My favourite breakfast place BY FAR! It is simply the best spot! Delicious food, best mocha and friendliest staff!
Red Umbrella you never disappoint!
Love it!!!
The menu looked well planned and diverse, and the staff was kind and helpful. The Red Umbrella Burger was genius. Typically when a place names a burger after themselves they just throw bacon and and some weird sause on it and call it there's. The Red Umbrella Burger is not typical. The amount of well-planned vegetables was enjoyable, the patty was of great size and well cooked, and the sauce was complex and wonderfully tasty. I partnered it with there French Vanilla Latte, witch came in a lovely presentation and was prepared very well. I was pleasantly suprized and would definitely recommend Red Umbrella Cafe to anyone.
I have tried a couple of places downtown but by far the Red Umbrella is definitely the best spot for a brunch. Food is outstanding and beyond my expectations. I should probably try the other items on its menu because I always order my favorite: the Deluxe breakfast. No words can describe how delicious that scramble eggs are. Service is great and always friendly. I definitely recommend the Red Umbrella Cafe!
Never write reviews but this place deserves it. My family of 6 and I went to this place last week and we all left saying it was the best breakfast we had ever had. So good!
Wonderful little cafe. Service, food and atmosphere were all excellent! Would highly recommend to anyone in the English Bay Area.
Excellent food, friendly waitress (well she was Irish so of course she was friendly) , great value for money, very busy and maybe a tad longer of a wait but worth it �
Absolutely love it! Visiting Vancouver and it was my second time there today! The staff is so friendly, the atmosphere is great! And the menu is great, the food is delicious! �
Had a great brunch! Had the deluxe breakfast with a coffee. The restaurant is a little squishy but typical for Vancouver. Line up outside the door, which means to us it's very popular! Fresh home made bread, so good and they even had samples of the brownies ( which were so delicious and not too sweet) great service- allowed us to move outside when there was a free table. You can bring your dog and they have dog bowls for outside. Great atmosphere, close to English Bay! Coffee is strong
Petit bistro charmant, l'omette au saumon sauvage un pur délice �
A charming bistro style and delicious food!
My boyfriend has taken me there for coffee before, but yesterday he took me there for brunch for the first time.
I tried the Breakfast Salad, and it was fantastic! Seemed like an expensive price, but it was a very large serving of a variety of different ingredients, all of which tasted fresh and perfect. The eggs, bacon, and avocado were some of my favourite parts!
We stayed at the Best Western Sands and the second day we discovered the Red Umbrella Cafe. We loved it so much that we had breakfast there again. It’s only a short walk from the hotel.
Amazing food. Lovely staff. Good coffee.
Best food and best people in the west end. Nothing compares.
Great little cafe service was excellent and food super good
Great food, great staff and a very reasonable price �
We chose this without research, just a whim and a good vibe about the place. And we were not mistaken. Not the biggest place in the world, there was a constant flow of customers many of whom seemed like regulars. The food was very good and there was a lot of choice. The service was first class and we would recommend The Red Umbrella with hesitation to anyone who is in this area of Vancouver. A small gem of a place.
It was really busy when I went on Sunday but once seated we were served quickly. BLT had super crispy bacon and the deluxe breakfast was everything you want for weekend brunch. Will be going again soon!

Nice service and reasonably priced food. Had a simple but delicious breakfast here and was served very quickly in a friendly manner. Would definetly go back again!
Great breakfast! Sausage a bit dry , but bacon crisp and egg well seasoned. Best part---- the bread!!! This tiny cafe bakes their own airy multi grain whole grain bread fresh. It's rich and flavourful. U will want to, and u can buy bread to bring home .
We found our new breakfast spot!!!
Wow! What quality and such nice attentive staff... We'll be back. (Soon!)
Everything was Perfect!. Im surprised there aren't more good reviews for Red Umbrella, I absolutely LOVE the breakfast here, it has so much flavour and tastes fresh. The bread is made in house (The Rye bread is delicious, you must try it!) and the coffee was fantastic. Service was good and the place was very bright and clean, I love everything about it. Will be going back again and again!
Food was good. Latte was great and drip coffee good too. They didn't give you much eggs though if you order scrambled. Good service.
