Advice on kitchen plan - breakfast bar or kitchen table?

[Starrynight0]

I'd love some thoughts and advice on our new kitchen design. We're particularly undecided on whether to incorporate a breakfast bar or whether a small kitchen table would be better (no room for both).

I've attached a rough plan for each (ignore the detail, just trying to decide which overall layout is best). I've drawn in a table and breakfast bar roughly but these aren't to scale. We wouldn't have wall units along that bit of the kitchen.

I love the idea of a breakfast bar but was concerned something only big enough for two people would look a bit silly and a table would be better.

On the other hand a table may look too bulky and squashed in, and partially block the route from the hallway to the conservatory/garden. (We are changing the layout so need to use our imaginations a bit here - there is currently no kitchen where the American FF / larder units are, the whole space is a dining area.)

Any thoughts??

We have both and nobody sits at the breakfast bar! In fact we are just redesigning our kitchen and will get rid of it.

I’m baffled about the fridge off on its own. It’s going to be so annoying. Equally, it’s not my kitchen and what annoys me may make perfect sense with how you cook.

I'm a few days late to this but I think you could consider moving the radiator (maybe a vertical) to the wall that currently has the fridge freezer on it. This would allow a longer run of storage and fridge freezer on the far wall and you could then but up an extendable table against the other wall. Bench seating rather than tables would be particularly space saving and flexible depending on how you orientated the table. I think you'd get much more out of the room this way and at not much additional expense.

Because it's an oven you want your pan DRaWEr in a 60 unit. I call worktops a (work)BENCH sometimes. Sorry to confuse.
Also in an integrated kitchen often a larder fridge next to a larder freezer built in gives you more room than American style. I personally don't like AFF with integrated drinks and ice because they require so much extra fiddly cleaning around the pipes etc. I read one article about legionnaires disease 15yrs ago and haven't recovered!
