Round Trays For Coffee Tables

Jump To Our Picks

While we want to have enough room for drinks and snacks on your coffee table, we also want them to look decorated like a grownup lives here. And the secret to that is by using a tray to corral and display your accessories. Not only does a tray hold your vignettes in place, but they are also easy to lift off the coffee table entirely when you want to spread out your dinner and watch Netflix. We’ve curated these eight round trays that are both pretty and practical.

Country Style Round Coffee Table Tray

Country Style Round Coffee Table Tray

Kelly Clarkson Home

Available in white, pale brown or pale gray, this round tray for coffee tables is crafted from solid and manufactured wood. The circular tray is approximately 15” round with a ¼” high lip. The bun feet have cushion pads to prevent scratching and sliding.

$75.99 $93.99

Designer Advice:

We love the idea of creating contrast with our decorative items. This pale wood round coffee table tray would show up beautifully against a darker wood, fabric or leather coffee table. Its petite bun feet lift it off the surface of the table, adding some lift to items placed on it. Two contrasting black handles make it easy to move and are perfect for either corralling items or serving drinks and snacks.

Round Trays For Coffee Tables

Buying Guide

Yes, you can and should put a square tray on a round coffee table. In fact, this is the wisest choice to create an aesthetically pleasing and balanced effect, as round trays for coffee tables wouldn’t work well when placed above a surface of the same shape. That’s why the latter is better suited for square or rectangular shapes.

The way you decorate your coffee table tray tells a story, so we recommend you use conversation pieces. For visual interest, consider varying heights, textures, and colors, starting with a tall object like a decorative vase or a transparent vase filled with flowers.

Plants and garden clippings work like magic if you're into bohemian themes. If you want to bring a bit of seaside appeal to your living room, decorate your round tables for coffee tables with seas shells, a clear glass vase filled with sea sand and pebbles, and add some scented tea light candles to finish off that peaceful and beach like theme.

Round trays for coffee tables have practical purposes, but you don’t need to style them with too much of a utilitarian angle. Decor that suggests their original purposes may complement them well, such as a beautiful mug and some coasters.

After that, we’d branch out from the kitchen angle with a book (or small stack of books) and either a candle or succulent to add some greenery or some light to your coffee table.
