Edinburgh’s unique charm lies in its history and character — this character can even be found in its uneven pavements and sloping streets! For Côte Brasserie, this presented an opportunity to create an inviting alfresco dining space, despite the significant challenge of maintaining stable tables on an unpredictable surface. Enter our NOROCK self-stabilising table bases, designed to tackle uneven ground with ease, offering both practicality and elegance.
Alfresco dining on a slope: A unique challenge
The outdoor dining area at Côte Brasserie sits on a pavement with a considerable gradient. Traditional table bases would wobble, risking spilt drinks and a frustrating experience for diners. However, our NOROCK self-stabilising table bases are engineered specifically for such environments. Our patented next-generation technology ensures that each table adjusts automatically to the ground beneath it, delivering unmatched stability no matter the incline.
This self-stabilising feature transforms outdoor dining. For customers, it means uninterrupted enjoyment of their meal, even on uneven terrain. For staff, it eliminates the constant need to readjust tables or clean up spills, saving time and effort. The result? A seamless dining experience that combines French cuisine with Scottish charm.
Easy set-up and pack-down
Our Terrace model features our self-stabilising technology like all our table bases, but it also features a flip-top design and nesting functionality, making storage simple and setup effortless. Perfect for alfresco areas it offers unmatched convenience for busy periods and smooth transitions. Combined with weather-friendly aluminium, our Terrace is built to withstand the elements, ensuring long-term performance (note: if you are located seaside or in an extreme weather location we recommend our next-level protection).
