Transform the look of your backyard with an outdoor picnic table from Ace Hardware. Available in metal or plastic designs, our picnic tables provide a low-maintenance dining option for many that are perfect for any backyard. Find the picnic table suitable for your needs, then shop a variety of other outdoor patio furniture essentials for your backyard.

Outdoor Picnic Tables for Your Home

Picnic tables are a great way to add some outdoor seating to your backyard or patio. They're perfect for hosting picnics or large dinners outside and can accommodate many people comfortably to encourage long conversations for a feel-good time. Combined with other outdoor essentials like patio umbrellas, coolers and cooler accessories to conveniently store cold drinks, your picnic table can become the focal point of your BBQs, al fresco family dinners and outdoor game nights.

What is a Standard Picnic Table?

Picnic tables come in different shapes and sizes, so you'll want to find one that best suits the needs of your family and space. The size of the table will depend on how many people you plan on sitting around it at once. For example, 72-inch picnic tables allow six adults to gather comfortably. Need extra space? Consider folding chairs at either end to allow even more mingling and accommodate additional guests.

Additionally, consider how much room you have in your backyard for this purchase. A smaller table or a folding picnic table can be tucked away more easily than a bigger, non-folding option if there's limited space available.

Plastic vs Wooden Picnic Tables

Just as important as the size, the material which your outdoor picnic table is made with will help you make a decision. Typically, you will be choosing between wooden and plastic picnic tables.

  • Wood Picnic Table: Wooden picnic tables are a popular choice. A softwood picnic table is inexpensive but is less resistant to the elements and food spills. A hardwood picnic table is more durable, but more expensive. Wood picnic tables of any type will require regular staining or revarnishing.
  • Plastic Picnic Table: Some outdoor picnic tables often feature a metal frame and plastic seating and tabletops. Despite their metal frames, these are often lighter in weight than wooden picnic tables and are easier to transport and maintain.

Having outside seating cushions readily available in a shed or patio storage box will allow you to make your picnics even more comfortable.

Outdoor Picnic Table Features

Depending on the material you use, your picnic table can come with many features that can enhance your outdoor hangouts.

For example, plastic picnic tables:

  • Are easy to store and help you save space in your backyard, especially with folding designs.
  • Have UV protection for lasting durability when exposed to the sun.
  • Can be easily cleaned and maintained.
  • Splint-free material to make transporting your table worry-free.

Wood picnic tables are much sturdier and tend to have a wider footprint for increased stability and strength. They are a more permanent addition to your backyard, as they cannot be easily moved, but they offer a classic look that can be the focal point of any backyard décor all year long.
