Extra seating can be easily stored underneath the typical dining table height. Multipurpose furnishings are crucial to small spaces. Knee and toe space complying with 306 shall be provided under the counter.

If such a counter is more than 34 inches from the floor and constructing an entirely new counter would be unreasonably expensive the facility must add a lowered food service counter section with a height of no more than 34 inches from the floor and at least 60 inches in length. Food service items are often placed toward the back of a table or counter or on risers or racks above the counter surface in order to leave space for people to set their trays plates or beverage containers. Counters in food service lines shall comply with 904 5. Unfortunately this may make items more difficult to reach.

Counter tables can also be used to spread out a buffet and allow guests to meander over to fill up their own plates. Where food or drink is served at counters exceeding 34 inches in height for consumption by customers seated or standing at the counter a portion of the main counter that is 60 inches in length minimum shall be provided in compliance with cbc section 11b 226 3. Having a kitchen counter height table which can also double as a food prep area has many advantages.
