These Are the 8 Best Dining Room Tables at West Elm

Finished with a rich walnut stain and brass detailing at the base, West Elm’s Aubin dining table is a classic and timeless piece you’ll have for years, if not decades, to come. Made from solid acacia wood, the 82-inch length is generous enough to seat up to eight people, with plenty of room for serving plates on the surface as well. The rounded edges give it a not-quite-rectangle, not-quite-oval shape that’s totally unique and well-suited to dining areas that are open to neighboring rooms, providing better flow as you pass through the space.

Want to really make a dramatic statement? Look no further than the Claudelle table, which is realized in dramatically veined marble for a one-of-a-kind look. The oval design (sized to a generous 74 inches long) has a fluted base for an added touch of detail, while the top offers a blank slate for crafting the Insta-worthy tablescape of your dreams. While this dining table is on the pricier side, it’s a worthy investment and the type of standout piece that can drive an entire design scheme.

If you’re someone who likes to host dinner parties or have the family over throughout the holiday season, flexibility is probably at the top of your list when shopping for a dining room table. You’ll need something large enough to fit a crowd, but not so big that it sucks up every available inch in your dining room when you’re not using it. Enter: an extendable dining room table. This West Elm dining table offers the best of both worlds, seamlessly growing from 64 inches to 104 inches long to flex with your ever-evolving needs. Made of FSC-certified wood (sourced from responsibly-managed forests) and available in two finishes, the Branton table effortlessly combines form and functionality into one heirloom-worthy piece. Bonus: We love how the streamlined top and thick pillar legs translate into a timeless, flexible silhouette that complements multiple aesthetics.

More like a lucky vintage find than a mass-produced piece, this table from West Elm’s collaboration with design duo Pierce & Ward bottles the drama of burl wood with the approachable size and shape of a bistro table. Sized at 42 inches and ideal for a petite apartment, this standout pedestal dining table calls to mind the drama and glamour of a bygone era. Even better, this durable piece is made to contract-grade standards, meaning it’s built to last. Rest easy, it’ll hold its own against rowdy dinner parties and enthusiastic homework sessions alike. Want to up the drama? Pair it with velvet dining chairs in a dramatic hue like navy or oxblood for a standout look.

If your aesthetic looks right at home in the Hamptons or California, you’ll love West Elm’s coastal-inspired Yvette dining table. Accented with rattan panels at each side of the base, it’s the ideal way to nod to a seaside vibe without toeing over the line into kitschy. The reclaimed mango wood body also plays into that palette, with a subtle white-wash that pairs beautifully with sun, sand, and surf and turf. Plus, at 84 inches long, you’ll be able to fit plenty of friends at the table next time you choose to host a get-together (complete with Coastal Grandmother-inspired tableware, of course).

If your family tree rivals that of the Royal Family, you’ll need an oversized table to fit everyone comfortably come Sunday dinners, holidays, and birthday parties. West Elm’s Farrow Communal Table offers just that, with three lengths (96, 120, and 144 inches) that take “entertaining a crowd” to a whole new level. The versatility doesn’t end there, though. Not only are there a bevy of lengths to choose from, but there are plenty of finishes too, including dramatic ebony ash, rich walnut, blonde oak, and coastal driftwood—all of which are scratch- and stain-resistant. There’s even an option to add a power bank at the center of the table, if you’re someone who often finds themselves working from the dining room during weekends or after-hours.

Part dining table, part sculptural masterpiece, this graphic dining table is the epitome of a showstopper. Realized in oak wood with a natural oak veneer, it can comfortably seat 8 to 10 people for the most stylish dinner party your friends have ever seen. Our favorite part? The light oak frame has a limed finish, making the graining of the wood even more prominent and adding another layer of visual interest and texture to the piece. Sure, this dining table is on the bulkier side, but West Elm also offers White Glove delivery (which includes delivery to the room, assembly, and disposal of packaging), so all you’ll have to worry about is planning the perfect menu.
