Laying out a Dining Room

 Dining room layouts will vary depending on the needs of each household. Remember to leave a walk space behind each chair when a person is seated in the chair. Dining Layouts Dimensions & Drawings | Dimensions.com

It is nice to have a side table for food or beverages if people are doing self-service, so they will not be entering the kitchen area. Some people have a lovely cabinet for display service pieces.

Separate dining rooms don’t seem to exist in homes with open floor plans. Kitchen cabinets hold the display pieces, and the kitchen island may serve as the sideboard.

I like the idea of having a “Butler’s Pantry” near the dining table in an open floor plan. A bar sink, a counter, an under-the-counter small fridge, cabinet space for glasses and extra dessert plates, tablecloths, and serving dishes or platters. 45 Functional Butler's Pantries With Endless Charm

Our small retirement home doesn’t have a dining room, although I’m setting up the second bedroom as an occasional dining space. What would have been our dining room is now our computer room.

The dining room’s layout is pretty much up to the homeowner.
