Solve storage and serving problems with sideboards and buffet tables

Find the perfect accent table to complement your dining room furniture and wooden floors or paneling with a wide selection of quality, affordable buffet cabinets and sideboards that offer stylish storage solutions. From mid-century modern to rustic wood designs, these pieces will stand out even before they’re used as buffet servers or gathering spots for drinks. They also provide smart, out-of-the-way storage for extra serveware, napkins, and bar items in the dining room, living room, or wherever you like to entertain guests.

What are the differences between sideboards and buffets?

Generally speaking, buffet tables tend to have longer legs than sideboards, which sit lower to the ground. Buffet tables are primarily used to hold dinnerware and essentials for entertaining during big dinners, while sideboards are versatile pieces used throughout the house and office to store everything from projectors and party supplies to blankets and keepsakes. While buffet tables offer an elegant platform for the holiday roast, sideboards are more than just extra seating when the projector starts rolling—they also serve as an elegant focal point for serving lunch or drinks at a holiday party.

Buffet tables

Open stunning wooden doors to tucked-away wine racks, dinnerware and cutlery while using the top to hold elegant serving dishes. Stack the plates on top as well, hit your glass with a fork, thank everyone for coming and kindly ask them to help themselves before heading into the kitchen with your drink to let off a sigh as your buffet table does the rest.

Sideboards

Sideboard cabinets can be as nonchalant as a charming set of drawers and cabinets that sit close to the floor or as striking as a display with elegant glass fronts. They’re great for keeping your bar collection out of sight until the time is right or for putting crystal decanters and glassware where the light can bounce off them.

Storage combinations

Combine open and closed storage space with the added versatility of different storage types in one unit. For instance, tuck away an electric carving knife, serveware, booster seats, kids’ toys, and napkins in cabinets or drawers below, while family portraits and plants adorn shelves that reach the ceiling above. Alternatively, opt for a hidden cabinet on the left to store your liquor and wine collection, while the adjoining cabinet showcases your elegant glassware behind sleek glass.
