I need a larger table in my kitchen.

I need a table that seats a minimum of 7 people in my kitchen (not one that folds up but every day can feed 7 people).
I have googled the crap out of round tables and have not found one.  What would you put here?  I don't really have a budget but let's say with chairs, somewhere in the neighborhood of $1000 of less.  Less would be better

Does it necessarily have to be round? You could do a rectangular table with 2 end chairs and a bench on either side. I'd think you could put 3 people on a bench (especially if they're kids or have small butts, lol), so that would seat 8.

Id build in a bench into that nook and do a rectangle table.

Or an oval?

it does not have to be round it just needs to fit.

The 7 people would be two adults and 4 kids all under 10 so I am assuming little butts

would something like this work?  We have the seats from two other smaller tables I'm just not sure if it would look OK?

Yeah, it's probably impossible to get 7 people around a round table that doesn't look like a Congressional Round Table.

My mom had an oval table with a bench on one side and chairs on the other. It sat 7 regularly no probably.

If you get a back on the bench..it works great for adults too. We still fight over who gets to sit there.

Otherwise, rectangle all the way. That's a hug table space so pretty much anything you like will fit.

I have yet to see a table that fits 7 so that is why I said table of 8

I did have to go and re-count them in my head though before a responded to you because we're in the process of adopting and were presented with a family of 4 kids, plus our 1 biological kid, my husband and I is 7.  I better get used to this so I don't lose one

This is slightly more ($1,300) but seats 8 and looks like it would fit. Also has a leaf so you can make it bigger if needed. And if you shop with ebates you get 2.5% back, and sign up with a new email you can save 10%.

Have you checked Ikea? They have a few tables that fit 3 chairs on each side. You can get 2 more to set at the heads of the table and have room for 8.

I would probably build in a bench and then look for an oblong shaped table or a large round table.
