Teak, eucalyptus, and acacia wood stand up well to the elements, but you'll still want to cover your patio furniture or store it indoors in the off-season.

You'll also find tables with metal frames wrapped in wicker or rattan made of waterproof and fade-resistant synthetic resin, like the Christopher Knight Home Dominic Square Patio Bar Table. Some of the most popular options include weather-resistant teak, acacia, and eucalyptus wood, as with the Birch Lane Benedetto Outdoor Bar Table. Outdoor bar tables come in various materials.
