“GUINNESS BEST PUBS” is an initiative by Guinness, the iconic Irish beer brand, that certifies pubs worldwide that serve high-quality Guinness beer. These pubs are acknowledged not just for offering Guinness, but also for their quality control, adherence to the atmosphere of traditional Irish pubs, and top-tier service.

Crispy and Fluffy! High-Quality Fish & Chips

One must-try item at umbrella is their Fish & Chips (¥1,290).

Fish & Chips, a dish born in England, is a beloved staple at Irish pubs. And umbrella’s Fish & Chips are simply amazing.

Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, they pair perfectly with beer. A malt vinegar option is available for those who prefer, and it’s so good you’ll find it hard to stop at just one.

Extensive Food Menu

umbrella offers a wide variety of food, from tapas to hearty meals.

With dishes like sausages, steaks, and ajillo, the menu is perfect for pairing with drinks.

If you’re unsure what to order, the daily specials board is a great place to start.

The “Bonito Yukhoe” from the specials board we ordered that day was a total hit! Absolutely delicious.
