If you have a small dining room
what shape table do you have? Our dining room is only 8' x 8.5'. Right now we have an oval shaped table with chairs for 6, I'd like to fit 8 but a bigger table just won't fit.
Are there nice looking octagonal tables?

Re: If you have a small dining room
We have a long table to make the room seem larger. We keep the leaf out, though.

Re: If you have a small dining room
Our dining room is 13x10. The table we got, we ended up getting it narrower than normal (42" wide instead of 48" wide) and that helped a lot. It is 108" long and its rectangular. It currently has 6 side chairs and 2 arm chairs.

Re: If you have a small dining room
I haven't seen octogonal, but I have seen large square tables which seat 2 people on each side... I just can't recall WHERE

Re: If you have a small dining room
Ours is small also - I picked a rectangular table with a leaf. It gets crowded at holidays but we make it work.
This is a picture from last year when it first arrived.

Re: If you have a small dining room
I have an octagonal table so I can tell you they definitely make them. My dining room is tiny so this is very helpful. I'm not sure what company it is because someone gave us the table.
Keep looking, they're out there. Good Luck!

Thanks everyone! It's so hard dealing with such a small space.

Re: If you have a small dining room
we have a small dining room and we ordered (but haven't received) our DR set in 42" Boat shaped table (42" in middle, thinner on the ends). We bought 8 chairs and two leaves. I believe it opens up to 102" total. We should be able to fit 10-12 people with extra chairs.
Tiffany Furniture on Rt. 110 sells custom made tables. You can order them in different sizes. I believe they start at 38" and go up to 52". You can buy whichever chairs you want with whichever table you want.
GL!
