Recommended stone for your bar top
From our experience of designing and installing bespoke stone bar tops, our recommendations would be either quartz or granite.
Both these materials offer a unique look with the patterns and colours available. They are also durable and won’t scratch or etch with everyday use.
A quartz bar top will shine brightly under dim lights, which can help create a perfect atmosphere, but we have found that the most popular choice is a dark granite which doesn’t stand out under the lighting, and won’t show any spillages but does require a little bit more upkeep.

Differences between Quartz and Granite
There are obvious differences between the two materials that we recommend are used for bespoke bar tops.
Quartz is man-made, making it slightly harder than granite. This also means that it doesn’t need sealing and is very low maintenance, so it’s a perfect choice for a bar. However, quartz is sensitive to UV rays and with regular sun exposure can change colour over time. This should be something to consider if your bar is outside, or has large windows with direct sunlight streaming in.
Granite is a natural stone, which is formed by the cooling of magma. Because it is a natural stone, it is quite porous, so sealing is regularly needed to prevent the stone from absorbing any liquid and staining. However, if you keep on top of the sealing, granite can be a great choice for a bar top.
Both granite and quartz are made up of various other materials. Therefore the patterns and colourings of each slab will vary depending on how much of each material is in it.
Benefits of a Stone Bar Top
There are a number of reasons why stone is ideal for a bar top. These include:
- Easy to clean – Most of the time, stone bar tops only need a wipe with a damp cloth (and sometimes a mild soap). Being so easy to clean means that your customers will always have a clean place to rest their arm while they wait for, or sip on, their drinks. Stone also does not harbour bacteria or other microorganisms, making it a naturally clean material to use.
- Durable – Bar tops can be busy meaning they are susceptible to scratches and stains. But stone is hard wearing so it can look great for a long time.
- Range of colours and patterns to choose from – With the wide range of colours and patterns we have available, you will be able to find the perfect stone to suit the rest of your interior. View our materials gallery to see your options.
- Elegant finish – A stone bar top can be a stunning centrepiece for a bar creating a high-end feel that will catch any customers’ eye.
