Our commercial metal bar stools come in backless and full-back styles, starting at $20.00. A1 Restaurant Furniture has been an Atlanta-based supplier since 2013, and this category is where we keep our metal bar stools for restaurants, bars and service counters. Prices run from $20.00 to $250.99, so you can fit stools to a tight budget or an upscale bar. Each listing shows the finish, seat material and back style up front, and we're a call away if you want help choosing.
Seats That Keep Up With Daily Turnover
Most of our metal bar stools have vinyl seats, and many have vinyl backs too. Vinyl wipes clean between seatings, so stools still look good at the end of a long service. We also carry padded gray fabric seats, plus wood and veneer seats and backs for a warmer look.
Black is our most common finish. We also stock brown, walnut, cream and gray, along with gunmetal and clear coat frames on our backless stools. A few models mix finishes, such as a black frame with a gray fabric seat, or a black upholstered stool with a gold footrest and gold-tipped legs. If your bar already has a color scheme, one of these metal bar stools will usually sit comfortably alongside it.
How to Choose Restaurant Metal Bar Stools for Your Bar or Counter
Start with your bar or counter, then match the stool to it. A few measurements and a decision on back style will narrow the list quickly.
Backless vs. Full-Back Stools
Backless stools tuck fully under the bar and suit quick turnover and tight spaces. Stools with backs suit guests who stay for a full meal, and a few styles add arms. Choose backless where you want a clean look and fast seating, and full-back where comfort matters more.
Seat Height and Clearance
Measure from the floor to the underside of your bar or counter, then leave about 10 to 12 inches between that surface and the top of the seat. If you are unsure which stool clears your bar, call our team for help matching one to your bar height.
Diamond-Stitched, Ladder Back, Tufted and Barrel Back Styles
The back sets the look of the stool. We carry diamond-stitched, ladder back, button tufted and barrel designs, plus veneer back panels in walnut finishes. Some models add a footrest, including pipe and gold styles, for guests who sit for longer.
Match Your Metal Bar Stools to the Rest of the Room
Metal bar stools cover the bar and counter. Our restaurant tables and restaurant chairs fill in the dining room, and booths add fixed seating along the walls.
If you want to mix materials, see our commercial swivel bar stools, veneer metal bar stools, commercial aluminum bar stools or commercial wooden bar stools. You can also browse all of our indoor bar stools.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you clean metal bar stools with vinyl seats without damaging them?
Wipe vinyl seats with a soft cloth and a mild soap and water solution. Skip abrasive cleaners and scrub brushes, which wear down the vinyl finish and can lead to early cracking. Wipe metal frames with a damp cloth and dry them.
What seat height should I choose for a bar or counter?
Measure from the floor to the underside of your bar or counter, then leave about 10 to 12 inches between that surface and the top of the seat. Call our team if you need help matching a stool to your bar height.
How long does delivery take for my metal bar stools?
Delivery normally takes 3 to 9 business days from the date of shipment, depending on distance, area and weather. We do not use flat rates. Request a freight quote at checkout and we reply by email within one business hour.
Can you deliver metal bar stools to a restaurant without a loading dock?
Yes. Standard quotes cover commercial addresses with curbside delivery only. For locations without a dock, we offer lift gate service, which lowers your stools to the ground on a mechanical platform.
