Outdoor Restaurant Patio Furniture Case Study: Meli European Taverna
A Weather-Ready Patio Setup for Outdoor Dining in Easton, Pennsylvania
Located at 322 Northampton St, Easton, PA 18042, Meli European Taverna needed an outdoor furniture program that could handle real-world patio conditions—sun exposure, frequent turnover, and easy upkeep—while keeping a clean, elevated look. Superior Seating supplied a coordinated mix of sintered stone table tops, stainless steel bases, stackable outdoor chairs, and a modular lounge sofa to support flexible dining and relaxed hospitality moments.

The goal was simple: create a patio layout that looks refined in daylight, stays stable through service, and wipes down fast—without worrying about weather wear.
The Challenge: Outdoor Durability Without Losing Style
Outdoor dining requires furniture that holds up to UV exposure, temperature swings, frequent cleaning, and constant movement—while still looking sharp for guests and photos. Meli needed a patio solution that could stay bright, resist scratches and stains, and support both dining and lounge seating on a busy streetside footprint.
- Outdoor exposure: Materials needed to resist sun fade, moisture, and daily wipe-downs.
- Stability & longevity: Table bases had to feel solid and remain corrosion-resistant outdoors.
- Operational speed: Stackable seating and simple setups to support quick resets and storage.
- Guest comfort: Dining chairs plus lounge seating for flexible patio use.
The Solution: Sintered Stone, Stainless Steel & Stackable Seating
Superior Seating delivered a coordinated outdoor package designed for performance and visual consistency: white-and-gold sintered stone table tops paired with brushed stainless steel square bases, stackable bamboo-look aluminum chairs with textilene mesh for breathable outdoor comfort, and a Venice modular lounge sofa in Classic Beige for relaxed patio seating.
