UK bar stool specialists

Bar stools, kitchen stools and breakfast bar stools — built for UK homes.

Bar stools for every kitchen

Our bar stools UK range covers everything from bar stools with backs and armed bar stools to swivel bar stools and height-adjustable gas-lift stools. Standard 75–80 cm bar height for taller home bars, or 65 cm counter height for kitchen islands.

Breakfast bar & kitchen counter stools

UK breakfast bars and kitchen islands are almost always 90 cm tall — our 65 cm kitchen island stools and breakfast bar chairs sit your elbows naturally on the worktop. Pick counter stools with backs for long evenings, or backless designs that tuck cleanly under a tight island.

Wooden, leather & upholstered

Wooden bar stools in oak, walnut and beech for shaker and farmhouse kitchens. Leather bar stools with backs and faux-leather bar stools wipe clean and age beautifully. Padded velvet bar stools add a hospitality feel to home kitchens and snug bars.

Perspex, folding & statement stools

Perspex and acrylic bar stools (ghost / lucite style) visually disappear and keep small kitchens feeling open. Retro and industrial bar stools add character, folding designs store flat when not in use, and our heavy duty bar stools are built to commercial weight ratings for pubs and busy family kitchens.

Bar, poseur & breakfast bar tables

Complete the set with a matching bar table, poseur table or breakfast bar table at 105–110 cm. Bespoke heights and finishes are available through our custom bar tables service.

Free UK delivery, 30-day returns

Every order ships free from our UK warehouse in Manchester, typically arriving in 2–5 working days. If the stool isn't right, you have 30 days to return it for a full refund. Questions on sizing? See our sizing guide, check delivery info, or WhatsApp the team.

Buying guide

Bar stool questions, answered

Standard UK kitchen islands are 90 cm high — pair them with a 65 cm (counter-height) stool. Taller bar-height counters of 105–115 cm need a 75–80 cm (bar-height) stool. Always leave 25–30 cm between the seat top and the underside of the worktop.

A counter stool has a seat height of roughly 60–68 cm and suits kitchen islands and breakfast bars. A bar stool sits higher at 75–82 cm and is designed for taller home bars or pub-height counters.

A standard UK breakfast bar is 90 cm high — the same as a fitted kitchen worktop. Pair it with a 65 cm seat-height counter stool (sometimes called a 'breakfast bar stool'). Pub-height bars at 105–115 cm need a 75–80 cm bar stool instead.

Yes. We ship across mainland UK with free delivery on every order — no minimum spend. Most orders arrive in 2–5 working days from our UK warehouse in Manchester. Highlands, Islands and Northern Ireland may carry a small surcharge, quoted before we process the order.

Yes — we stock bar stools with backs, armed bar stools with arm rests, swivel stools, height-adjustable gas-lift stools and stools with footrests. Use the filters on the Shop page to combine features (e.g. 'has back' + 'swivel' + 'adjustable').

Perspex (also called acrylic, lucite or 'ghost') bar stools are made from clear moulded plastic. They visually disappear in a room, which keeps small kitchens and breakfast bars feeling open and bright. They're a modern alternative to wooden or upholstered stools.

Yes. Folding bar stools with backs fold flat for storage when not in use — ideal for small kitchens, holiday lets and rooms used for entertaining. We stock folding bar stools at both counter (65 cm) and bar (75 cm) heights.

Swivel bar stools turn 360°, which makes them much easier to get on and off without scraping the floor, and lets you chat across an open-plan kitchen. They're particularly useful around kitchen islands and curved breakfast bars.

Yes. You have 30 days from delivery for a full refund as long as the stool is unused and in its original packaging. WhatsApp or email us first and we'll arrange collection.

Several ranges are commercial-grade and tested for contract use in bars, restaurants and cafés. Look for the 'Contract / Commercial' note on the product page, or message us and we'll recommend a hard-wearing option.
