When choosing umbrellas for restaurants, you want durability, ease of use, sun and rain protection, and a style that complements your space. Pricing typically reflects quality—you usually get what you pay for. The low-end umbrellas priced at $100 and under on Amazon may look great initially, but are difficult to clean and don’t hold up well in high winds or in commercial settings where they need to be opened and closed daily. We tend to specify mid-range to high-end umbrellas based on our clients’ needs. Shown here is just a small part of our umbrella line. If you need something more specific or in certain colors, please give us a call.

Below are the top types and specific recommendations for restaurant-grade umbrellas based on function and value:

Key Considerations:

Commercial-grade frame (aluminum or fiberglass for rust-resistance)
UV and fade-resistant fabric (like Sunbrella or Olefin)
Wind stability: Weighted bases or anchorable
Size and shape (typically 7.5' to 11' diameter; round or square)
Tilt or cantilever features (for adjustable shading)
