At Printing for Less, we know table tents design like the backs of our hands. After all we see them all the time. As it happens, so do you! But maybe you haven’t noticed them. Table tents can be found everywhere, but are especially common in establishments such as restaurants or cafes. Like most people, you probably gave it a cursory glance before depositing it out of the way of your conversation or your in-coming drink order.
If you are into marketing (since you’re reading this, you must be) then you may have given that piece of cardstock a longer than average look. You might have assessed the table tent’s design, the color scheme, font choices, maybe even the stock images that were selected. But let’s face it: most table tents rarely inspire more than a quick look at the monthly specials. It doesn’t have to be that way! These little gems are a fantastic under-appreciated resource: inexpensive, designed to meet any need, and so easy to set up that even a rampaging horde of unsupervised temps could still get them right.
Here are 10 unique table tent designs that are elevating the lowly table tent from clutter to eye-catching.
1. Table Flyer
These are a fabulous way to generate interest in a restaurant, cafe, or fundraising event. Although they are technically table tents, these almost defy the term with their unusual design. A colorful array of tantalizing dishes draws your audience in to peruse the interior. Keep up their interest peaked with a few fantastic fonts in varying sizes to make the contents as dynamic as the exterior.
What exactly does fine wine have to do with finance? We have no idea. But pyramids have been elevating the concept of wealth to new heights for thousands of years. These table tents are positively decadent in luscious hues of cabernet and rose. Try adding gold foil highlights to compliment the rich undertones and add some lux to your royal design.

These table tents are positively decadent in luscious hues of cabernet and rose. Try adding gold foil highlights to compliment the rich undertones and add some lux to your royal design.
3. Gatorade
Gatorade has built an empire upon athletic prowess and this table tent makes the most of that association. Relying upon the brand recognition of their classic shade of orange, this topper goes the extra mile by identifying with the viewer through an act as simple as running. Throw in a couple of one-liners and a quick pitch on the back and they are off to a great start.
4. Energy and Power
Table tents are so frequently about food but these ones really take the cake. Vibrant colors and great illustrations create a tactile experience that makes your audience hungry for more. Use a complimentary banner or artistic fonts to keep the interest peaked. Whether you’re selling baguettes, bathmats, or BitCoin, effective imagery grows your audience and builds anticipation.
5. Tiger
A yawning maw to make even the most daring marketing exec pause! But look! This one has been transformed into a catchy little game. Whether your clientele chooses to blow their sleeve intact from the straw or ball it up and launch it by hand, they are already engaged with your brand and having fun. Who knew that a table tent could do so much?
6. Myths and Legends
Mainstream doesn’t have to mean boring. Podcasts are everywhere and that means that it can be easy to get lost in the deluge of new ones popping up on the daily. Enter the Dragon! Messy, fat brush strokes and charred colors instill a sense of chaos and dynamism. You can almost smell the sulfur and smoke. This will certainly get people warmed up to this brand!
7. Steele
As far as table tents go, this one pretty much speaks for itself. When making an impact, it pays to rely on simple ideas. Like an ad straight out of Vogue; from the glasses to the font everything about this piece is outspoken and larger than life. It refuses to settle for average. With it’s ‘Follow me’ attitude, it successfully creates a sense of mystique and gives the target audience something to talk about.
8. Geo-metric
A great play on an idea, this design kicks things up a notch and takes table tents to a whole new level. When a customer wanted to talk about the geothermal heat used in their kitchens, this designer gave it shape. Geometric shape, that is! We love the play-on-ideas of the several ways ‘geo’ features in this design. Playful and in primary colors, it begs to be handled, picked up, rolled, and of course, read. The fonts are wonderfully organic and make the information accessible all at once.
9. Everyday Magic
For office workers across the world, the restorative powers of caffeine can certainly seem like magic. But sharing the experience of your favorite hot beverage with friends (whether in the office or out) can make that everyday event something special. That was obviously the idea in mind for this promotional material. With the magic of a die-cut, you too can share that experience with your friends and clients. That kind of everyday magic isn’t a complicated idea and neither is this design. Au natural cardstock, a sweet but simple illustration, and a great idea. Throw in some kitschy fonts and light use of color and we have ourselves a winner! With a small modification, this design would even make a superb gift card holder for your next promotional event (hint hint!)
10. What is It?
Although this design was developed as a mock-up for an imaginary product, it is simply spectacular. The fact that it also doubles as a centerpiece or gift bag is just another reason to love this inspirational work. Anyone can try their hand at a black and white design, but it takes skill to make an intriguing product. Graceful fonts worked in gold make a beautiful accent in this presentation. Instead of distracting from the overall effect, they elevate the design and leave us wondering, what is this product and where can I get one?
With so many gorgeous options to choose from, you will be hard-pressed to pick just one table tent for your next promotion. But with your ideas and the know-how of our expert designers at Printing for Less, together we can build the marketing campaign of your dreams.
