A little blog where I explore breakfast nook
If the benches are placed together so that they touch, an additional open backed bench can be added to the set for extra seating. Country style corner breakfast nooks also offer a hidden feature: storage space inside the bench seats! Lift the seat of one of the benches, and you will find ample room for dishes, pots and pans and linens that you can't store anywhere else. Naturally, there are other corner breakfast nook designs to choose from if your taste runs to something other than country. Do you like the look and feel of a coffee shop? Then what about looking into an arrangement that consists of a high rounded table and tall stools or chairs for seating? You could recreate the atmosphere of a British pub by positioning high backed benches opposite each other over a trestle table. Or, how about a diner style corner breakfast nook? Think of how your living area will look with a pair of vinyl covered metal benches and a smooth topped table straight from a 1950s soda shop.
