Have you ever pulled a stool up to a table only to realize that your legs are now uncomfortably close to the table, or alternatively, you’re now sitting uncomfortably far below the table’s surface?
There is often a lot of confusion surrounding the various colloquial names for stool and table heights. is this table counter height or bar height? how tall is a cafe chair?
Reading: Cafe height tables
In this post, we’ll break down the difference between counter height, bar height, and cafe height tables and stools.
counter height tables & feces
although exact measurements vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, a table with a top height between 34″ and 39″ is considered counter height. these tables are generally meant to correspond with the average height of a kitchen or reception counter.
counter height tables are often used as an additional prep surface in or around the kitchen or to provide a less formal setting for people to gather. People typically are more comfortable socializing around a counter-height table than a standard-height table, as there’s less of a clear difference in height between people who might be sitting and standing.

If you’re looking for stools for a counter height table, you should look for something with a seat height between 24″ and 29″.
bar height charts & feces
As with counter-height tables, there is no exact height or height range that manufacturers agree on. however, most manufacturers have set their bar height charts to have a surface height that is within the range of 41″ to 46″.
Bar height tables are so named because they are most often found in bars and restaurants. are used to encourage casual conversation as the height of the stools corresponding to the height of the bar (30″ to 36″ high seats) causes those seated to remain very close to level of the eyes with which they stand. however, it should be noted that some people find it uncomfortable to sit on a chair/stool that keeps their feet this high above ground level.
high coffee tables & feces
the discussion of what constitutes a coffee-height surface or seat is even less defined than the surrounding counter and bar heights, as “coffee-height” is often used as a colloquial synonym for any of the other two table sizes.
Although cafeteria height is sometimes used synonymously with two other heights, our research has shown that the most commonly preferred definition for cafeteria height is that it has a surface height of 34″ at 39″ or identical to counter height tables.
this means that, as with counter-height tables, you want to aim for chairs or stools with a seat height between 24″ and 29″.
