Brighten your patio: asda's £60 bistro set is a steal

Forget drab garden furniture – a splash of sunshine is now within reach. With temperatures poised to climb into the mid-twenties this week, the collective urge to embrace outdoor living is palpable. And ASDA's latest offering makes it delightfully affordable to do so, providing a much-needed injection of colour to even the most neglected patios.

The butter yellow trend lands in your garden

Outdoor furniture rarely inspires. Often, it’s an exercise in choosing between expensive options and depressingly bland ones. But George at ASDA has flipped the script with a three-piece bistro set in a trending butter yellow hue, available for under £60. The shade, which has been dominating interiors this season thanks to its warmth and subtle vibrancy, is now gracing garden furniture, offering brightness without the harsh glare of bolder colours.

The set, costing a mere £59, includes two chairs and a bistro table – perfectly sized for enjoying a morning coffee or an evening glass of rosé. Imagine: a balmy evening, good company, and a chilled beverage enjoyed al fresco. The foldable design is a clever solution for those short on space, allowing the set to be neatly tucked away when not in use. The fact that it arrives fully assembled is a detail often overlooked, but a welcome one after a long day.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the bistro set is built to last. Constructed from galvanised steel, it’s significantly more resistant to corrosion than typical garden furniture, sidestepping the frustrating problem of unsightly rust. <Heritage Yellow 3 Piece Garden Bistro Set – £59 at ASDA. Delivery is available for tomorrow, meaning you could be basking in the sun with your new furniture by the weekend. The question now isn't whether to buy it, but whether to extend the patio season with an extra round of Pimms.