Brunch, Yes please!. Great tasty menu that has everything you could want for breakfast/brunch. I had the classic breakfast with a side of french toast. Eggs were good, the hash browns were interesting, they were served with sauteed onions and something else? I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Sausages were good, and the french toast was done right. Good meal :)
Under new management, homemade bread is amazing. The veggie delight sandwich here is great. Very fresh and tasty. The bread (which is made in store) is absolutely amazing. The best bread I've ever had.
Amazing place to be at in the morning! Delicious food and service worth way more than they actually charge! Anything you pick from the menu will be very good quality and designed really pretty, we have tried four different dishes:) It was our first morning in Vancouver and for the first place we walked in to we were more than satisfied! My friends and I are hospitality students, and we guarantee you that's the place you want to go back to for caring people and lots of sun through the window:)
A Lonely Diner. A lonely diner sits on a street corner waiting, as the daytime fades into nighttime, for somebody, anybody, to stop by at least for a little while. The weather-worn exterior doesn't help it, as it struggles to be noticed apart from the excitement and bright lights of nearby Denman Street. People just walk on past, already having satisfied their cravings... they walk on past this lonely diner not far from where hungry people go... not far, yet too far already.
One couple did notice, however, and so took a seat inside. The diner was just a bit more content now.
Inside, we could hear Michael Buble singing softly, and it would be a proper analogy to say that as far as diners go, this diner was more Michael Buble than Frank Sinatra. The interior decor had a charm of its own, although it definitely was missing a few key items that would give it the proper feel.
The lone waitress was friendly, and was nice enough to turn up the heat when she saw that we had switched seats to be away from the window. They also gave me a nice new pile of mayonnaise, when the mayonnaise for my fries that I initially got was exhausted.
The food was decent, the service was decent, but the diner still felt lonely. We were in fact the only customers for the entire 30 minutes that we were there (we were there on Sunday evening at around 6:00 p.m.). After we left, I'm sure the diner felt lonely once again...
We stayed for 4 nights on English Bay and for our 2nd breakfast, we came to the Red Umbrella.
Food…as you can see…is generous and beautifully presented…and DELICIOUS. The coffee was amazing. The staff were fun and attentive. We even got to watch birds trying to make a nest in the awning outside. Great place to eat and people watch. Davie is a fun street.
We’re vegetarian and there were tons of fresh choices for us and bacon lovers alike.
We’ll be back!
Just so good! Totally worth the hype and what I read about this place! Wait was totally worth it! Lovely staff, they are so sweet and helpful considering how busy they get!
Best sandwich I have tasted in vancity!
Don’t miss their Nutella brownie! Worth it!
I was absolutely blown away by the breakfast! Huge portion with fresh food, a good variety and the most friendly staff. I sat outside and it was so nice to enjoy a beautiful meal in the sunshine. Place is clean, food is amazing and the staff couldn’t be nicer. This is an absolute must when in Vancouver. I highly recommend trying their bread - it’s made in house!
Best breakfast I had in West End Vancouver! I Had omelette with avocado and smoked salmon, a Flat white coffee also. Sure I will come back on weekend for Eggs Benedict
It was a great place to be with friends and enjoyed a nice breakfast. Food was tasty, a bit pricey, they attended us fast and was quite good overall. It is a small place but liked it.
Extraordinary fantastic taste of food! Every single bite is a tast of rainbow and heaven in mouth. The food is so flavourful and delicious. The presentation is spectaculars and it satisfy eyes too. Delicious homemade bread, the perfect cook potatos, real great quality bacon, excellent always fresh salad and greens, THE Best HOLANDAISE sauce on the world! Did I mention the wonderful friendly staff?!! There are multiple vegetarian options on menu as also for real meat lovers!
Redumbrella is on top 10 best breakfast place in vancouver for a reason!
Higly recommend who want guaranteed delicious breakfast and coffee for reasonable price!
The owner is a genius!
On pic I have Redumbrella benny and vegetarian benny
Enjoyed every bite - especially the home made multigrain bread. Good news: nicely prepared meals, competent service, no line up. Bad news: no eggs Benedict on weekdays.
