Bistro is THE iconic collection in the Fermob catalogue. Over the years, it has adorned terraces the world over – from New York to Sydney and Shanghai. The chair – the masterpiece of the collection – has its origins in the late 19th century, when it graced open-air cafés on the banks of the Seine. The Bistro chair was an instant success, thanks to its simple, sturdy, easy-to-handle design, which appealed to lemonade-sellers because they could avoid having to pay the licence for a fixed terrace.
The collection has undergone technical improvements over time – and it hasn’t aged one bit since it was first born!
Fermob has channelled all its expertise into a brand-new collection of “reinforced” Bistro tables recommended for professionnal use: Bistro+. These folding tables feature a thicker steel sheet table top (1.2mm) to improve resistance to knocks and bumps. The extra thickness has also allowed us to remove the rim, thereby greatly reducing corrosion risk.
