Octagonal Picnic Table Options
Attached or Separate Benches
Octagonal Picnic Tables are available with attached or separate benches. Attached benches are built into the table, while separate benches are four free-standing benches.
Standard or Seamless Tabletop
Our seamless tabletop option is ideal for use in an covered patio or indoors. It can be taken outdoors for a meal or party but isn't designed for outdoor living. The seamless construction creates a beautiful unbroken tabletop surface that is just as strong as our standard tabletop. But outdoor tabletop boards need "breathing" room to expand and contract to the constant changes in moisture and temperature. The standard tabletop boards are separated by 1/16-inch to allow for this movement.
Parquet Tabletop

You can order any Picnic or Patio table with a Parquet Tabletop. If you select the Parquet design, any benches for the set will be matching parquet benchtops by default. If you prefer benches in a different design, just mention it in the comment section at checkout. The parquet pieces will be naturally varied in color as shown at right. When left outdoors the color will slowly even out. The Parquet Tabletop choice is available during the checkout process at no additional charge.
Umbrella Hole
Want to enjoy an umbrella with your table? We do not sell umbrellas, but we will drill a two-inch umbrella hole for you at no charge. Simply select this option at check-out. A plug is included with the umbrella hole option– see images at right.
Octagonal Picnic Table Dimensions
Dimensions Common to All Octagonal Picnic Tables
Boards are fully two inches thick. The legs are made using full dimension two-by-six-inch thick timbers. Tables with attached benches use timbers under the table to hold the benches. If you plan to use an umbrella stand, keep in mind these timbers limit umbrella stand height to 12.5" or less.
