Need help designing our dinning room that is directly off of our front entry way. Looking at getting a new table/chairs. I’ve been considering one of the board game tables, as we play a lot of games/puzzles, or using a banquet style or bench seating, but most of what I have read is that they are uncomfortable or impractical for hosting.
Also would like something to make these areas feel a little more distinct.

Main issue is the layout of the dinning room is awkward with the hallways and entry way, and wanted to know if any one had some ideas…

Included a rough sketch with dimensions, and several photos including a cat for reference 🤣

Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks!
