What Is A Cafe Barrier?
A cafe barrier is a printed banner stretched between two weighted stainless steel posts using top and bottom rails. It defines your seating area, manages queues and works as a branded advert at the same time. Our cafe barrier systems come in 1m, 1.5m and 2m widths with chrome or matt black posts, print your banner double sided for free, and connect together to form straight runs or L shapes outside cafes, pubs, restaurants and events across the UK.
Pick The Cafe Barrier Width That Fits Your Space
All three widths share the same 80cm banner height and connect together, so you can mix sizes to cover any frontage.

Chrome Or Matt Black Cafe Barrier Posts

Polished Chrome
Bright, classic and smart. Suits traditional pubs, cafes and heritage frontages.
Matt Black
Modern and understated. Lets your banner colours do the talking.
Outdoor Cafe Barriers That Work As Windbreaks And Screens
These are outdoor cafe barriers first and foremost, built to live on the pavement in British weather and earn their keep in more ways than one.
A Windbreak For Al Fresco Tables
The printed banner doubles as a cafe wind barrier at table height, taking the edge off gusts so menus stay put and diners stay longer. For exposed corners, choose pole pockets top and bottom to keep the banner taut.
A Screen That Defines Your Space
Used as cafe screens, they mark the edge of your licensed seating area, keep queues and walkways tidy and give guests a sense of privacy from the pavement without walling anyone in.
Heavy Duty, Out In All Weathers
Stainless steel posts on 10kg weighted bases and weatherproof banners that wipe clean. Heavy duty cafe barriers that go out at opening and come in at close, day after day.
