Product Description
The Bolero Soho is a bentwood-style stacking chair constructed from polypropylene resin rather than traditional bent timber. This gives it the familiar curved profile associated with café and bistro seating, while removing the maintenance concerns that come with wood in commercial environments. The chair is sold in packs of four and is available in black.
In practice, polypropylene holds up well in settings where chairs are moved repeatedly, stacked at the end of service, and wiped down daily. The material does not absorb moisture, so it is suitable for covered outdoor terraces and beer gardens as well as indoor dining rooms. Lighter than equivalent timber or metal-framed chairs, the Soho is straightforward for front-of-house staff to reposition during a busy service without disrupting neighbouring tables.
Key operational advantages include:
- Stackable design keeps floor space clear between services
- Non-porous resin surface wipes clean quickly with standard cleaning products
- Suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor use
- Lightweight build makes reconfiguring a dining room practical during service
- Complies with BS EN16139, the relevant standard for non-domestic seating strength and durability
There are no installation requirements beyond the chairs themselves. The pack format suits operators furnishing a room from scratch or replacing worn stock in stages. For very high-turnover venues — late-night bars or large event spaces where seating takes heavy daily punishment — it is worth considering whether a heavier-framed alternative might offer greater longevity.
The Soho suits cafés, bistros, pubs, hotel dining rooms, and casual restaurant settings where a classic bentwood aesthetic is wanted without the upkeep of a timber chair. If you are fitting out a specific room and are uncertain about quantities or mix of seating styles, the team is happy to talk through what tends to work well in practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes, the polypropylene construction makes them suitable for covered outdoor areas such as terraces, beer gardens, and forecourts. Polypropylene does not absorb moisture or warp in damp conditions, though prolonged direct exposure to UV over several seasons may gradually affect the finish, so some shelter from the elements is advisable.
- The Soho is designed to stack, which is practical at the end of service or when a room needs to be cleared. Bolero does not specify a maximum stack height in the product data, so we would recommend keeping stacks to a manageable height for safe handling by staff — typically around eight to ten chairs is a sensible working limit in most operations.
- Traditional bentwood chairs have an appealing warmth but can loosen at the joints over time with heavy daily use, and they require more careful cleaning to avoid moisture ingress. Polypropylene resin does not have jointed construction in the same way, making it more resistant to the kind of racking stress that occurs when diners lean or tip the chair. For venues prioritising low maintenance alongside the bentwood aesthetic, the resin version is a practical alternative.
