How Many People Can Sit at an 8-Foot Table?
Last Updated Apr 7, 2020 2:05:49 PM ET
Eight to 10 people can sit at an 8-foot table, depending on whether seats are placed at the ends of the table. This assumes a table that is 30 inches deep. If the table is only 18 inches deep, it seats only four people.
Eight to 10 people can also be seated around a 60-inch or 72-inch round table, respectively. Eight people can also be seated around a 48-inch round table or at a 6-foot rectangular table if chairs are placed at the ends of the table. These spacings allow about 6 to 8 inches between chairs. When rectangular tables are placed end to end, two extra people can be squeezed in at the join between the tables.
