The drawer can be used for silverware, linen napkins, whatever needs to be kept clean. The bottom shelf can be used as a wine rack, you can purchase one that's small to fit a few bottles. HomeGoods, Walmart, and even a liquor store might have one. Along side that, put wine glasses on the shelf up side down, so you can just wipe the bottoms when you need them. The top, try to put some nice cloth on the top of the wood then put plates, linen napkins, silverware. I would use this as a place to setup for a buffet, but use something else to put food on. It's to small to serve food on. Good Luck!
