Once again, let’s talk about coffee tables people! Specifically, SQUARE coffee tables this time. Last week we discussed all things round coffee tables, so this week we’re going to hit the square ones!!
There’s something about square coffee tables that screams clean, modern, and chic. There’s so much space to add decor items and enough surface area to play around when it comes to decorating and practicality. I originally wanted a square coffee table for my living room, but I ended up going round for several reasons (which you can read about in my previous blog post here). However, I did do a lot of research and came across several square coffee table options. From solid wood drum tables to ones with wood tabletops and metal legs, there were tons of variety for any decor style.
I’ve narrowed down all the square coffee tables I found during my extensive search to the best ones listed below. All of these options are both affordable and aesthetic. They have great reviews and have left several customers super happy. Here is a complete list of square coffee tables under $500, perfect for your small apartment. You need to see these now!!
Let’s get into it…

The square coffee tables listed below are organized based on where they’re from!
Square Coffee Tables from Wayfair:

This first option is super simple and at such an affordable price! You really can’t go wrong with this one. And based on the reviews, it seems several customers are super happy with their purchase.

3. Tylor Block Coffee Table
Almost went with this option for my living room! Love that it comes in a few different colors to align with various decor styles. This solid drum table is modern in shape and rustic in texture. SO hard to find this style at a reasonable price too!! (P.S. This table also has drawers for additional storage space, what’s not to love.)

Square Coffee Tables from Home Depot:
4. Pomona 27 in. Rustic Natural/Black Medium Square Wood Coffee Table with Shelf
Another two-tiered option from Home Depot. Definitely a more rustic style. Would be perfect if you’re jammed for space and looking for something fairly small!

Square Coffee Tables from Amazon:
5. Signature Design by Ashley – Haroflyn Rustic Square Cocktail Table, Gray
This ones gives me rustic farmhouse vibes! Love the detailing of the legs and the wood is a nice gray-wash tone. Simplistic and easy to incorporate into any apartment.

6. SIMPLIHOME Abba SOLID MANGO WOOD 28 inch Wide Square Modern Coffee Table in Dark Brown, Fully Assembled, for the Living Room and Family Room
Love that this coffee table sits flush to the ground. The wood is a warmer tone and there is a gold trim detail at the bottom. The combination of the wood and gold would be ideal for an organic modern apartment (on a budget of course)!!

7. Tup The Urban Port 36 Inch Square Shape Acacia Wood Coffee Table with Trapezoid Base, Dark Brown
This one is super similar to the option above however, it is fully wood and has no gold detailing. I like how this one looks like a tray, ideal for coffee table styling. I also like how it’s in a trapazoid shape, creating more foot-room, yet still ample surface area for decor/functionality.

Square Coffee Tables from West Elm:
10. Kit Coffee Table
Love this tray-style option from West Elm! The black wood tray and black metal legs work super well together. It’s almost like my current coffee table in my living room, just a square version!!

11. Two Tray Coffee Table
Another two-tiered option, super similar to the Studebaker 4 Legs Coffee Table from Wayfair above (Option #2). However, this one is a bit more of a tray-style, which is a really nice detail that adds to the table. Also, love the wood on this one. It definitely looks super high-end, which makes sense with the price 😂!

12. Hazel Coffee Table
This one might be amazing if you have a bit more space. The dimensions are definitely a bit larger than some of the other options listed here. However, the shape and style are super unique!! Extremely modern and can be styled in so many different ways.

13. Volume Outdoor Square Coffee Table
This option is actually an outdoor table, but I wanted to provide another solid, drum-style option that is similar to the Tylor Block Coffee Table from Wayfair above (Option #3). This one is a bit more on the expensive side, but the quality looks amazing!! A definite contender if you’re willing to splurge a bit for this look.

Square Coffee Tables from Overstock:
14. SAFAVIEH Couture Avia Square Coffee Table – 31.5 IN W x 31.5 IN D x 16.3 IN H – 31.5 IN W x 31.5 IN D x 16.3 IN H
Last but not least, this swivel table from Overstock. It reminds me of something from CB2 and I LOVE IT. The wood color, the swivel, the storage, you can’t go wrong with this one!! I also like how it’s somewhat similar to the solid drum ones listed above (in the sense that it sits flush to the ground), but there’s an added uniqueness with the swivel feature.
