Why this dining chair earns its place
The Bolero Manhattan brings a bit of rustic warmth to what is, underneath, a properly commercial chair. The cross-back design and black resin finish give it the look of a café classic — the kind of chair that works in a bistro, a tea room or a busy restaurant dining room without needing dressing up — while the build stays entirely practical: durable resin construction, a 500mm seat depth, and a gross weight of 4.8kg that keeps it light enough to shift by hand but solid enough not to feel cheap underfoot.
It's rated for indoor and outdoor use, so the same chair can furnish an inside dining room and spill out onto a terrace or courtyard as covers demand — genuinely useful for venues that flex their floor plan through the week. The resin finish is stain-resistant, so spilt drinks and greasy hands wipe away at the end of service rather than needing a proper scrub, and it stacks to save space when the room needs clearing for cleaning or a different layout.
Bolero built the Manhattan to BS EN16139, the commercial seating standard covering strength, durability and safety — so it isn't just styled for hospitality use, it's tested for it. Arriving fully assembled and sold in packs of four, it's a fast way to fit out a dining room with seating that looks considered and holds up to daily commercial use.
