What size is best for a round game table?

The best size for a round game table is 36” if you plan on using the table for board and card games. It’s compact, offers easy reach between players, and doesn’t take up a lot of space, thus perfect for smaller game rooms.

You may want to go for something a bit more spacious such as a 42” to 48” table if you don’t want your games to be too cramped.

Although a 60” round table may seem fitting in a large game room, it isn’t the most practical option since it’s too wide to reach across. Nonetheless, game tables of this size can seat multiple players.

How many chairs fit in a round table?

The number of chairs that fit with a round table range from four to ten, depending upon the table’s diameter, chair widths, and the preferred chair spacing. As a rule, round tables are best suited for smaller groups. Whether you enjoy a formal dining area or a round game table and chairs for family game nights, follow the following methods for determining the amount of seating to add.

Popular round table sizes are usually between 36”-72” and require a different number of chairs for a comfortable fit. As the table diameter increases by 12,” adding two more chairs. So, if you start with a 36” table with two chairs, then switch to a 48” one, you can add two more chairs for a total of four.

Chair spacing falls into two categories: formal dining and family dining. For a more formal experience, you want to provide 30” of chair spacing to keep guests comfortable and provide adequate elbow room. For less-formal, cozier seating, family dining requires only 24” of chair spacing. This is another way of calculating the number of chairs for your round table.

When determining how many chairs will fit, also include the width of your chairs. A standard size chair is 19” in width.

What features should I look for in a round game table and chairs set?

The features to look for in a round game table and chairs set on depends on the type of games you'll play.

A sturdy column base prevents the table from toppling over with rubberized floor casters to keep the table from moving during play. A removable tabletop cover for poker or chess fans makes it easy to transition between gameplay and regular entertaining on the same table.

Choose seating options that provide ample back and neck support. Upholstered chairs with medium-soft cushioning are comfortable and allow your guests to sit and play for hours at a time.
