A gas fire pit table pulls double duty in a way nothing else in your backyard can. It gives you warmth, light, and a proper gathering spot all in one piece. No wood to haul, no ash to clean out, no smoke blowing into anyone's face. Just turn the knob, hit ignition, and your patio becomes the place everyone wants to be.
At BetterPatio, we carry gas fire pit tables from The Outdoor Plus, Cal Flame, Fire Pit Art, and our own Designer Series and Mountain Series, all backed by free US shipping, no sales tax outside California, and real humans ready to help you choose.
It is easier than you think and more useful than most people expect. A gas fire pit table wraps a gas burner inside a proper table frame, so the surrounding surface gives you actual tabletop space for drinks, plates, and remotes.
It functions as a centerpiece you can sit around on cold nights and a regular table on the nights you do not need fire at all.
This is the core reason people make the switch from wood-burning pits. A gas fire pit table lights with a single push or turn and shuts off just as fast.
There are no ashes to shovel, no leftover wood to drag inside before rain, and no smoke smell embedded in everyone's jacket by the end of the night.
Most gas fire pit tables come with a lid insert that covers the burner area and converts it into a flat outdoor table.
That means your investment earns its place even on the nights you skip the fire. A wood-burning pit cannot do that.
Both fuel types burn cleanly and look great. The choice comes down to your patio infrastructure and how much you want to think about fuel logistics over the years.
Neither option is wrong, but one is almost always a better fit for your specific situation.
A propane gas fire pit table does not need any gas line work before you buy it. Connect a standard 20-pound tank to the fitting, slide it into the base storage compartment, and you are ready to go.
Most models in this collection include a built-in enclosure that hides the tank completely so the table looks clean from every angle.
If you have a natural gas line at your home or are open to running one to your patio, natural gas is cheaper per BTU than liquid propane in most markets and never runs out mid-evening.
You hook it up once through a licensed plumber and that is the last time you ever think about fuel for that table.
Many gas fire pit tables in this collection are available in both configurations, so you can choose at checkout based on your current setup.

Shape affects how well the table works within your existing seating layout, not just how it looks.
Picking the wrong shape for your patio arrangement is the most common mistake people make, and it is the easiest one to avoid.
Round tables work best when your seating surrounds the fire from all sides.
Four to six chairs or club seats arranged in a circle around a round gas fire pit table create an even, intimate setup where everyone faces the flame equally.
The circular format also suits smaller patios where a long rectangular shape would feel cramped.
If your outdoor seating runs in two parallel rows facing each other, two sofas, two rows of chairs, or a sectional, a rectangular table belongs in between them.
Rectangular gas fire pit tables can run from 42 to over 80 inches long, which scales to large entertaining setups where a compact round option would look undersized.
Many rectangular models include a linear burner that produces a long, low wall of flame that follows the full length of the table.
Square tables split the difference. They work well with four-chair arrangements where you want equal spacing on every side without the length of a rectangular table.
Square models typically seat four to six people and fit cleanly into symmetrical patio layouts.
Material is what determines how long your gas fire pit table holds up and how much work you put into keeping it looking good.
The options in this collection range from lightweight architectural concrete to powder-coated steel to fully customizable prefab frames. Here is how they stack up.
Glass fiber reinforced concrete is the premium material in this category. It looks like solid concrete but weighs roughly 50 percent less, handles outdoor temperature swings without cracking, and holds color across years of UV exposure because the pigment is blended into the material during casting.
The Outdoor Plus produces GFRC gas fire pit tables with 304 stainless steel burners, multiple ignition options, and finish choices ranging from smooth concrete to woodgrain to metallic textures.
Cal Flame gas fire pit tables let you choose your own exterior finish from a range of Ameristone Stucco, Cultured Stone, Porcelain Tile, and Natural Stone Tile options.
The stainless steel burner outputs 55,000 BTUs, the frame is built on a 316-galvanized steel structure, and the battery-powered electronic ignition means no matches or lighters.
The tabletop surround gives you actual usable ledge space for drinks alongside the burner opening.
Built on more than 40 years of outdoor fabrication experience, BetterPatio's own Mountain Series gas fire pit tables use triple-coat galvanized steel framing and precision welding with patent-pending Slip-N-Lock assembly supports.
