Would it be fair to refuse to seat single diners?

If it's a diner it should have a counter specifically for single diners.

Some restaurants will prioritize groups over solo diners for certain tables. For instance if a 6-top opens up and a group of six is waiting for a table, many restaurants would seat the group even if the solo has been waiting longer

What about offering a couple of solos who are waiting to share a table?

Now that I think of it, I've been to restaurants that insisted solo diners eat at the bar. I have no problem eating at the bar, but there was another solo diner once and I remember him being told he couldn't be seated by himself.

I've shared bar tables with randos before, I think in euro sharing tables is a normal thing, but maybe I'm m isinformed

Generally that's what the bar is for.

It occurs to me that I've never been to a restaurant fancier than like, Wendy's, as a solo diner. I'm always with someone else, either friend, family, or my gf.

I never thought about how weird I would feel at a sit-down restaurant as a solo diner. It has literally never occurred to me to think about it until now.

To refuse them outright? That would be unfair. But I wouldn't expect the restaurant to give a single diner a big table. They can wait for one of the smaller tables to open up.

A single diner also theoretically should be a quicker turn around too. It's 1 meal, 1 person eating, nobody for them to sit and chit chat with, you're talking about maybe a 30 minute turn around from seating to eating to leaving.
