Only 3 of these chairs stack, so most of them get carried or slid at closing. 29 coffee shop chairs are here, from $68 to $172, with metal, wood and wood-look frames. Choose by footprint before you choose by back.

Frames, seats and backs

Metal frames number 21, wood frames 5, and 4 more are metal with a wood look. Seats are vinyl on 20, wood on 20, fabric on 11 and metal on 2. Upholstery options appear on 18 chairs, and colors shift from year to year, so request a swatch before you put one color on thirty seats.

Backs run curved on 10, ladder on 4, upholstered, vertical slat and X on 3 each, and tolix style on 2. One chair has arms, 3 have padded backs, and 1 carries a BIFMA listing on its product page.

Prices range from $68 to $172.

Footprints and stacking

Four examples show the range. Footprints go from 15 1/2 by 15 inches to 20 1/4 by 23 1/4, and heights from 31 to 35 inches. A metal dining chair at 15 1/2 by 15 inches is the smallest, and a stackable wood dining chair at 20 1/4 by 23 1/4 is the biggest.

Stacking matters at 9 PM. Three stack, which means the rest are lifted, slid or carried one by one. If your closing crew is one person, count that.

Behind each chair, allow 18 to 24 inches for a guest to push back, and keep the aisle at about 36. Each diner also wants roughly 24 inches of edge on the table, 18 at the tightest.

Indoor use is listed on every chair, and patio use on 2. Keep the rest inside, and rinse and store those 2 at season end.

Replacing chairs without closing is a table-by-table job. Swap four at the 2 PM lull, then wait for the next one. On the order, each configuration is its own line: the same chair in two finishes counts as two.

Beside these chairs

Need more stacking? Stacking chairs is built around it. Want a metal-only look? See metal chairs. The matching surfaces are in coffee shop tables, and the wall seating is in cafe booths.

Keep one spare of each model in the back room, so a chair that breaks at noon does not leave a gap in the row. Try the chairs in a cafe plan, pulled out from the table, and look at what is left of the aisle.
