Outdoor Bistro Sets

An outdoor bistro set is the en plein air version of the breakfast nook, bringing with it a simplicity, sanctity, and beauty that is easily experienced and tough to explain. A little corner of your backyard that inexplicably yet perceptibly adds to the enjoyment of artisanal coffees and teas, good reads, and tasty conversations that occur before noon, the bistro set is simply fantastique. There are as many ways to make a two-person table as there are types of outdoor spaces , so here's a review of what you'll find!

Aluminum

Aluminum is fairly lightweight and inexpensive, and is most often found in a bistro set impersonating wrought iron or another metal. There are a large number of beautiful, complex castings made of aluminum, with chairbacks boasting floral, lattice, scrollwork, and other motifs that recall brick streets and open-air cafes. This metal is conveniently low-maintenance and naturally weatherproof, making it a natural choice for outdoor seating situations.

Resin Wicker

Resin wicker is a super-unique material that combines the classic look of real wicker, the weatherability of modern resin, and the versatility to fit any timeless or modern design. You'll never need to cover it, polish it, or treat it, and when it's dirty you can simply hose it off. If that sounds unsophisticated, it's not - some of our most graceful and striking modern designs are wrought in wicker.

Wood Bistro Sets

When you picture dining al fresco at a French café, you probably picture a wooden bistro set with folding chairs and a cute matching table. We have plenty of those here, but you'll also find other options at home on the balcony, at the cabin, or at the lake. Wood often requires a little more care than some other materials, but the look is both unfakable and unmistakable.

Wrought Iron

You can't go wrong with wrought iron. High-quality outdoor furniture has been made from this heavy-duty metal for ages. Wrought iron tables and chairs carry classic lines and pair beautifully with mosaic tile tabletops, well-appointed pillows, and scrollwork designs and patterns. It can be expensive, but there's no mistaking the best.
