What Is a Coffee Table?
A coffee table sits in front of a sofa or seating area. It holds drinks, books, and everyday items at arm's reach.
Some people also call this a cocktail table, especially for lower, more decorative styles.
Types of Coffee Tables
Round Coffee Tables
A round coffee table softens a room and works well in tighter layouts without sharp corners.
Rectangular Coffee Tables
A rectangular coffee table is the most common shape. It fits well in front of standard sofas and sectionals.
Oval Coffee Tables
An oval coffee table blends the softness of round with the length of rectangular styles.
Lift Top Coffee Tables
A lift top coffee table raises up to become a workspace or dining surface, then lowers back down.
Storage Coffee Tables
A storage coffee table includes drawers or shelves to hold remotes, blankets, or books.
How to Choose the Right Coffee Table
Size
Match the table length to your sofa. A small space coffee table works well in apartments or tight living rooms.
Material
Choose from wood coffee table finishes for a warm look, or glass top coffee table styles for a lighter, modern feel.
Style
A modern coffee table has clean lines and simple shapes. A farmhouse coffee table uses rustic wood tones and detailing.
Configuration
A lift top coffee table or storage coffee table adds function beyond just a surface to set things on.

Coffee Table FAQs
What's the difference between a coffee table and a cocktail table?
They're mostly the same thing. "Cocktail table" is an older, more decorative term for the same type of low table.
How do I choose the right coffee table size?
Leave about 14-18 inches between the table and your sofa, and match the table length to roughly two-thirds of your sofa's length.
Are any of these coffee tables outdoor-safe?
Yes. A few styles, like the Heritage Deep Seating Coffee Table and Patio Coffee Table, are built from weather-resistant poly for outdoor use.
What's a lift top coffee table used for?
It raises up to give you a flat surface for working, eating, or setting a laptop, then lowers back down for normal use.
