I have 2. One is a real shop with a metal lathe, vertical mill, drill press, hydraulic press, and welders and other stuff. That's all in a separate building.
My 2 printers, a Mk3s and an A1 min and AMS sit nicely on a pine log table that's 21"x49". It has a large drawer that I gridfinitied and holds everything I need to completely disassemble a 3D printer, repair it, and reassemble. I also 3D printed a system with 2 small drawer that hold things like screws, magnets, and heat set inserts. A cheap rolling 5 shelf unit sits tucked into a corner and holds some extra 3D stuff and also some basic hand tools for home repairs so I don't need to go out the real shop at midnight when it might be -30F out there for doing a quick fix.
I have 2 plastic totes to store my filaments in under the table. This helps manage my filament inventory by limiting the amount I can store. Though there is room for excess as needed for bigger projects.
My work surface is my desk with my computer, papers, and other miscellaneous stuff in the 3 drawers it has.