These are ready-to-assemble fire tables designed for longevity and made in the USA.
BTU output tells you how much heat the burner actually puts out. Ignition tells you how easy the table is to use on a daily basis.
Getting both right means your gas fire pit table performs well in your specific outdoor environment rather than looking good and underdelivering.
For a small to mid-size patio under 200 square feet with some wind protection, a 40,000 to 55,000 BTU burner is the right range.
For larger open-air spaces or patios that get regular wind, step up to 65,000 to 90,000 BTUs. Bigger is not always better here.
A very high-output burner in a small covered patio can overheat the space and make seating uncomfortable.
Match-lit is the most basic and the least expensive. Flame-sense systems add an automatic shutoff if the flame goes out unexpectedly, which is useful for unattended or semi-covered use.
Push-button spark lets you light the fire without any external tool.
Full 110V electronic ignition is the most convenient option for everyday use and is what most people reach for when they want the simplest possible experience.
There is no shortage of places to buy a gas fire pit table online. Most of them stock whatever moves, ship it to your curb, and stop there.
BetterPatio is a specialty outdoor living retailer and the difference shows up immediately in the brands we carry, the delivery options we offer, and the help available before you ever place an order.
The Outdoor Plus, Cal Flame, Fire Pit Art, and BetterPatio's own fire table series are not brands you find at a big-box store.
They are purpose-built outdoor fire feature manufacturers with real material standards, meaningful warranties, and replacement parts that are actually available.
We carry them because we would put them in our own backyards.
A GFRC concrete gas fire pit table can weigh over 150 pounds. BetterPatio's Preferred White Glove Delivery sends a two- to four-person crew that unloads the piece, moves it to your preferred outdoor spot, unpacks everything, and hauls all the packing materials away.
You do not have to figure out how to move a 200-pound fire table from a truck to your back patio on your own.
A gas fire pit is just the burner and the surrounding structure. A gas fire pit table wraps that same burner inside a table frame that gives you actual usable surface space around the fire opening. The table surround doubles as a spot to rest drinks, food, and other items during use. Many fire pit tables also include a lid insert that converts the burner area into a flat table surface on non-fire nights, which a standalone fire pit cannot do.
For a small protected patio under 200 square feet, 40,000 to 55,000 BTU is comfortable. For larger spaces or patios with regular wind exposure, look for 65,000 BTUs and above. A more powerful burner holds its flame better in windy conditions and heats a wider seating area. The most common mistake is buying too low a BTU output for an open-air or windy space. If you are unsure, call us at 866-412-1555 and we will help you match the right output to your actual setup.
Yes, with the right clearance in place. Most gas fire pit table manufacturers require at least 80 inches of vertical clearance between the burner and any overhead structure. The space must also be open on the sides for proper ventilation. Always check the specific model's installation requirements and confirm with local fire code for your area before installation. Natural gas is generally preferred over propane in covered spaces because it disperses upward rather than pooling at ground level.
Most do. Cal Flame fire pit tables ship with a fire log set and lava rock. The Outdoor Plus models typically include lava rock as the standard display media, with fire glass available as an upgrade. Fire Pit Art models include lava rock in the gas conversion package. If you want fire glass, ceramic balls, or a custom media mix, those can usually be ordered as add-ons when you place your order.
If you want the easiest daily experience, go with push-button spark or full 110V electronic ignition. Both let you light the fire without a match or lighter and are reliable in wet or windy conditions. Flame-sense with spark is a good middle-ground option that adds an automatic shutoff if the flame goes out unexpectedly. Match-lit is fine for occasional use but is less convenient as an everyday option. The Outdoor Plus offers all five ignition configurations across their gas fire pit table lineup.
Yes. All orders ship free within the US. For heavy gas fire pit tables, BetterPatio's Preferred White Glove Delivery sends a professional crew that handles unloading, placement in your preferred outdoor location, full unpacking, and removal of all packing materials. You do not need to figure out how to move a heavy concrete or steel fire table from a truck to your backyard on your own. Ask about this option at checkout or call 866-412-1555.
