Product Description
The Manhattan is a fixed-height bar chair built for commercial hospitality use. The frame is constructed from rubber wood in a soft oak finish, and the padded seat is upholstered in a bison cedar fabric. It is designed to pair with poseur tables, bar-height drinking shelves, or front-of-bar seating arrangements where a standard chair height would be too low.
Built to contract furniture standard, the Manhattan is intended to hold up under the repeated daily use typical of busy bars, pub venues, and casual dining operations. The solid wood construction resists the racking forces that accumulate over time in high-turnover seating — a common failure point in lighter domestic-grade chairs used in commercial settings. The curved back with vertical slats provides reasonable lumbar support for guests sitting for extended periods, which matters in bar environments where dwell time tends to be longer than in quick-service settings.
From an operational standpoint, the key practical considerations are straightforward:
- Solid rubber wood frame offers durability and resistance to everyday commercial wear
- Padded seat improves guest comfort during longer visits
- Curved slatted back provides support without excessive bulk
- Contract-grade construction reduces the likelihood of early structural failure
- Soft oak finish suits a range of bar and hospitality interior schemes
At 1,100mm in height, the Manhattan is sized for use with poseur or bar-height tables. It is worth confirming your table height before ordering, as bar chair and table combinations need to be matched correctly to avoid an uncomfortable seating position for guests. The chair weighs 10kg, which is manageable for daily rearrangement but worth noting if staff regularly reconfigure the floor layout.
The Manhattan suits traditional pub environments, hotel bars, and casual dining spaces where a timber bar chair with a padded seat fits the interior. It is a single, fixed-height model, so venues needing adjustable-height seating or a different frame finish should consider alternative options within the range.
If you would like to discuss seating quantities, finish options, or whether this chair pairs well with the tables you already have, the team is happy to help before you place an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The Manhattan sits at 1,100mm overall height, which is intended for use with poseur or bar-height tables, typically in the 1,000–1,050mm range. It is worth measuring your existing tables before ordering, as a poorly matched chair and table height creates an uncomfortable seating position that guests will notice quickly.
- No. The rubber wood frame and fabric seat upholstery are not rated for outdoor or exposed conditions. The Manhattan is an indoor chair suited to dry bar and dining environments. Prolonged exposure to moisture will affect both the timber and the seat fabric.
- Built to contract furniture standard, the Manhattan is designed for commercial use rather than domestic settings, which means the joinery and frame construction are intended to withstand the repeated loading, shifting, and stacking that comes with busy service. That said, the longevity of any bar chair depends on how it is used and stored — dragging chairs across hard floors or stacking them beyond their rated capacity will shorten the lifespan of any timber frame.
