Five chairs to boost your venue’s Instagram appeal
Love it or loathe it, it’s impossible to ignore the effect that Instagram has had on the hospitality industry.
In 2017 the Independent reported on market research commissioned by a nationwide pizza chain. Amazingly, the survey found that 18-35 year-olds spend the equivalent of five days a year browsing food images on Instagram.
And not only that. Some 30% of those questioned said they would choose not to visit a restaurant if they weren’t impressed by its Instagram presence.
This might sound brutal but it’s the present reality. Many people now actively search for places to eat and drink using Trip Advisor and Google Maps. And they often make choices on where to go based on the images and reviews that pop up.
The importance of ‘Instagrammability’
It used to be that word of mouth was the best publicity a pub, club, cafe or restaurant could hope for. Today, not only does your food have to taste great – it has to look fabulous too. We’ve all become used to seeing people taking photos to share on social media.
And it’s not just the food styling that makes a venue ‘Instagrammable’. The interior décor, lighting, and furniture all have parts to play in creating an ambience that is truly ‘Instagram-worthy’.

We love our Activ Cafe Chair – and we know that many cafe owners do too. Its mid-century retro style is timeless and brightens up any indoor eatery. And it’s not all about good looks. It’s also hardwearing and easy to keep clean and store.
With 15 colours to choose from you’re sure to find the one that best suits your design. Colours include: black, white, blue, red, green, yellow, brown, burgundy, grey, olive, orange, pink, purple, sand and slate. Why not mix and match for a rainbow of colour?
The Activ Bar Stool is also available in the same range of colours and looks eye-catching in a row or at poseur tables.
- Vivid Puzzle Frame Chair
The Vivid Side Chair is another great looking chair that harks back to the classic designs of the 1960s. In fact, its elegant puzzle frame was influenced by the the famous Charles Eames DSR chair.
The Vivid Side Chair should add a ‘wow’ factor to any contemporary-styled cafe, bistro and restaurant. The seat is made from durable polypropylene and comes in grey, white, pastel blue and pastel green.
Three other complementary Vivid chairs are also available: the Vivid Side Chair Skid Frame, Vivid Side Chairs, and Vivid High Stool.
- Hoxton Chairs
With its unusual contemporary seat design and wide choice of colours and frames, the Hoxton range of contract seating is hard to beat. These chairs do not fade into the background – they demand to be seen.
The seat comprises a moulded polypropylene shell featuring an unusual indented seat and seat back profile. And you have up to nine colours to choose from – black, white, red, blue, green, turquoise, yellow, purple, and grey.
Variations in the Hoxton range include:
– The Hoxton Chair Frame K – with four turned beech legs and a black steel frame.
– The Hoxton Eiffel Chair – with a black powder-coated metal frame.
– The Hoxton Chrome Eiffel – with a chrome rather than black frame.
– The Hoxton Side Chair – with chrome plated steel legs.

- Paris Industrial Cafe Chairs
And from the futuristic to the retro. Our Paris Industrial Cafe Chairs have enduring appeal thanks to their great design which looks vintage but is also modern.
Manufactured from contract quality steel, the Paris Chair comes in a choice of three colours: a grey powder-coated finish, a darker gun metal grey, and a vintage copper finish.
