What is the name of the long narrow table that goes behind a sofa if your sofa sits out in the room?

I can not think the the name that is bouncing around in my head for anything. Googling is not helping!

It is not sofa table or console.

Thanks!

I call it a sofa table, but now it is used in the foyer. Does that help?

This is a strange as in uncommon, fancy word I'm thinking of. It isn't any of the above.

Well, "we" (like i said) always called it a coffee table. Doesnt mean thats what the correct term was. And my mom used to put her coffee cups (not used) on that table, on a tray.

Sorry. I thought maybe other's called it that too. (and yes, i realize the one in the front of the couch was called that as well.) Maybe it was just my mom! LOL!
