Most durable accessories for outdoor cafes

[Buzzу]

Hi everyone! I’m getting my outdoor patio ready for the summer season. My main issue is that the wind keeps blowing our light plastic menu stands away. Does anyone have recommendations for heavy-duty, durable accessories that can actually survive the elements without looking industrial or ugly?

I eventually realized that you just can't use lightweight materials outside. I decided to switch to some weighted wooden table stands from a studio called Inko Horeca. You should definitely check this site if you want something that actually lasts. They are heavy enough to stay put but still look really stylish and organic. The wood they use is treated well, so it doesn’t just rot or warp after a little rain. It honestly made our patio look way more high-end and saved us so much hassle. It was one of the best investments I made for my cafe last year.
