The Borrello B1965 nails that sweet spot between aesthetic appeal and  commercial-grade functionality. It’s a design classic for a reason, but the addition of the solid elm seat elevates it, making it feel more premium and  considered than all-metal alternatives.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Steam Engine Coffee House in Sheffield was looking to upgrade its mismatched furniture to create a more cohesive and  professional look. They needed chairs that were stylish, hard-wearing, and  easy to manage during their busy morning rush and  evening clean-up.

"We wanted a chair that looked brilliant on our social media but could also survive the reality of a busy café. The Borrello chairs were the perfect solution. They're incredibly sturdy, and  the wooden seat is a much nicer touch than plain metal. Our customers love them."

Robert Finch – Proprietor

The new chairs immediately lifted the café's interior, and  the stackable design has cut down the team's end-of-day cleaning time by over 15%.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Your chairs arrive fully assembled, so there's no fiddly construction needed.
  • Simply unpack the box and  inspect each chair to ensure it's perfect.
  • Position them at your tables, ready for your customers to enjoy.
  • Give the pre-fitted floor protectors a quick check to make sure they're secure.

Keeping It Going

  • For daily cleaning, wipe the frame and  wood seat with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Use a mild detergent for any stubborn spots, but avoid harsh or abrasive chemicals.
  • Periodically check that all parts are secure, as constant use can cause things to loosen over time.
  • When stacking, lift and  place them carefully to avoid scratching the powder-coated finish.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Café & Bistro Chairs

Not sure which seating fits best? Here are a few pointers to help you decide on the perfect chairs for your business.

Measure Your Space

Check your table heights and  the space you want between tables to ensure chairs fit comfortably without feeling cramped for guests or staff.

Match Your Vibe

Consider your décor. An industrial metal restaurant chair is brilliant for modern, urban, or rustic themes, adding instant character.

Durability is Key

Look for robust materials like powder-coated metal frames that are specifically designed for commercial wear and  tear, not just light home use.

Think About Cleaning

Smooth, non-porous surfaces like treated wood and  metal will save your team a huge amount of time and  effort during daily cleaning routines.

Factor in Flexibility

If you host events or need to clear the floor regularly, stackable chairs are a non-negotiable feature that will make life much easier.
