20 Best Outdoor Furniture Stores to Turn Your Space Into an Oasis (2024)

Looking to turn your backyard or patio into an oasis? Bar stools, grills, lounge chairs, umbrellas—the best outdoor furniture stores will deliver everything you need to transform an average open-air space into an alfresco fantasy.

Whether you’re hoping to host hoards of friends or just lounge and take in some fresh air on your own, a comfortable space is a happy space. But buying outdoor furniture can quickly become overwhelming. Here are a few things that will make it easier:

• Take note of return policies in case what you decide on doesn’t quite fit your backyard
• Don’t forget the power of a warranty (the elements can do a number on outdoor furniture!)
• Go in with a plan—think of how you want people to flow throughout the space and buy furniture that supports that strategy. (For example, a big dining table may not be the answer if you dream of small groups catching up on gossip alfresco after a big dinner.)
• And, remember, you’ve got options! Just take time to think about them.

We’ve rounded up the very best shops that offer robust selections of outdoor furniture in a variety of styles—because why not have a slice of well-designed paradise in your own backyard?

Our Top Picks

• Best Overall: Outer
• Most Coastal Chic: Serena & Lily
• Most Minimalist: Neighbor
• Highest Sustainability Marks: Yardbird
• Widest Variety: Wayfair
• Highest Midcentury Style Points: Castlery
• Most Contemporary Styles: West Elm

Manufactured in a factory owned by the CEO’s family with recycled materials, Outer is on a mission to connect their audience with outdoor living in a sustainable way. Their products are designed to be incredibly durable with a classic coastal look.

Customers give high marks for the ease of delivery and assembly, in case you’re looking for something relatively fuss-free. Another cool differentiating factor is that, while the brand doesn’t own any retail showrooms across the country, they use their customers’ own backyards to display their products, and you can book an appointment with an Outer shopper in your area virtually or IRL to see an outdoor sectional or dining set in use.

2. Serena & Lily

Channel coastal vibes with Serena & Lily’s extensive collection of serene, beach-inspired furniture and home decor. Serena & Lily also has a team of design advisers that will collaborate with you to plan out furniture arrangements, go over swatches, create mood boards, and so on. Basically, they will do everything they can to make your outdoor (or indoor) vision a reality from start to finish—and did we mention this service is free?

The stock is full of all-weather wicker options, sleek designs topped in performance fabric, poolside lounge chairs, and much more.

3. Neighbor

For minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired outdoor furniture, head straight to Neighbor. The designs favor a rich teak, but you’ve got options when it comes to the canvas for each piece. Rich colors like rust, leaf, and ash give the furniture a surprising amount of versatility and each design is made with quick-drying foam and weather-resistant fabric.

There are a good number of options, but the best part is that they all coexist despite not hailing from the same collection (necessarily). Outdoor furniture sets from Neighbor will grow with you as you move from space to space.

4. Yardbird

Yardbird’s eco-friendly furniture is created using recycled materials, and their commitment to sustainability extends to their packaging and manufacturing. Their diverse collections are inspired by everything from English gardens to West Coast living. Yardbird has a number of showrooms around the country, so you can also view certain designs in-store.

5. West Elm

West Elm is another one of the best outdoor furniture stores. Their high-quality pieces have long been staples in living rooms and dining rooms, and they bring the same attention to detail and contemporary aesthetic to their backyard and patio collections. Shop West Elm if you’re looking for luxe outdoor seating that’s equal parts chic and comfortable.

Another thing we love is the constant rotation of designs—chances are, you’ll see something new every time you visit the site or store. From accents for small spaces to patio umbrellas, there’s plenty of outdoor patio furniture to peruse.

6. Castlery

Digging through Castlery’s site is a delight—lots of pops of texture and luxe-looking silhouettes. If you have expensive taste and don’t want to drop $10,000 on a dining set, Castlery has something for every space. Many pieces mix dark (weatherproof) textiles with natural wood, an expert combination for an elevated backyard. The brand gives off minimalist interior vibes, but way cozier. If you love bouclé and/or a neutral color palette, you’ll find something to obsess over. There may not be as many options to choose from as a big-box store, but curation and quality are the point.

7. Wayfair

If you’re looking for great deals on outdoor furniture, you’ll find them at Wayfair. The large online retailer is known for its flash sales and coupons (which you can stack on top of their everyday discounts). In addition to selling some of our favorite outdoor dining sets, fire pits, and outdoor rugs, Wayfair also has outdoor fencing and flooring, lighting, garden equipment, heating and cooling equipment—they even carry hot tubs and saunas. It’s your one-stop shop for all things outdoors. And if your order is $49 or more, delivery is free. Time to add to cart!

It’s important to check the reviews on the specific item you’re looking to buy—quality and functionality can vary, since there are a lot of different brands represented on the site.

