Timber, aluminium or extendable: which outdoor dining table suits your space?
Shop all outdoor dining tables →
Outdoor dining areas in Australia face UV exposure, coastal humidity and summer heat year-round. Timber tops in solid oak or eucalyptus add natural warmth and character to garden and alfresco settings but need occasional care to maintain their finish. Powder-coated aluminium resists rust and corrosion completely, suits coastal and high-UV environments and needs only a wipe-down to stay in condition.
For size, a fixed design suits spaces with a consistent guest count. An extension design suits households where numbers shift between everyday meals and entertaining. Sizing requirements and clearance guidelines are in the tip box below.
Uses and Features
Outdoor Dining Tables: What to Consider Before You Buy
The outdoor dining setting anchors the whole alfresco area. Get the material and size right and it performs through years of Australian weather without becoming a maintenance problem. Get it wrong and you end up with something that warps in the heat, rusts near the coast or seats too few people when guests arrive. Once you choose your piece, the buying checklist below covers every decision before you order.
Sizing Tip
Allow at least 90 cm of clearance on every side of the table so chairs pull back freely without hitting a wall or fence. For an extension table, measure the fully extended footprint and confirm it fits your space before ordering. Exact dimensions are on each product page.

Timber Tables
Timber Outdoor Dining Tables in Solid Oak and Eucalyptus
Solid oak and eucalyptus tops bring natural warmth and material presence to garden and alfresco settings. Sealed for outdoor use, they resist warping and hold their character through Australian seasons. Timber suits coastal and garden spaces where natural materials complement the setting better than aluminium alternatives. See the full range of wooden outdoor dining tables and check care instructions on each product page.
Aluminium Tables
Aluminium Outdoor Dining Tables in White and Charcoal
Powder-coated aluminium resists rust, corrosion and UV fading without needing protective covers or seasonal maintenance. These suit coastal environments, poolside dining areas and modern alfresco spaces where low-maintenance outdoor furniture is the priority. Available in white and charcoal to suit contemporary and coastal palettes. For a clean, light finish that works across the whole outdoor setup, explore white outdoor furniture to match chairs and accessories.
Extension Tables
Outdoor Extension Tables for Flexible Entertaining
An extension design expands with a built-in leaf to seat more guests without needing a second piece. In standard configuration it suits everyday alfresco dining. Extended, it handles a full entertaining setup on a deck, courtyard or garden terrace. The right choice when your guest count shifts regularly between weeknight meals and weekend gatherings.
Round Tables
Round Outdoor Dining Tables for Courtyards and Compact Spaces
A round design suits courtyards, balconies and compact alfresco areas where a rectangular piece takes up too much room. Round shapes remove awkward corners, seat guests equally on all sides and suit smaller entertaining footprints. In solid oak, they bring natural texture and warmth to alfresco areas where a timber finish works best. Browse the full range of round outdoor dining tables to find the right size for your space.
Buying Checklist
Outdoor Dining Table Buying Guide: Material, Size and Configuration
- Material and weather resistance: Choose powder-coated aluminium for coastal areas, poolside setups and low-maintenance outdoor dining. Choose sealed timber for natural character and warmth in garden and deck settings. Both handle Australian outdoor conditions well. Check material care instructions on each product page before ordering.
- Fixed vs extension: A fixed table suits a dedicated alfresco dining area with a consistent guest count. An extension table suits households where numbers change. Extension tables include a built-in leaf so you never need a second table. Measure the fully extended footprint before ordering.
- Shape and footprint: Rectangular tables seat more guests along the length and suit larger decks and garden entertaining areas. Round tables use space more efficiently in compact courtyards and balconies and seat guests equally on all sides. Allow at least 90 cm clearance on every side regardless of shape.
- Seating capacity: Count your regular users plus your typical guest numbers. Match the table size to the number of chairs you plan to seat. Check dimensions and seating capacity on each product page before finalising your order.
- Colour and finish: White and charcoal aluminium suit contemporary and coastal outdoor spaces. Solid oak and eucalyptus timber suit natural and garden-style alfresco areas. Charcoal hides surface dirt better than white in high-traffic outdoor dining areas.
- Delivery and access: Measure gate and access point widths before ordering to confirm the piece reaches your outdoor dining area without issues. Assembly requirements vary by style so check each product page.
