What Is a Sideboard and How Is It Different From a Buffet?
A sideboard or buffet sideboard cabinet is a low storage unit with doors, shelves and drawers for storing dinnerware, glassware and table linen. Traditionally, a dining buffet cabinet sat in the dining room so food could be served from the top surface while essentials stayed hidden below.
Sideboards and buffets are used almost interchangeably. A dining room buffet usually lives near your table, while a sideboard table or side board might be styled with lamps, artwork and family photos in a living room, kitchen or hallway.

How to Choose the Right Sideboard Furniture for Your Space
1. Measure your room and clearances
- The length of the wall where you plan to place the sideboard.
- The depth available, allowing for chairs, door swings and walkways.
- The space required to fully open any doors and drawers.
2. Match your existing dining and living room furniture
Consider how your new sideboard will sit with the rest of your furniture. A reclaimed timber sideboard buffet ties together a mix of chairs and tables, while a painted or blue sideboard adds a focal point in a neutral room.
Look at the finishes and shapes of your dining table, chairs and nearby pieces. Choosing a sideboard cupboard from the same collection, or with a similar colour and style, creates a calm, cohesive feel.
