The same room.

Long table.

A shared surface gives the meal a common center. People sit along the two long sides, with no end chairs in this illustrated setup.

Circulation to discuss
Agree how guests, serving staff and mobility equipment move between the foyer, table and service room. The drawing establishes no clearances.
Setup to discuss
Confirm table and chair dimensions, linen, service sequence, dietary information and the time needed to clear the room.
What this changes
A table supports dining and materials, but fixes the center of the room and makes face-to-face discussion across the whole group less direct.

Keep the useful details.

Attendance is your interest, not a confirmed capacity. The operator must review the actual event, furniture, routes and facilities.

For a shared meal, discuss service style, dietary needs and the movement between kitchen support and the table.

Questions to carry into the inquiry

Compare the open circle.

The open-circle illustration places seven chairs around an empty center, with a gap toward arrival. It supports direct conversation but removes a shared surface for food or materials. Confirm seating support, audibility and how people enter or leave the group.
