How much tile should we use for bar seating?

We are installing a wet bar in our basement. The area behind the bar will be tiled, and we want to tile the seating area as well. Is there a standard width that people use (distance from bar front to where flooring changes to carpet)?

Thanks for your help!

    It kind of depends on the size and type of barstools you have. Some have a compact size and on others, the legs are pretty far apart. What you need to do is sit down at the bar and then turn in the chair and get up, moving the barstool back out from the bar like people do. Then, allow some extra beyond that to allow for people that are larger in size to be able to get up comfortably, also.

    Just beyond the furthest point that the barstool legs end up, is where the tile would need to go.

    Good luck!! : )
