfaces that handle spills and frequent use. For outdoor settings, look for materials that also hose down and dry quickly.
Many four-leg and sled-base cafe chairs stack to clear floor space for cleaning or to reconfigure a room. Check the listing for stacking capability and how many high they stack.
All our chairs carry a warranty, with the length and cover varying by product, so review the listing or ask when ordering. Commercial hospitality use is heavy, so check the chair is rated for the setting.
Each listing is labelled assembly required or assembled. Many cafe chairs arrive ready to use or need only minimal assembly.
Yes. We offer bulk pricing on most chairs and special quotes for larger fit-outs, and Business Pass account holders receive additional discounts plus the option to invoice on credit terms, which suits hospitality businesses.
We deliver anywhere in New Zealand with free delivery on orders over $30, dispatched from our Auckland warehouse, and click-and-collect is available on many products in Auckland and Christchurch.
Indoor or out, and the frame
Indoor or outdoor first
The first decision with a cafe chair is where it will live. Indoor chairs prioritise comfort and looks, while outdoor chairs use weatherproof, UV-stable materials, treated timber, powder-coated metal or stabilised plastic, that shrug off sun and rain without fading or rusting. Using an indoor chair outside is the common mistake, so check the rating before you buy.
Frames and how they behave
The frame sets the feel. A four-leg frame is simple and stackable, a sled frame slides without scuffing floors and gives a modern look, and a swivel base adds movement at a counter. All are built to take heavy hospitality use and wipe clean between customers.
Beyond the cafe
These chairs suit breakout spaces and staff areas as well as hospitality. For taller counters and bars, see bar stools; for break rooms, stacking chairs; and to finish a waiting area, sofas and ottomans. The full range is in office chairs.
