Hi!
We have a simple nice STURDY wooden table and chair set from Shopko- not exactly a small local business, I know, but the play table is seriously more sturdy than our dining room table!
IKEA has nice inexpensive play tables and chairs, wooden and plastic, all kinds. Again, huge corporation.
To support a local business as well as good bang for the buck I would suggest checking out unfinished furniture places. If its someone local they'll always be willing to make just what you want, if they don't already have it. And it might be pretty inexpensive. You can always paint unfinished furniture with a high gloss finish for easy cleanup.
Garage sales, goodwill, kid consignment stores are good if you want something cheap and used and most likely plastic.
Antique stores usually have little wooden benches or stools, and you can find coffee tables everywhere.
The kids' alltime favorite play table is, naturally, our living room coffee table. Which used to look nice!
Good luck,
