Kitchen snack tops

Let’s discover the various types of kitchen snack tops and what the advantages of having one are

From breakfast to elevenses, brunch and appetizers: snack tops accompany the most important moments of your day, even outright replacing a traditional table at times. Counters are now an integral part of modern kitchens, interpreting a dynamic and hectic lifestyle, but are they all the same? The answer is no: here are the main types of snack tops!

Central bench

Combining the sink, hob and the oven too, a central island has the dual role of worktop and practical counter to eat at. This solution is ideal for customers who associate cooking with fun: in fact, if you have guests, you can welcome them around the island, entertaining them as you cook or enjoy a tasty appetizer together.

Cantilever or lowered top

Does a central bench not offer enough space to accommodate all your guests? Don’t panic: with a raised or lowered top, connected to the side of the island, you won’t need to reduce your guest list!

Built-in snack top

A similar concept applies to the top built into the peninsula, which replicates its finish, creating the perfect extension between the cooking area and the area set aside for sociability. Can you see yourselves sitting on a bar stool, sipping your first coffee of the day?

Fixed breakfast bench

If you prefer to separate the preparation stage from the tasting one, our advice is to choose a single breakfast bench, with stylish supports that match the kitchen, such as the ones in the DeLinea collection.

Pull-out snack top

It’s there but you can’t see it: fitted with a sliding mechanism and matching the kitchen elements, the Linear pull-out top is a valid space-saving solution, which allows you both to optimise and expand the space available when necessary. All without having to compromise on convenience and aesthetics.

What is your favourite kitchen snack top? Remember that this accessory can also be used to divide and, at the same time, create continuity between the living room and the dining area: the effect will be super contemporary!
