Drink Tables

Small drink table sizes and height

A small drink table keeps its top just wide enough for a glass, a coaster and a phone, so it fits where a full end table would crowd the seat. No top here is wider than 16 inches, and heights run 15.7 to 24.4 inches.

Match the height to the seat beside it. A table near the arm height of a sofa or chair is easiest to reach, while a lower table suits low lounge chairs.

Drink table for sofa and chair placement

A drink table for sofa seating belongs right at the arm, close enough to set down a glass without leaning or getting up. Its small footprint also fits between two chairs or at the open end of a sectional.

Because the top is small, keep the table out of main walkways, where it could be knocked over.

Marble drink table and metal styles

A marble drink table pairs a stone top with a slim base, and select models here have a marble top, including a pink design and a gold and black design on a metal frame.

Other looks include a black metal frame, a natural rattan table with storage, and glass tops in a silver finish. Marble is porous, so use coasters and wipe spills quickly to avoid stains and etching.

Wood drink table construction

A wood drink table brings grain and warmth to the room, and select models here use solid wood, such as solid pine in a walnut finish or solid wood with MDF panels in a light oak finish.

Most drink tables here are built from MDF panels in finishes such as natural, beige, gray and black. Check each listing's construction line to see which parts are solid wood and which are panels.

Drink side table with storage and care

A drink side table with storage gives coasters, remotes and chargers a place out of sight, and some models here include it, such as silver glass top designs and a natural rattan design.

Care depends on the top. Dust with a soft dry cloth, spray glass cleaner onto the cloth rather than the glass, wipe spills on marble right away, and use coasters on wood and painted finishes to prevent rings.
