3 Dining Options for Small Condos & Apartments

We’ve all faced many changes since the COVID-19 quarantine began. If there’s one that’s easier to adjust to than others, it is the reduction in rent rates and condo sales that Toronto and the GTA has experienced. 

For many people, it’s an opportunity to get their own place to live, or actually own a place instead of renting.

If the new opportunities are calling you, prepare for a big surprise when you start apartment or condo hunting. Unless you’ve already been looking, you’re going to wonder where whoever designed the space expected you to sit down to eat.

Check Out These Options for Dining in Small Spaces

Yes, you can have a small condo or apartment and some way to comfortably eat in it too. Here are just a few ideas.

1. Transitional 3-Piece Counter Set w/ USB Ports – This one checks off more boxes than you even had. Stylish, compact, quality, multi-functional, and USB ports! And, because the table is counter height, you can actually use it for added kitchen counter space while you make dinner. The two chairs tuck out of the way under the table. You can store dishes, glassware or even books on the shelves which also help the set transition from the eating area to the living room.
   
   
2. Contemporary Walnut Pub-Height Dining Room –  You’ll not easily find a dining set that seats four in a smaller footprint than this one. Place this set on top of a small area rug and you can create a specific dining area in even the smallest units. And you have four more comfortable chairs when everyone stops by.
   
   
3. Transitional Black Counter Set – If the idea of a dining table that doubles as kitchen counter space is an appealing one, this set is for you. The three stools can remain out of the way under the table until they’re needed. In the meantime, the counter -height table can work as an island or peninsula in your kitchen, complete with electrical outlets and USB ports!
