Outdoor Coffee Tables & Side Tables for Patio Living
Outer’s outdoor coffee tables and side tables are designed to complete patios, decks, poolside seating areas, and backyard lounge spaces. This collection includes outdoor coffee tables, side tables, gathering tables, and coffee-and-side-table pairings that add useful surfaces beside sofas, sectionals, lounge chairs, and chaise lounges.
Choose a coffee table to anchor the center of a seating area, a side table for drinks or books beside a chair, or a gathering table when you want a taller surface that works between casual dining and lounge seating. For shoppers comparing outdoor coffee table sets, pairing a coffee table with matching side tables can create a more finished and functional outdoor room.
The collection is crafted in FSC® certified teak, aluminum, OuterStone®, and concrete. Teak adds natural warmth, aluminum brings a clean modern profile, OuterStone® offers a durable sintered stone surface, and concrete creates a substantial architectural feel. To complete the layout, pair these tables with aluminum outdoor sofas, wicker outdoor sofas, or outdoor chaise lounges.
What’s the difference between a coffee table, side table, and gathering table?
A coffee table is best for anchoring a seating area, while a side table adds a smaller, more flexible surface beside a chair, sofa, or chaise. A gathering table sits between the two in both function and height. Outer’s gathering tables are designed to bridge the gap between a coffee table and a dining table, standing 25 to 26 inches tall to pair more naturally with sofa seating and casual dining.
Which material is right for me: teak, aluminum, OuterStone®, or concrete?
Teak is a strong fit if you want natural warmth and FSC® certified wood that ages beautifully over time. Aluminum is a durable, weather-resistant option with a lighter, more modern look. OuterStone® offers a sintered stone surface designed for easy care, with strong resistance to scratches and a scorch-resistant finish. Concrete provides a more substantial look and is made from glass fiber reinforced concrete with a weather-proof sealant.
Can these outdoor tables stay outside year-round?
They are designed for outdoor use. Concrete side tables can be left outside all year. Aluminum is built to be weather-resistant and will not rust, decay, or loosen over time. Teak is also naturally durable outdoors and will gradually develop a silver-gray patina.
How do I clean Outer coffee and side tables?
Care is straightforward but material-specific. Aluminum can be rinsed with a hose and cleaned with mild detergent and warm water. OuterStone® can be wiped with a damp cloth for everyday care or cleaned with warm, soapy water for a deeper refresh. Concrete can be cleaned with equal parts detergent and water using a soft cloth, while teak can be maintained with mild detergent, water, and a bristled brush.
Can I use side tables instead of a coffee table?
Yes. A side table can work well beside a sofa, between two chairs, or at the end of a sectional when you want more flexible surface space. A few Concrete Side Tables can also be grouped together in front of a seating arrangement to serve as a coffee table.
