Idaho, welcome to the Phorum. That stain doesn't look too bad. I would start by cleaning the top well with gojo hand cleaner, not the stuff with pumice, the cream stuff and see if it helps any. I had a top that someone had placed a plant that leaked on it and took away the whole finish to the wood. Tried to "patch" and color. Ended up just stripping the whole top. Came out nice. Of course there is the other option to buy a nice doily and put it on the top.
