Our core offering spans laminate worktops, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/internal-doors.html\">doors<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/decking.html\">decking<\/a>, which you may have already had a chance to browse for yourself. If so, you may have noticed we also offer a great range of breakfast bars alongside our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops.html\">laminate worktops<\/a>, which can provide a whole array of benefits for your kitchen. We often get questions about them here at Savoy Timber, so this week on the blog we thought it was worth covering a few of their key benefits!<\/p>\n<h2>1. They\u2019re incredibly practical<\/h2>\n<p>Even though breakfast bars are sometimes more compact than other standard laminate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/kitchen-worktops.html\">kitchen worktops<\/a>, they can serve many of the same functions &#8211; and quite well they do, too! You can use them for food preparation, dining, or even as a place to sit while you do some reading, chatting or keeping an eye on the children. Breakfast bars can be used in place of traditional laminate worktops, or as a supplement to them, giving you some much-welcomed additional space.<\/p>\n<h2><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"img-responsive alignnone wp-image-1079 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Top-Tips-To-Keep-Your-Kitchen-Worktops-Tidy-1.jpg\" alt=\"preparing meal\" width=\"730\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Top-Tips-To-Keep-Your-Kitchen-Worktops-Tidy-1.jpg 730w, https:\/\/savoytimber.com\/help-and-advice\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/Top-Tips-To-Keep-Your-Kitchen-Worktops-Tidy-1-300x123.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/h2>\n<h2>2. They\u2019re highly versatile and useful for small kitchens<\/h2>\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest &#8211; though many of us might love the look and feel of the cavernous kitchens you see in magazines and on professional websites, the reality is relatively very few of us have that much space to work with. Outfitting your kitchen properly sometimes means making some sacrifices, and that\u2019s where breakfast bars can come in handy. They\u2019re an easy fit for a smaller home, allowing you to comfortably seat anywhere between two and four people, so you can all dine and chat together. If you\u2019ve not got space for a dining table and you\u2019re not keen on having dinner on the sofa, a breakfast bar can be the perfect answer!<\/p>\n<h2>3. They\u2019re noticeably stylish, and increasingly on trend<\/h2>\n<p>While you may not have seen that many breakfast bars in homes around the UK just a few years ago, they\u2019re increasingly becoming a staple of modern kitchens. Contemporary kitchens are particularly well suited to breakfast bars, but they make an undeniably stylish complement to almost any kitchen. It\u2019s ideal for impressing your guests at social occasions, and provides easy, convenient and flexible seating &#8211; especially if you\u2019ve got a group of them round for a summer barbecue or party!<\/p>\n<p>We stock breakfast bars in a range of styles and finishes right here at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savoytimber.com\/\">Savoy Timber,<\/a> so you\u2019re never short of choice when you shop with us. You can take your pick from the ones right here on our website, or drop into any of our DIY stores in Blackpool, Preston or Wigan, to see what we\u2019ve got for yourself. While you\u2019re there, feel free to direct any questions you might have to our friendly members of staff, who are always happy to lend a helping hand with as much or as little advice as you require!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For over 50 years now here at Savoy Timber, we\u2019ve been providing a fantastic range of home and timber products to customers all over the North West (and even nationwide!).
