There is no builtin tags that allow to make a table that I'm aware of, butn as darkfrei pointed, you can sort of make tables with the code tags (which allow you to write in a monospaced font)

Please excuse the necro, I did not wish to create a duplicate request.

I was about to create a small table in a post, and found that the expected BB tags were missing. I see now that phpBB doesn't have them natively, but does allow for them to be created as custom tags according to this thread on phpBB forums.
https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... 5#p4078025

Please may we have these custom tags added? I expect that some posts would benefit greatly when trying to present information that could best be shown as a table. I will use code tags for the time being, even if they don't look so nice.

[Edit to add]
Formatting tables within code tags is frustratingly awkward and needs constant previews to get acceptable results. I accidentally submitted an incomplete bug report during the process, and it took far longer than it really should have See here
