"Since it’s in a quiet end of the market, this easy-to-find bar makes a great pre-dinner cocktail spot before heading to dinner in the hall or across the street to City Winery. It’s also the place to kick start your food hall stroll with a bang—we like the Soju Think You The Bomb: it’s sweet and comes with fresh diced strawberries, strawberry soju, calpico, and Sprite for a little fizz. The food here is pretty skippable as the bulgogi beef bowl is too dry and under-seasoned, and the K-dog tends to be flavorless despite its sugary coating. And these are the most exciting picks." - juli horsford, nina reeder, jacinta howard
"Roses are great, but what we really want is a bouquet of Korean corn dogs wrapped in pink and red butcher paper. If the thought of a hot dog bouquet sends your heart pitter-pattering, head to Umbrella Bar in Ponce City Market to snag yours for yourself or a special somebody. They’ve got drink specials, too." - juli horsford
"Stop on the first floor of Ponce City Market and hit up Umbrella Bar when you want a good cocktail to kick start your food hall stroll. The slightly fizzy, sweet Soju Think Your The Bomb tastes as cute as the name is, with fresh diced strawberries, strawberry soju, calpico, and Sprite. Skip the food, the batter on the Korean K-Dog is a little bland, so even the signature sugar coating couldn’t bring it back to life, while the bulgogi beef bowl is too dry and under seasoned." - Jacinta Howard

"Umbrella Bar opens on May 27 in the newly expanded portion of Ponce City Market's central food hall. The venue features counter seating and additional island bar seating, designed to mimic the vibrant street scenes and night markets of Asia. The menu offers Korean street food items such as kimbop, japchae dumplings, bulgogi beef tater tots, tornado potatoes, and Korean corn dogs. Drinks include Korean beers and soju slushies made with Melona fruit-flavored ice cream bars." - Beth McKibben
