Perfect size table for kitchen nook bench
I just had a kitchen bench installed and I am struggling to find a table. I want to do an oval table, so it doesn’t feel so square/rectangular in my house. In front of this kitchen nook is a large rectangular island.
My first floor is open floor plan. I found the 72” Banks round extendable to oval table at Pottery barn and love it. Problem is it doesn’t extend full length of bench! Total bench length in front of window is ~130”. Should table fill all of bench space?
Any thoughts/ recommendations are appreciated!

kitchen nook - what table
Comments (14)Well, no. Because of the foot print, desk (I'd remove it, anyway), and electrical for the chandelier. The built-ins are meant to be part of the eat-in area. An upholstered bench, without serving as table seating in this set-up, would probably be rarely used and a waste of space. Tear it out for traditional chairs that fit or have cushions made. Personally, I don't care for this configuration because it makes the people on the window side have to squeeze between wall and chair to get out. In my younger years, I'd just crawl underneath and pop out the opposite side....See MoreKITCHEN NOOK Table
Comments (3)Space-saving tip: try a bench instead of chairs- on all or one side of your table. Make sure you can push the bench under the table so you can stash it away when not in use.

Comments (4)I would first decide how much space you need between the bench and table. A pedestal table seems a good choice in your case. A 60" table sounds big to me if the space is just 67" wide....See MoreI need to figure out what size table I need in a kitchen nook
