HCF Contract Furniture has been manufacturing booth seating and banquettes since 1990, supplying projects across the UK for restaurants, cafés, bars, hotels, schools, colleges and offices.
We work directly with owners, interior designers and fit-out contractors, providing made-to-measure seating that stands up to heavy commercial use and repeat refurbishments.
The Retro range is ideal for American-style diners, burger restaurants, milkshake bars, bowling alleys and venues that want a playful, nostalgic feel. Strong colours and fluted or V-back details make a strong visual statement while still being comfortable and practical for everyday service.
By combining straight runs, corners, back-to-back units and island booths, you can create layouts that maximise covers while still feeling comfortable and inviting.
Common applications include:
Booths can be arranged in many different ways to suit your floor plan:
If you’re unsure which configuration will work best, send us a sketch or drawing. We’ll suggest a combination of straight runs, corner booths and round booth seating to make the most of your space.
If you’re creating a full American diner interior, we can supply everything to match your retro booth seating. Our range of retro restaurant chairs and bar stools includes classic ribbed and fan-back styles, ideal alongside fluted booths in bold red, cream or teal upholstery.
To finish the scheme, pair your booths with retro ribbed chrome-edge table tops and polished chrome table bases for an authentic 1950s look. These pieces are all Crib 5 contract and designed for heavy commercial use in busy diners, burger restaurants and milkshake bars.
All HCF booth seating is engineered for demanding trade environments. Frames are built from quality timber and board materials, designed to withstand years of daily use in restaurants, cafés, bars and canteens.

Yes. All of our booth and banquette seating is made to measure. You can specify exact lengths, back heights, corner details and plinth styles. If you send a simple drawing or dimensioned plan, we’ll work out a layout of restaurant booth seating that makes best use of your space.
We offer standard back heights as well as high back booth seating for added privacy and acoustic comfort. Back heights can usually be adjusted to suit your design or to align with existing features such as windowsills and wall panelling.
Our booth seating is delivered fully assembled, each unit can be carried into the building and positioned on site. At order stage we’ll ask whether you’d like unit connectors fitted; these provide extra security by locking adjoining units together, and simply slot into place when the booths are pushed together. Clear fitting instructions are provided.
If you prefer, we can also offer a complete supply-and-install service, bringing the seating into position, fixing it in place where required and removing any leftover packaging from site.
Our booth seating is designed for heavy commercial use. Frames are robust, foams are contract grade and upholstery is chosen for durability and cleanability. Most vinyl and faux leather options can be wiped down with mild cleaning products, making them ideal for busy hospitality and education environments.
