The ideal distance between a kitchen seating area and a countertop can vary depending on a few factors, including the type of seating and the overall layout of the kitchen. However, a general guideline is to have a distance of about 36-42 inches (91-107 cm) between the edge of the countertop and the seats. This allows enough space for comfortable seating and movement, while still maintaining a convenient and functional proximity to the countertop for dining or additional workspace.
