When you're outfitting a commercial hospitality space, the furniture decision often splits between pieces built for the space and accessories you can place right away. These two options sit at opposite ends of that spectrum: a custom restaurant booth upholstery manufacturer listing work at $135.00 per foot, and a Rubbermaid Commercial seating tray listed at $71.17. One is a made-to-order seating project; the other is a compact tray component. Which one belongs in your plan depends on whether you're building out a dining room or adding a small seating accessory.
Quick Verdict
If your project is a full dining area with upholstered booth seating, the custom commercial booth upholstery is the direction to plan around. If you need a small, ready-made tray for a seating position, the Rubbermaid Commercial Seating Tray is the simpler, lower-priced option.

Where the Rubbermaid Tray Wins

Product Notes
Custom Commercial Restaurant Booth Upholstery
This product covers commercial restaurant booth furniture and upholstered seating, with pricing at $135.00 per foot. The base booth style is Plain Back, and the manufacturer accepts custom orders in biscuit, channel, and button tufting styles. Shapes run from single and double booths to wall booths, corner L shapes, half circles, and 3/4 circles. The booths are manufactured, assembled, and upholstered in a US factory, using high-density back and seat foams in a range of colors and materials. That makes this the option to plan around when you're fitting a dining room with consistent, upholstered booth seating. The main thing to keep in mind is the per-foot price: the final cost scales with the total footage you need, so it suits larger projects rather than a single small piece.
Rubbermaid Commercial Fg781588plat Seating Tray
The Rubbermaid Commercial seating tray is a plastic tray with a 3 1/4-inch height, priced at $71.17. It's a new item from Rubbermaid Commercial and is shaped as a tray, so it fills a different role than booth seating. If you need a small component to add to a seating position without commissioning upholstered booth work, this is the more direct and lower-priced pick. The trade-off is that it won't replace a custom booth build or provide upholstered comfort. For a project that needs only a tray, the lower listed price and simple form make it the economical choice. For a full dining room renovation, it would play a supporting role at most.
Final Choice by Use Case
- Building out a dining room with custom seating: Choose the custom commercial restaurant booth upholstery at $135.00 per foot for upholstered booths in the shapes and tufting styles you need.
- Adding a small tray to an existing seat: Choose the Rubbermaid Commercial Seating Tray at $71.17 for a compact, ready-made plastic tray.
