Tabletop chalkboards 

Tabletop chalkboards are ever-popular for displaying menus in pubs, bars and bistros. Tabletop chalkboard signs also work well in retail environments where a small blackboard and chalk pen combine to create a unique, sustainable, and engaging way to communicate.

 

Table top blackboards 

Our table top blackboards work well with chalk pens to provide the perfect solution for indoor displays and summer craft fairs outdoors. Some of our table chalkboards are suitable for use with stick chalk, however, we recommend liquid chalk pens for a superior professional finish. Wet wipe pens, which can be wiped clean with a damp cloth, are ideal. We supply an excellent range of chalk pens.

These table chalkboards are perfect for "Today's Specials" and food and drinks menus in pubs, restaurants, bars, as well as in gift shops, garden centres and many other settings. They serve up a vintage and rustic feel, giving the customer a more personal buying experience.

 

Versatile and attractive tabletop chalkboard signs

Tabletop chalkboard signs are often fun and imaginative. Tabletop chalkboard menu signs are perfect for coffee shop menuboards, tea shops and other informal environments such as craft stalls selling eco beauty products. The natural and environmentally-friendly look of a small chalkboard standing on a table reinforces your USP of homemade goodies, locally sourced ingredients and similar local provenance messages. The charm of well-crafted chalkboards standing on a table or counter helps communicate the personality of your business.

 

Charming, quirky or practical

A café menu board or gift shop price sign can be made quirky too, by choosing a charming chalkboard stand shaped like a teapot, dinner plate or coffee mug. We also offer tabletop chalkboard stands based on the blackboard and easel concept - big enough for your needs but small enough to stand on a table or artisan's workbench.  There are also cute miniature replica sandwich boards and A-frames, which look unusual and eye-catching set amongst giftware or jewellery displays. Then we have the excellent value and very popular handheld range of table menu boards with a cut-out hand hole - very practical for serving staff to handle.

Tips for writing on chalkboards

  • Worried your handwriting may not be good enough for a tabletop chalkboard sign? Practice and preparation can work wonders. 
  • The chalk pens are erasable, so if it didn't work the first time, simply wipe off and try again. 
  • Lay out your idea on paper first so you don't try to cram too many words on one line. 
  • Remember, you can rule pencil lines on the chalkboard to act as a guide. 
  • We also supply stencils for use with chalkboards - mostly suitable for larger decorative elements. 
  • Be careful when introducing a second colour - ensure your ink is dry to avoid colours running into each other. 
  • Shake your chalk pen with the lid on to ensure the ink is well mixed and there isn't any sediment resulting in watery writing. 
  • Pump the nib of the chalk pen to ensure it is well charged with ink, but be sure to blot off any excess. 
  • Work logically to reduce the risk of smudging.
