Types of bistro and balcony sets

At Boender Outdoor you'll find different types of compact garden sets:

  • Classic bistro set: a round or square table with two chairs — that typical terrace feel
  • Balcony set: extra compact design for balconies, often with a folding table or hanging table
  • Café set: coated steel frame in classic style, reminiscent of Parisian terraces
  • Modern bistro set: aluminium frame with rope or textilene seating, sleek design

Bistro set by material

  • Aluminium: lightweight, rust-free and ideal for balconies because of the low weight. Most popular choice.
  • Wicker: atmospheric and warm, perfect for a bohemian or rustic look. Synthetic wicker is weather-resistant.
  • Rope: luxurious feel on a small surface. Rope chairs are comfortable even without cushions.
  • Steel: classic and stylish, especially in black or white coating for a café look.

Tips for furnishing a small balcony

With the right furniture and accessories, you can turn any balcony into a pleasant outdoor space:

  • Choose a folding bistro set that you can easily store away when you need the space
  • Add a compact balcony parasol for shade on sunny days
  • Use vertical planters and hanging plants to add greenery without losing floor space
  • Choose white or light-coloured furniture to make the balcony appear larger
  • Pay attention to the maximum weight capacity of your balcony when choosing furniture

Bistro set or larger garden set?

Can't decide between a bistro set and a larger garden set? A bistro set is ideal for 2 people and small spaces. Do you have more space and regularly entertain guests? Then check out our 4-person or 6-person garden sets. For an extra cosy outdoor dining area, a garden set with a round table is also a nice option.

Frequently asked questions

What is a bistro set?

A bistro set is a compact garden set consisting of a small table (usually round or square, diameter 60-80 cm) and two chairs. It's designed for small outdoor spaces such as balconies, city gardens and small terraces.

Will a bistro set fit on any balcony?

Most bistro sets fit on balconies from approximately 1.5 x 1.5 metres. Measure your balcony and check the dimensions of the set. Folding models are the most space-saving.

Which material is best for a balcony set?

Aluminium is the best choice for balconies: it's lightweight (important for the weight capacity of your balcony), rust-free and low-maintenance. Steel bistro sets are heavier but more classic in appearance.

Can I use a bistro set for more than 2 people?

A standard bistro table comfortably seats 2 people. For 3-4 people, it's better to choose a slightly larger round table or a square table of about 80x80 cm.

Are bistro sets weather-resistant?

Yes, quality bistro sets made of aluminium, wicker or rope are fully weather-resistant. They can stay outside all season. In winter, a protective cover is recommended.

Is a folding bistro set sturdy enough?

Yes, good folding bistro sets have a sturdy hinge mechanism and are stable when unfolded. When purchasing, check the maximum load capacity and the quality of the folding lock.

Which colour bistro set suits my balcony?

For small balconies, light colours such as white or beige are recommended — these make the space appear larger. Anthracite and black give a sleek, modern appearance but absorb more heat in the sun.

How do I maintain a bistro set?

Clean the set regularly with lukewarm water and a soft cloth. For wrought iron or steel: check for rust spots and touch up with matching paint. Aluminium and wicker: simple rinsing is sufficient.
