Dear Tossing Around Table Types in Texas,

That is a good question that many people ask. Coleman Furniture has both breakfast tables and dining room tables. The main difference is two fold. The most obvious is that breakfast tables usually only have five pieces: a table and four chairs; whereas a dining room table will include four side chairs and two wing chairs. Sometimes all six of the dining table's chairs are the same, but often, the side chairs do not have arms and the end chairs do. None of the four chairs with a breakfast table is likely to have arms.

The other difference is the style of the breakfast tables versus that of the dining tables. Breakfast tables are always much more casual. Often their designs are simple and usually evoke images of cafe tables, such as the Ashley "Spirit Ridge" 5 Piece Breakfast Table Set, or the Largo "Terrance" Breakfast Table Set. Sometimes breakfast tables can be more contemporary with plush, modern chairs. One such breakfast table set found at Coleman Furniture is the Fairmont Designs "Collage" 5 Piece Breakfast Table Set.

The best way to learn the differences between dining tables and breakfast tables is by looking at the two side by side, and what better way than from the comfort of your own home with Coleman Furniture?
