Platter and Co grazing tables feed 10 to any number of guests. Savoury and sweet run from 0.5 m (up to 15 guests) to 6 m (up to 180). Brunch tables go from 10 to 15 guests up to 100, and fruit tables from up to 20 (0.5 m) to up to 100 (3.5 m). Kids tables go up to 30. See the grazing table packages for every size.

A 1 metre savoury or sweet grazing table feeds up to 35 guests, a 1 metre fruit table feeds up to 40 and a 1 metre kids table up to 30. Each number is the most a table feeds, so a smaller crowd can use it. For comparison, a 0.5 metre savoury or sweet table feeds up to 15 guests and a 2 metre savoury or sweet table up to 55. See the grazing table packages for every size.
