Why do I need an outdoor side table?

An outdoor side table sits beside your chairs, loungers or sofa and gives you a handy surface for drinks, snacks, books or your phone. It turns a simple seating area into a proper outdoor lounge, so you’re not balancing cups on the ground or armrests. Poynters’ outdoor side tables also work as design accents, helping your space feel more finished and inviting.

What styles and shapes do outdoor side tables come in at Poynters?

Poynters offers outdoor side tables in a range of shapes and styles, including round, square, rectangular and nesting sets. You’ll see teak side tables for a warm, natural feel, sleek aluminium designs, ceramic or glass tops for a modern look, and woven wicker or rope details. Some pieces can double as small stools or ottomans, so you can choose a side table that either matches or contrasts your existing furniture.

Are the side tables durable enough to be left outdoors?

Yes. Poynters’ outdoor side tables are built from weather-resistant materials such as teak, powder-coated aluminium, synthetic wicker and rope, or sturdy composites mixed with concrete. These concrete side tables/ stools also double as seating if required.. They’re designed to handle rain, sun and everyday use without rotting or rusting. Many have solid, stable bases so they stay put in normal winds. With occasional cleaning, you can confidently leave these side tables outside year-round.

Do outdoor side tables require assembly?

Most outdoor side tables from Poynters need little or no assembly. Many arrive fully made; others may only require simple steps such as attaching legs to the top with a few screws or bolts. Any tools and instructions needed are supplied. Because side tables are compact and uncomplicated, you can usually unpack and have them in place in just a few minutes.

Can side tables be used as stools for extra seating if needed?

Some outdoor side tables can double as extra seating, but it depends on the design. Solid cube-style, drum-shaped or timber side tables often cope well with occasional use as a stool. Glass-topped or very lightweight metal side tables are not intended for sitting. If you want a true table–stool hybrid, look for pieces described as both like Messina stool, or Azzano cube, or our lightweight concrete items like Crystal or round drums or cubes, or ask Poynters for options that are specifically built to handle seating loads.

How do I coordinate side tables with my existing outdoor furniture?

You can match outdoor side tables to your furniture by material, colour or shape. For example, pair teak lounges with a teak-topped side table, or match a white aluminium sofa frame with a white aluminium side table. Alternatively, use contrast, such as a light ceramic-top table beside dark wicker chairs. Repeating a finish or wood tone somewhere in your setting helps everything feel cohesive, while still letting the side table act as a stylish accent.