8. Article

If you go in for Scandi-influenced, LA-presenting outdoor furniture, look no further than Article’s catalog. We love the poolside vibe of their outdoor selections, with their selection of warm neutrals and acacia wood foundations.

9. Crate & Barrel

Crate & Barrel has a robust section dedicated to outdoor living. Their bestsellers include nature-inspired seating sets, sculptural side tables, and chic loungers (like the one below). Check out their gorgeous look book for a serious dose of inspiration.

While CB2’s options skew more modern, Crate & Barrel is all about traditional and contemporary designs. Plus, a good selection of the furniture you see online can be seen in person at one of the company’s many stores.

10. CB2

CB2 is a sister brand of Crate and Barrel that skews more minimalist and modern. Need a backyard or patio design consultation? They do that too. Their designers will create mood boards and room renderings to help you bring your outdoor space to life.

The quality and delivery process is pretty standard (in a good way) for a massive retailer. Reviews have applauded quick ship times, but make sure the piece you’re looking to purchase is in stock before buying. A good number of items have longer lead times—as long as you know what to expect, you’re good.

Shop Target’s outdoor living section and your next haul might just include some backyard must-haves, like this cute-as-can-be wicker patio set. Target has patio chairs starting at $20 and seating solutions for every size space. Don’t forget to check out their vibrant selection of accessories, including bright outdoor pillows, mood-setting string lights, and every kind of planter you can imagine.

12. Lulu and Georgia

If you’re looking for a statement piece of outdoor furniture, chances are you’ll find something that catches your eye from California-based Lulu and Georgia. The brand’s highly curated selection of outdoor living essentials elevate classic silhouettes, spanning teak lounge chairs to side tables. Each piece is special and looks like something you’d find straight out of a designer’s studio. In fact, the brand consistently works with top designers from around the world to offer dialed-in furniture collections. This is a great place to shop if custom work isn’t within your budget but you still want something special.

13. Design Within Reach

Design Within Reach is another one of the best outdoor furniture stores, especially if you’re searching for high-end pieces. Their modern aesthetic brings an elite sophistication that complements any contemporary backyard. The brand also has exclusive rights to a number of iconic designs, so it’s always worth checking for special colorways or fabrics if you’re looking for a very specific piece of furniture.

14. Etsy

Look to Etsy for creative, unique, and bespoke outdoor decor. You’ll find accent tables, patio furniture sets, benches, and more. The best part about Etsy? Many of their listings are customizable, so you can get pieces tailored to your exact specifications. Take the Adirondack chair below: It’s available in more than 10 colors, ranging from natural tones to bright hues like red, yellow, orange, and turquoise.

We love supporting indie makers (and we know you do too). Etsy is a playground of small businesses—do yourself a favor and use simple search terms like “minimalist outdoor side table” or “vintage outdoor chair” so you can get a full visual on the expanse of options.

15. Anthropologie

Our favorite Anthropologie outdoor finds include mosaic tabletops, patterned outdoor sofas, garden chairs, ceramic stools, fringed hammocks, and this rattan rocker that is just begging you to sit down with a tall glass of lemonade and a good book. Shipping tends to be quick and the brand has a loyal following—there are certain pieces that are coveted long after stock sells out.

16. Amazon

Is it any surprise that Amazon would be brimming with brilliant, budget-friendly gems to outfit your patio or backyard? The mammoth retailer has more than 20,000 pieces of patio furniture. As with all products on Amazon, it’s easy to filter your search to find exactly what you want, and we appreciate that you can now filter by whether the product is sustainable and climate-friendly.

While Amazon might seem like a quick-fix option (sometimes the low prices can reflect the longevity expectation), they also have some affordable and durable options we love! Look for teak or acacia wood, and never forget to read reviews.

17. Sundays

Sundays has a great take on outdoor furniture: Make it classic, but keep it interesting. They carry all the essentials—lounge chairs, extendable dining tables, outdoor sectionals—while adding a playful touch. See for yourself with a cabana striped director’s chair and a teak and marble coffee table.

18. Rove Concepts

For those who favor contemporary designs, Rove Concepts has a robust selection of modular outdoor furniture that can easily adapt to any outdoor space—whether that’s a petite patio or a spacious pool deck. They use materials like concrete, acacia wood, rattan, and water-resistant fabrics to create a rust-free, mildew-free environment to soak up the sun.

19. Interior Define

We have no notes on the Riva Outdoor collection from Interior Define, which uses dark teak wood and a water-resistant fabric to create a vibe somewhere between forest-bathing and 1960’s poolside.

20. Burrow

If you’re big into outdoor entertaining, Burrow has a wide selection of furniture and dining options that can seat up to 12 people for outdoor movie nights, extended family dinners, small event hosting, you name it.
