    Booths make me feel locked in. I don't like that. I have the freedom to get up whenever I want from a table. You know, just in case I have to run off or start a fight or catch a pretty fainting damsel in distress.
    This is the only downside with booths. Especially if you're sat furthest from the aisle, and you need to go to the bathroom. Cue awkward 'could you move?' situations while the person next to you has to get up for you.

    I hate this situation. I'm too polite to say anything though so I inevitably just hold it until I burst and die.

    Going into a restaurant could literally be a life or death situation each time.

    Agreed, that is a lame situation. In a group which is any larger than me and Formy, I would prefer a table. But, if there's only two of you, then there's no problem.

    Eh. When you gotta go, you gotta go. They can get their happy ass out of the way. I'd move for them.

    I prefer a table, because then I'm not forced into only exiting one way.

    Also, you know, Chairs are more comfortable than booths unless I get a whole booth side to myself and can prop my feet up.

    According to a guy at work, if two guys get a booth, regardless as to the logistics of it, gaaaaay.

    A booth, its comfy and I can hide myself away.

    And Laddy, its the same kind of dude who would love it if two women shared a booth.

    Its hard, putting up with peoples sucky attitudes at work. But anyway.....food and resteraunts. I plan to sit in a booth with Ayen someday, see how that goes down. I will probably be passing notes to him under the table or something. In our case it will be my pathological fear of guns.

    Table. Booths are confining and usually uncomfortable.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Tables offer actual control over seat placement. You're also not confined in a pokey wee box. For me, it's usually a table.

    That said, a well-designed booth can be just the ticket for a secluded and friendly atmosphere sometimes.

    I'm not picky, but I don't really like tables for 2- they're too small.

    When Parker was a baby up until she was like 5, booths were necessary tho

    Booth. They're more comfortable to me.
