This extends and comes with a bench. 10%off if you sign up. Just wondering if something with a light top would work though? Alternatively would a round extending table fit and just have a couple of stackable or folding chairs for extra guests if you can't store matching chairs? http://www.westelm.co.uk/parker-expandable-dining-table-g830?quantity=1&attribute_1=Medium%20(152%20-%20203%20cm)

Hi there, I would check out West Elm (they have two stores in London/Kingston but have a lovely website depending on where you are based). Their focus in very mid-century modern which would complement this space well as many of the wood finishes they use in their pieces are walnut. I would go for a round table here. Consider a rug under the table to brighten the space (there are great indoor-outdoor options that are easy to maintain under a dining table). Upholstered chairs rather than wood chairs may help to break up the dark wood feel. If your budget will allow, using a bright white paint or even an easy neutral light grey (cornforth white from F&B as an example) will brighten this space and give it a bit more of a fresh and modern feel. Some roman blinds on the windows would also give the space a finished look. I hope this was helpful! Good luck!

The kitchen looks lovely. I like the table and it works well with the lights and I'd put the eames chairs with it or a mix of chairs (an old church chair is good for keeping kids colouring in stuff in but not sure of their age! ) What wood were you looking at? However having said that, your table is butt against the bar and the legs on this table are wider than the top so if you went for this one I think you'd need to go for a short table. As kikiamack said pedestal tables are good although hard to find a rectangular one (!) or as colourhappy said an old farmhouse one would work. Would an extending table also be an option? How many do you need to seat on a regular basis? Are the lights centred over the bench?
