Product Description
The Manhattan is a bar-height 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 espresso fabric. It is proportioned to work alongside poseur tables and bar-height drinking shelves, making it a practical choice for pub bars, hotel lobbies, café counters, and similar front-of-house settings.
Built to contract furniture standard, the rubber wood construction is intended to withstand the repetitive daily use that commercial environments place on seating — guests sitting down and standing up throughout service, chairs being moved across floors, and the general wear that comes with a busy venue. The curved back with vertical slats provides a degree of lumbar support, which is a practical consideration in settings where guests may be seated for extended periods.
From an operational standpoint, the chair suits venues that want a clean, traditional aesthetic without the maintenance demands of more elaborate upholstery or metal fabrication:
- Solid rubber wood frame resists the racking and wobble common in lighter-duty chairs
- Padded seat adds comfort for guests staying through multiple rounds
- Neutral espresso and soft oak tones suit a range of interior schemes
- Contract-rated construction supports consistent use across multiple sittings per day
- Bar height suits standard poseur tables and counter-height drinking shelves
It is worth considering that at 10kg per chair, stacking or storage between sittings will require some thought, particularly in venues with limited back-of-house space. The chair is not stackable by design, so floor storage space per unit is the primary practical constraint.
This chair is well suited to bars, gastropubs, hotel bars, and café counters where a traditional timber aesthetic is appropriate and seating is in near-constant use. Venues requiring a more contemporary frame finish or different upholstery colour may want to explore other options in the range before committing.
If you are fitting out a larger number of seats or need guidance on whether this chair works with a specific table height, we are happy to help you work through the details before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The Manhattan is constructed from rubber wood and upholstered fabric, both of which are intended for indoor use. Exposure to moisture or direct weather would damage the finish and upholstery over time, so it is not recommended for outdoor settings without adequate shelter and protection.
- The chair is designed to work alongside bar-height or poseur-height tables, which typically sit at around 1050–1100mm. It is worth checking the seat height against your specific table height before ordering, particularly if you are mixing chairs from different suppliers.
- At 10kg per unit, the Manhattan is a solid chair that stays put on the floor during service, which is generally an advantage in a busy bar environment. It is not designed for stacking, so venues that need to clear and store seating between sessions should account for the floor space each chair occupies when not in use.
