GP Furniture Makers / Case Study
Guinness Open Gate Brewery
When Guinness opened its Open Gate Brewery & Barrel House in Maryland, its first U.S. brewery built from the ground up for Guinness and its first American brewing presence in more than 60 years, Greg Pilotti Furniture Makers was brought on to create 84 custom booth tables for the restaurant.
Designed for daily use, frequent cleaning, and the natural wear of a busy hospitality space, the tables brought together solid materials, commercial-grade construction, and custom details that connected each piece back to the Guinness story.
Booth Tables Built for the Restaurant
| Description | Each table was crafted from solid oak planks and finished with a durable catalyzed urethane coating, designed to stand up to frequent cleaning and heavy daily use. The tops are supported by substantial steel pedestal bases, giving each piece the strength required for a high-traffic hospitality environment. To make the tables truly custom, each one features a unique Guinness cask number CNC-carved into the wood surface and filled with black epoxy, creating a distinctive detail that ties the finished pieces directly back to the brand. | Materials | Solid wood oak, flat black powder coated steel, inlaid epoxy numbering |
