Hi, we have cherry cabinets and tile floor (beige)next to hardwood floor (light maple) in the family room. We went with a metal and glass topped dinette. Metal is dark silver. It looks great. Don't know what your budget is but this may give you some ideas... http://www.tennesseemfg.com
A lighter color wood would work well, such as maple, hickory, or if available, sassafras. Keep in mind, though, that maple is a soft wood and will dent much easier than the other woods mentioned.
